GRANT COUNTY, Wis. — The Grant County Sheriff’s Office said several people called Wednesday saying they received a scam call regarding payment for a coronavirus vaccine.
According to a Facebook post, the voicemail and recorded message said if the call was not returned, the recipient would be charged $249 for their vaccine.
The post said the call appears to come from a company called “Vtech” with area code 786.
Officials said the call is a scam and anyone who receives the call should not return it.
Authorities also said you would never be charged for a vaccine by a third-party company.
