An investigation is underway after a Delmar woman received a call from two people pretending to be police.
Mary Leigh Montesano picked up her phone one afternoon last month.
She spoke to someone who identified himself as a Bethlehem police officer.
He told her that someone was using her credit card information to purchase several items to make a bomb.
They asked her for her bank account information and Social Security number.
An investigation is underway after a Delmar woman received a call from two people pretending to be police. She was told that someone was using her credit card information to purchase several items to make a bomb.
That’s when she got in contact with Bethlehem Police on her own, who told her this was a scam.
Montesano closed all her bank accounts to be safe, saying she is just happy things didn’t end up worse than they did.
