Once again Boundary County is hit with a scam that seems too good to be true. A concerned citizen reports that someone claiming to be from Monster Energy Drinks wants to pay them to display signage on their vehicle for them.

These solicitations can come in the form of an email or a phone call, and their recruitment can seem so real. This offer from Monster has been confirmed as a scam.

Do not be taken in by these professionals and do not send any money or bank transfers for a promise of grand returns.

The Bonners Ferry Police Department asks that you call them will any offers that seem too good to be real, so that all of our local citizens can be notified.

Please call (208) 267-2412 for scam alerts or 911 for any police emergency.

Working together we can protect our local citizens from predators looking for a quick dollar at our expense.
