As the holiday season approaches, the Cullman Police Department urges residents to be vigilant about rising scam attempts, particularly those involving major shipping carriers like USPS, UPS, FedEx, and online retailers like Amazon. If you receive a suspicious email, text, or phone call claiming to be from any of these entities, contact the Cullman Police Department at 256-734-1434 before responding or sending any money. Do not send funds to the potential scammers without first verifying the legitimacy of the request with the police. Being proactive can help protect you from falling victim to holiday-related fraud.
