FBI in Utah warns against cyber scams

The FBI in Salt Lake City is warning residents again to be careful of cyber scams.Agents say they’ve heard from a number of Utah residents about suspicious e-mails, including some posing as government agencies, including the FBI.
The FBI office in Vernal has been getting three to four calls a week from local residents about the scams.
Some e-mails claim the recipient is the victim of fraud and requests personal information. Others seek money in order to collect prizes or avoid legal troubles.
Ken Porter, the FBI’s special agent in charge in Salt Lake City, urges residents simply to hit delete and avoid sending money or giving away personal information.
