We have received reports of consumers getting unsolicited phone calls from manipulated phone numbers that identify as The Office of the Attorney General on the caller-id display.
Upon answering the phone, either a recording or a person posing to be the "Attorney General of the state" will be on the line. Be assured, this is not the RI AG's office calling.
If you get one of these phone calls, you should hang up the phone. Do not press anything or speak to anyone who is trying to obtain personal information.
