Scammers preying on people’s fears

Scammers are preying on the fears and insecurities of Americans during the pandemic, and Senator Tim Scott says it’s “a special kind of evil” that would target vulnerable communities and he wants the criminals prosecuted to the full extent of the law.  Scott’s office yesterday was made aware of one such scam.  That one involves criminals posing as Scott and other public figures offering “emergency grant dollars” for a percentage of the promised amount.
