Scam Alert in Troy, IL

Troy PD has issued the following the statement:

***SCAM ALERT***
The Troy Police Department has been made aware of the public being sold fake “Buy One Get One Free” Dominos gift cards, throughout Troy and surrounding cities. The cards are being sold by a young juvenile white male, about six years old, who was last described wearing a dirty pink baseball uniform with a southern accent. The juvenile is likely accompanied by an adult, and he tells victims he’s selling the cards as a fundraiser for his baseball team. If you see this juvenile, or suspect anyone else of selling fake promotional cards, please contact the Troy Police Department. (618-667-6731) It’s always a good idea to call the fundraiser businesses to see if gift cards are valid if you suspect any suspicious activity.
