WAKEFIELD — The Michigan State Police say they are concerned about a recent rise in area residents falling victim to scams.

People most often call law enforcement about a possible scam, and they should, said Det. Sgt. Glenn Gauthier of the MSP Wakefield Post. Unfortunately, more people recently are calling after having been scammed for hundreds or thousands of dollars, he said.

“We get quite a few calls from citizens regarding scams,” Gauthier said. “People from all walks of life and all education levels have been unfortunate victims.”

It is heart...
