(State Attorney General issues a warning)...Rob Bonta has issued an alert warning to Californians.
Be aware of fake COVID 19 testing locations and websites. The Attorney General says with an increased demand for COVID 19 due to the recent spike in cases, scammers are exploiting vulnerable individuals looking to determine whether they have the virus. These unverified sites pose as legitimate companies and healthcare clinics offering COVID 19 testing. However, after receiving payment for the test, these fake testing sites often times fail to provide their patients with their test results. These sites may also ask for a patient's personal identifiable information with the intention of committing fraud. If you suspect you have been scammed by a fake COVID 19 Testing site, you are encouraged to notify law enforcement and file a complaint with the Attorney General's Office online.
