Horizon Health Network warns Harvey residents about phone scam

Horizon Health Network is warning residents in Harvey about a potential scam in the area.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the health authority said someone had been calling and claiming to work for the Harvey Health Centre and asking for credit card information.

“Horizon will not call to ask you for credit card information,” the post said.

It said if you receive a call like this, or for education on protecting yourself from scams, please contact the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501 or visit antifraudcentre.ca.

The Courier reached out to Horizon Health Network for comment and further details on the scam and is awaiting a response.
