Local scamsPrinceton Police Chief Eddie Lewis reports that some Princeton area residents are falling for some of the scams on the Internet. Some of the latest ploys include Wal-Mart and calling a phone number in Spain. One involved a job offer, and many include lotteries. He warns everyone not to give out their back account numbers over the phone to anyone. “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is,” he counsels.
