ESTEVAN — Police agencies across the province are also warning the public of a scam reaching out to people by email.

The email letter claims to come from a representative of the Saskatchewan Police Commission and contains logos of several of the province’s municipal police agencies and the title “Summons to Appear”. 

The sender informs the recipient they are the subject of legal proceedings related to sexual offences, including offences involving minors. The email asks the recipient to respond to it and notes that the recipient will be arrested by local police.

 The emails are being sent from the [email protected] address.

Police are currently investigating this email scam.

“We would like to remind the public to never open emails from an unknown sender, always double check the email address and contact your local police if you feel you are the victim of a scam,” the Estevan Police Service said in press release on Thursday.
