(INDIANAPOLIS) - The Indiana Attorney General’s Office is warning the public about a scam involving an invoice emailed to people nationwide that appears to come from the Office of Attorney General.
The email contains the name of an individual who works for a state contractor followed by an address and phone numbers corresponding to the Office of Attorney General's Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.
Officials say the invoices are not legitimate and should not be paid nor answered in any manner by those receiving them.
Those receiving the fake invoices are asked to file a complaint with the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division in order to document the scam.
Individuals should remember never to click on links in suspicious emails.
Clicking on links can result in computer viruses and other harmful malware.
