Another Phone Scam in The Area

The City of Sterling has received information that someone is calling local businesses stating they are with the Sterling Fire Department and their business is due for an Inspection.

The caller is requesting payment to delay or reschedule the Inspection. The Fire Department does not request payments for inspections. The best action is to hang up on these callers. Don’t be a victim, if you have questions contact the fire department directly.
