Tulsa Health Department warns of possible COVID-19 phone scams

Watch for fake calls about at-home testing, vaccines

The Tulsa Health Department has issued warnings about possible scams going around involving COVID-19.

THD said in a tweet that there are reports of people receiving calls from what appears to be the official health department phone number.

In one example, THD said the caller asks for personal information in exchange for an at-home COVID-19 test.

THD said you will never get a call asking for your private data like that.

The other possible scam involves the vaccine.

THD said the caller claims to be confirming your vaccine appointment.

The only way to confirm a vaccine appointment with THD is through the e-mail you receive after registering on the online portal.
