The Edmonds Police Department issued a warning on Tuesday about a growing number of impersonation scams aimed at local residents, with senior citizens identified as a primary target.
Authorities said the schemes involve fraudsters posing as trusted parties and have become increasingly sophisticated. The alert follows a broader pattern of rising impersonation scams that law enforcement agencies are monitoring to protect vulnerable community members.
Police urged residents to remain vigilant and to verify the identity of anyone requesting personal or financial information.
