The City of St. Joseph is urging residents and businesses to be on high alert following a recent spike in fraudulent emails from scammers posing as government representatives. These deceptive messages often feature official-looking logos and fake invoices, but officials remind the public that legitimate city emails will only end in dot-gov and will never request payment via wire transfer, gift card, or cryptocurrency. Anyone who receives a suspicious message should avoid clicking any links or attachments, and instead verify the communication by contacting the city directly through its official website.
