Oregon Humane Society warns of pet loss scam

The Oregon Humane Society has reported a scam targeting lost pet owners. Scammers impersonate the organization, claiming that missing pets are injured and demanding payment for medical care. These calls appear to come from the humane society's main number. The organization advises pet owners to be cautious if asked for payment through services like Zelle or Venmo. Pet owners who suspect they are being scammed should hang up and contact the Oregon Humane Society directly at (503) 285-7722.
