ATTENTION ALL VETERANS:
All:
We strongly recommend that you require proof of identity and a valid original discharge paper if you approached by any individual asking for money for any reason. We here at Bergen County have reason to believe that there is a person or persons claiming that we have sent them to you or your organization for cash/money. Please be aware that we have not sent them to you. Also, we require proof of veteran status and suggest that you get proofs from anyone asking at your bar, facility or on the phone for money regardless of how compelling their circumstance may seem. Please share this alert with your members and contact us if you know of anyone who has encountered this situation. If you have already been contacted and or gave cash please let us know.
This email is being distributed as per Bergen County Veteran Services, Director A.J. Luna, please use your careful discretion and contact at 201-336-6326 or 201-336-6329 with any questions or concerns.
