⚠️ NEW CASTLE COUNTY EMAIL SPOOFING SCAM WARNING

The New Castle County Division of Police is currently investigating a fraud case involving the spoofing of New Castle County government email addresses.

In this incident, a victim was applying for a permit and later received an email that appeared to be from New Castle County requesting additional payment related to the process. The email address was later determined to be a spoof of New Castle County’s official email address, with only slight variations in the name intended to appear legitimate.

As a reminder, ALL official New Castle County government email addresses end in .gov

For example:
PublicInformationOfficer@newcastlede.gov

If you receive an email claiming to be from any New Castle County government employee or department that does not end in .gov, it is fraudulent.

Please delete it immediately and do not click on any links or attachments within the message.

Here are some easy tips to remember when it comes to suspicious emails:

📧 Check the sender carefully – Scammers use emails that look real but have small changes.
🔗 Don’t click suspicious links or open unexpected attachments
⚠️ Watch for urgency – Scammers try to rush you into acting fast.
🔒 Never share personal info by email
✔️ Verify first – Confirm through an official phone number or website if something seems off.
