Scams targeting cannabis establishments

CCB Staff have been made aware of scams targeting cannabis businesses in Vermont.

Scammers posing as utility companies place phone calls, often knowing key account details as well as the fact that the business is cannabis-related. Some reports have said the phone calls also spoof a local number. The callers then demand payment under threat of the power being shut off. One report detailed that the caller specifically mentioned a cannabis fee for power.
