CCB Staff have been made aware of scams targeting cannabis businesses in Vermont.
Scammers posing a utility companies make phone calls, often knowing key account details. They then demand payment under threat of the power being shut off.
This is just one of other scams that the CCB has learned of. We urge all licensees to use extreme caution with offering payments over the phone.
The Vermont Attorney General’s website has many resources about scam recognition and prevention, as well as a form for reporting scams.
