below is an article from the Barrie newspaper

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/warning-of-fake-firefighters-demanding-money-for-inspections-in-barrie-ont/article12301297/?cmpid=rss1

It outlines a scam in which two men (not in uniform) enter into a business and show a badge. They say they are with the Fire Department and are conducting an inspection of the fire extinguishers. After conducting their "inspection" they charge the

business owner for their visit.

I just wanted to make our Chamber of Commerce aware of this issue, in case the individuals decide to move south.

King Fire & Emergency Services echoes the comments from Barrie Fire Services in that, any

one conducting an inspection on behalf of King Fire & Emergency Services will be in uniform, will be in a marked Fire Department vehicle and will be able to produce photo identification upon request.

If our business owners are approached by these individuals, we encourage them to contact York Regional Police.

Should you or any members of the Chamber of Commerce have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.

Yours in fire safety,

Keith Wells, Captain

Fire Prevention Division, King Fire & Emergency Services
