⚠️⚠️We have not personally had this happen that we know of, but wanted to make you all aware in case it moves into Nevada. So many of you travel to or spend part of your time in California as well...another reason to keep you all aware just in case your pet accidentally gets lost there.⚠️⚠️

⚠️ Scam Alert ⚠️

Please help us get the word out! There have been multiple accounts of an AI-driven scam targeting pet owners searching for their lost pets in California. Scammers will use lost pet flyers to contact pet owners. Pretending to be a staff member from a specific veterinary practice, they will claim that the missing animal has been dropped off at their hospital and is in need of emergency care/surgery. They will request money to cover the cost of the surgery.

While this scam isn't new, scammers have advanced their methods by using AI-generated photos of the pet owner's animal on the operating table, which they will text to the pet owner to make their story more convincing. These kinds of AI-generated scams are becoming increasingly common.

⚠️ A veterinary practice will not call you and demand over-the-phone payment for a lost pet or emergency care! If you receive a suspicious call or text, do not send money. Please call the practice directly using the phone number listed on its official channels to verify any claims about a missing animal.
