Southwestern Michigan College is telling everyone in the area not to fall for a phone scam that shows up on caller ID as the college. SMC tells us someone calls with a high pressure sales pitch for cruises with the ID indicating the caller is from the college. It’s not from the college. A Dowagiac women reported getting one of the calls this week and notified the college. SMC President David Mathews tells us SMC suspects “this is a number-masking technique used by unscrupulous telemarketers throughout the country. SMC is obviously not in the travel sales business.” If you get such a call, just hang up.
