TBI warns of scam targeting high school athletes

FROM THE TENNESSEE BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION

Heads up for high school athletes!

We’ve heard about a scam involving an individual posing as being from MTSU’s football program. The subject asks for game film, alleges an offer from the university, and then demands a fee to hold a spot at an allegedly required camp.

These offers are fraudulent. And they may not be the only ones out there, so stay alert! Don’t click links in email attachments, texts, or DMs. And never send money to someone who DMs you.
