(KLZA)-- As the COVID-19 vaccine distribution begins,  there are several signs of potential scams you should be aware of.

The scams include:
1) You are asked to pay out of pocket to get the vaccine.
2) You are asked to pay to put your name on a vaccine waiting list or to get early access.
3) Advertisements for vaccines through social media platforms, email, telephone calls, online, or from unsolicited/ unknown sources.
4) Marketers offering to sell or ship doses of the vaccine for payment. 

You should protect yourself and never give out your personal information to unknown sources.

HHS-OIG Hotline at 1800-HHS-TIPS
The FBI Hotline:  1-800-Call-FBI
