A new mail scam is circulating in the area, according to Crane Credit Union. Officials say scammers are posing as French Lick Resort and sending letters claiming recipients have won a free vacation, including a multi-day hotel stay and spending money. The letters include a phone number for recipients to call to claim the offer. However, authorities warn that the offer is fraudulent. Those who call the number may be asked to provide credit or debit card information, putting their personal and financial security at risk. Residents are urged not to respond to the letters and to contact French Lick Resort directly if they have questions about the legitimacy of any offer.
