The Greater Napanee Fire Department is warning residents about a scam involving fake fire safety inspectors going door-to-door.
As of June 23, 2025, several individuals have been reported falsely claiming to work for the fire department. They are offering unauthorized fire safety inspections at people’s homes.
Officials say the fire department is not conducting any door-to-door fire safety checks at this time. These visits are not legitimate, and residents should not provide any personal information.
Anyone who is approached is encouraged to report the incident to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre and learn more about protecting themselves from scams.
For questions or to verify a visit, contact the Greater Napanee Fire Department directly.
