There are several law enforcement agencies and pharmacies in Iowa participating in a national effort to rid homes of unwanted, unused or expired medications on Saturday.
This scam, which is surfacing in Central Iowa, involves a caller who claims they are from Amazon. The scammer will begin the conversation with a claim that you've made a large purchase on Amazon, and will ask you to pay the purchase off. If you do not pay for this "purchase", they say you will be turned over to the Federal Trade Commission.
