Millions of people are desperate to get the COVID vaccine to the point they are showing up at mass vaccination sites hours before opening and sleeping in vehicles.

It's a story not just happening in Illinois but across the country and scam artists are preying on that desperation. Connie Unruh is the President of DeWitt County TRIAD and on the WHOW Morning Show implored folks to be careful before pursuing a vaccination opportunity before making sure it is legitimate.

Central Illinois mass vaccination sites are seeing people pulling up hours and hours ahead of opening and sleeping in vehicles trying to get vaccines. Unruh says don't let greed get the best of us.

Scams around unemployment benefits continue to circulate still as well. Unruh herself had unemployment benefits filed in her name. She says there are several options in those circumstances.

There is also a fraud hotline through the DeWitt County Sheriff's Office. You contact DeWitt County authorities through that number, 217-935-7867.
