HALL CO. SHERIFF’S OFFICE FACEBOOK POST:

“As unimaginable as this is to decent people, there are a couple of guys who have been approaching local businesses posing as spokesmen for Syfan Logistics, asking for financial donations for Hurricane Helene victims. ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐—ด๐˜‚๐˜†๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€!

Yes, Syfan Logistics has been collecting non-perishable items all week for hurricane victims (so far, 12 trailers have been filled thanks to the generosity of the community), but ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐˜† ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜ ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜†๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ฟ-๐˜๐—ผ-๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ฟ to solicit money or goods.

Unfortunately we do not have a good description of the offenders at this time. If and when we get more details, weโ€™ll let you know. What we ask today is that you be very mindful as you donate especially if you are giving money.”
