FRAUD ALERT:
Recently an elderly woman was contacted by someone claiming to be a “Federal Inspector General.” The would-be victim was told that she needed to withdraw a significant amount of cash from her bank account and turn it over to this individual or face criminal charges. Fortunately local authorities had been alerted and stopped the transmission of $26,000 just before it happened.
Please do not fall victim to these types of fraudulent scams. Neither the Denali Commission Inspector General, nor any other Federal inspector general, will ever demand money or anything else of value from you to avoid criminal charges or some enforcement action. If you are contacted by someone making this demand, do not provide any personal or sensitive information to them, and let my office know using the online complaint form, File A Confidential Complaint – Denali Commission, and provide as much detail as possible.
Denali Commission Story
Introduced by Congress in 1998, the Denali Commission is an independent federal agency designed to provide critical utilities, infrastructure, and economic support throughout Alaska. With the creation of the Denali Commission, Congress acknowledged the need for increased inter-agency cooperation and focus on Alaska’s remote communities.
The Denali Commission Strategic Plan FY2023-2027 outlines the Commissioners’ vision for agency investments over the next five years.
