The Hawaii Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs has sent out another warning about phone scammers impersonating government officials.
The scammers are targeting medical professionals, particularly dentists, trying to obtain professional information, according to a March 31 news release.
Individuals have been pretending to be state officials contacting current and former dental license holders, claiming that their license is under investigation.
The department has recently received reports of these phone scams.
A similar warning was issued to dentists in November.
