Description of the Scam - In this scam, a pharmacy receives a phone call from someone who claims to represent the Louisiana Board of Pharmacy. The caller ID shows a Board of Pharmacy telephone number or NABP’s official telephone number, which bad actors have spoofed to appear legitimate. The caller then attempts to solicit information from pharmacy staff, including information that may constitute personally identifiable information (PII). Caller ID spoofing is a technique used by scammers to make an incoming call appear to originate from a trusted or official source. A familiar phone number on caller ID does not confirm the identity of the caller.
State of Emergency - Lobby
When deemed appropriate, the Governor of the State of Louisiana is authorized to declare a State of Emergency and issue a proclamation directing certain actions and suspending certains laws and rules. Pharmacies and pharmacists should be aware of the Board's standing rule relative to a state of emergency. It is automatically activated by a gubernatorial declaration of a state of emergency. No notice is required by the Board. The regulation can be found in Section 519 ~ State of Emergency, available on the Laws & Regulations page on the Board's website.
