Beware of Scams
The North Dakota Board of Medicine has received information on a new scam targeting physicians in North Dakota. Physicians are being called on their cell phones from individuals claiming to be investigators with the Board of Medicine - and the phone number that pops up on the caller ID is the same number as the Board (450-4060). The scammers have also been sending letters allegedly from the Board - some even appearing to be on Board letterhead - claiming that licenses have been immediately suspended. Sample of scam letters can be found by accessing the following: scam letter 1 and scam letter 2. If you receive these calls or letters - hang up and dial the Board's line directly. Please also report this to your local law enforcement.
