If it is not an emergency but you still need the police call the
O.P.P dispatch centre at 1-888-310-1122.

Tips
Telemarketing Scams
If someone calls you on the phone advising you have won something, and then asks you for your credit card information or to send them money or a cheque do not give it to them! Get a phone number where you can call them back and then call Phonebusters at 1-888-654-9426 or visit their website at www.phonebusters.com to report the scam.
