ALL DEPARTING TRAFFIC SHOULD REMAIN GROUND STOPPED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. INBOUND INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS WILL BE MANAGED ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS.”

DNREC Warns About Fraudulent Emails, Phone Calls

The Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) is asking businesses and organizations that currently hold or are applying for DNREC permits to watch for fraudulent emails and phone calls from people impersonating DNREC staff and requesting payment of permit and licensing fees.

Recent scam emails and calls have falsely told recipients that a permit application requires an additional fee or that a permit holder is behind on fee payments. Some fraudulent emails include real permit application numbers, fee amounts and staff names, which were likely taken from DNREC public notices. However, any attempt to solicit money from DNREC via email or telephone for licenses or permits is a scamming attempt, since those transactions are legitimately conducted either online via the DNREC website, or in person at DNREC offices across the state, including Delaware State Parks.
