The North Lyon County Fire Protection District is warning businesses and residents of a scam in which callers are asking for donations for a fire magnet campaign.
This morning, a local Fernley business called the District asking if North Lyon County Fire Protection District would be handing out magnets. The person said a caller had asked for donations for a Fire Magnets Campaign, and said the fire District would be handing out the magnets.
“It is not true that this District is participating in a Fire Magnets Campaign, and those who receive such calls should call the Sheriff’s Office,” District Fire Chief Scott Huntley said.

We are legit, despite what one may think, just to set this straight as a project development manager. In fact I'm the one working on this project. We always have a distribution agreement signed by a representative from the fire department before we contact businesses in the communities we work with. Not sure how this confusion came about. I, personally apologize for any and all misunderstandings.
