Boerne pool party -- BIG SCAM

The city of Boerne is informing residents about a scam involving the Boerne Municipal Pool.

A fraudulent individual has been advertising a large event at the pool, claiming to have invited 2,000 people.

This scammer has been promoting the fictitious non-event and is contacting potential vendors, according to Chris Shadrock, Boerne director of communications. The fraudulent schemer is asking for payment in exchange for a spot at the pool.

This came to light when a vendor, who had already paid, called city officials to confirm the event's authenticity. The amount the vendor paid has not been disclosed.
