Adventure is calling, but safety always comes first. Whether you're exploring the sandy trails or heading to the back lakes, make sure your quad trip is one to remember for the right reasons.

Quick Trail Safety Tips:
✅ Gear Up: A DOT-compliant helmet is your best friend. Don't hit the trails without eye protection, gloves, and sturdy boots.
✅ Ride Sober: Alcohol and quads don't mix. Keep a clear head to stay in control.
✅ Know Your Limits: Stick to marked trails and avoid paved roads where quads are harder to handle.
✅ Respect: Slow down and give plenty of space to hikers or others on the trail. Avoid "roosting" or spraying debris to keep the trails friendly for everyone!

Ride safe today, so you can ride again tomorrow.

The Lakeshore Regional Police are warning of a surge in account takeovers involving ONE-TIME PASSCODES (OTP).

📱 Fraudsters are targeting accounts on Facebook, WhatsApp, banking platforms, and more. They trigger a legitimate code to your phone and then impersonate a friend or organization to trick you into sharing it.

🚩 Warning Signs:
· You receive an One-time passcode you didn't request.
· Someone claims they sent you a code “by mistake”.
· An urgent request from a contact seems out of character.

🛡️ How to Protect Yourself:
NEVER share your One-time Passcode: with anyone—not even friends or service providers.
VERIFY independently: Contact the person or company directly through a trusted number.
SECURE your accounts: Use strong, unique passwords and review your login activity regularly.

🆘 Already a Target?:
Report it to your local police and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.
