Powhatan County wishes to warn residents about a fraudulent email scam targeting residents who submit applications to the Planning Department asking them to pay fees associated with their applications. The emails look official and include information directly from the applications.
If you receive an email requesting payment that you believe could be suspicious, do not click links or open attachments and instead contact Powhatan County Community Development at 804-598-5622.
