The Mercer County Sheriff's Department is warning area residents of a COVID-19 Scam. 

Investigators say there is a woman posing as a Health Department inspector, offering special COVID19 food service certificates for a cash fee. 

She is described as dark blonde, driving a cream-colored Toyota Prius, and wearing a royal blue scrub top and pants. 

There is no such thing as a COVID19 food service certificate. 

If you are approached with an offer of this nature, contact authorities immediately.
