Phishing Scams Continue to Target Licensees: Scam calls and emails are impersonating Pharmacy Commission staff and attempting to extort money or obtain sensitive information, such as license or Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) registration numbers. Contact the Commission at 360.236.4946 to verify suspicious activity. For concerns about someone claiming to represent the DEA or Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), report the call to DEA’s Extortion Scam reporting program or FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center.
The Washington State Pharmacy Quality Assurance Commission (PQAC) and the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) publish a joint newsletter each quarter.
