Don't fall for scammers posing as Museum of Discovery

A spoofed robocall is making the rounds in Arkansas, trying to get your money.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — A spoofed robocall is making the rounds in central Arkansas, trying to get your money.

The Museum of Discovery says someone is pretending to be them, calling people and asking for donations —but don't fall for it.

The museum has been closed for months now after a pipe burst during the February snowstorm and nearly the entire space flooded.

The museum is a nonprofit, and accepts donations, but the CEO said they'll never randomly call you trying to collect.

"It's like the thing where you get an email saying that someone has left you a bunch of money and they need to get in touch with you," CEO Kelly Bass said. "I guess if you send a gazillion emails and two or three people bite, then it's worth your time."

Again, the museum is still currently under construction with new exhibits in the works. They plan to reopen to the public in August.
