Petaluma, California police got multiple reports between January 15 and January 26 about a questionable pop-up COVID testing site in that city, according to KRON4 News.
Officers approached the site and asked for documentation, and they produced documents that they were operated by Crestview Clinical laboratory. Officers left the scene satisfied that all seems to be in order.
However, officers later learned that Crestview, when contacted, denied they have a site in Petaluma.
Officers returned to the site, to find the area empty. The pop-up site had disappeared.
However, police have also received reports from people who used the site earlier and have received results. So there may or may not be fraud involved.
Several jurisdictions in California, including San Francisco, and Marin counties have also reported suspicious pop-up COVID testing sites claiming to be operated by Crestview.
