• Remain calm and attempt to obtain as much information as possible from the caller.  

• If possible, record the conversation by using a recording feature on a smart phone or other device. 

• Listen carefully.  Be polite and show interest. 

• Write down the phone number and any other information displayed on the phone. 

• If possible, write a note to another Pack Member to call Law Enforcement.
