Lakewood lost power, again Cuyahoga County agency fixes mail mistake after scam concerns A Cleveland Heights woman's instinct to pause before paying a bill she received in the mail ended up exposing a problem at a Cuyahoga County government agency — and led to a fix that benefited other clients. Kimberly Smith received a letter from the Cuyahoga County Division of Senior and Adult Services saying she owed a certain amount and would be placed on a monthly payment plan.
The letter immediately raised red flags. It had no letterhead and no itemized list of individual charges. Smith, who currently receives services through the Western Reserve Council on Aging, was also unfamiliar with the agency named in the letter. Rather than pay the bill or ignore it, Smith decided to reach out for help.
Smith submitted a tip through the News 5 Cleveland contact form. Working with the Cuyahoga Scam Squad, Good Morning Cleveland anchor, Mike Brookbank, confirmed the letter was legitimate — but that someone at the Division of Senior and Adult Services had simply failed to use official letterhead. After the issue was brought to the agency's attention, caseworkers notified clients that the letter was not a scam, and new, more detailed letters were sent out.
