Your mother was right -- mind your own business. Shenango Township police said a Willowbrook Road did the right thing yesterday morning when she refused to provide information to an unknown caller. Police said the woman received a call about 11:30 a.m. from an individual claiming to have uncovered a mistake in the woman's medical insurance and requested that she provide personal checking account information. When she asked what company he represented, the caller hung up, police said. Officers remind anyone receiving calls like this not to give out personal information over the phone. Officers also urge anyone who received those types calls to press *57 to trace the call and then contact the police as soon as possible.
