Notification from city of Sherman, TX that water boil order restriction has been lifted.

Got a text this morning saying there was a water main problem and water should be boiled. It said to check the city’s website for info. It did not say what city or who was calling. I do not live in a city and our water company’s website says nothing about it. Tonight I got a voicemail with the same info.
Valid number for Code Red Colorado. From our emergency management department for Morgan County. They always send a text and follow up with the phone call with the same message.

Definitely my county Sheriff’s Department with a message (recorded message) about an at-risk underage female in my local area. I know for certain this was a valid caller mid-June of 2022, because later i read about it in our local newspaper. Again, definitely a valid caller with a good reason to call.
Local Fire Dept. Called about a gas leak in the area & to shelter in place. This was in Santa Cruz, Ca.

Received call May 12, 2022 at 11:30 am CDST. Girls voice said Hi Grandma - I took day off from school - then later said I borrowed my friend's car at school to go get some headache medicine and had an accident. Man came on and said she was arrested and I need to withdraw money from bank for bail. Total scam - these people need a "day job", and stop bothering us old people.
This was a call from my local county testing the emergency notification system as part of severe weather awareness week. You can call and have your number removed if you want. Not spam.

12/8/2021 4:35pm PST - I live in the state of WA. Received a call from "Emergency Comm" on the caller ID, phone number 866-419-5000. I did not answer and received a voicemail. It appears this is a legitimate call from the county / emergency service. Here is the voicemail I received: Recorded female voice: "Attention: press any key or hold for an important message; Attention: press any key or hold for an important message; Attention: press any key or hold for an important message" Next an automated voice: "This a test message from Benton County Emergency Management. We are performing a test of the Code Red Emergency Notification System. If you have questions about the test or about Code Red please call 509-628-2600. This was only a test." Then I did a search of that phone number and it's legit. I was surprised!
