Nevada AG asks public to report ‘price gouging’ due to coronavirus
As people buy out local stores’ supplies of food, water and toilet paper, Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford is warning customers to keep an eye out for unusually high prices.
We are cautioning all Nevadans to be aware of unusually high prices for consumer goods like hand sanitizer and protective masks due to #COVD19.
If you see price gouging in Nevada please call our Nevada AG Office at 775-684-1100, or report online at https://t.co/CwrmeYsAx2.
