Please be advised that there is a scam going around Coos County . We have received information from several people that they received a card in the mail which states there is a new program in the State of NH that helps pay for a funeral. The information states that the government will pay for some and the state insurance will cover the rest. THIS IS NOT TRUE. THERE ARE NO SUCH PROGRAMS.
