The Henderson Chamber of Commerce issued a warning Tuesday about a sales scam that may be targeting its members.

Gayle Rogers, executive assistant for the Henderson Chamber, said several members of her organization have recently been contacted by persons who claim they are selling magnet advertising on behalf of the chamber and city of Henderson. Neither organization authorized the promotion or sale of such ads, Rogers said.

Rogers said the Henderson Chamber is investigating the solicitations, which have come via telephone and e-mail.
