The Sheriff's Office has received multiple reports from citizens today that they received a call from someone representing themselves to be a Deputy of this agency. Multiple names were used such as Sgt. Watson, Deputy Smith, Lt. Brown, etc.....
They are saying that you've missed a court date or something similar and that there is an active warrant for your arrest and therefore you MUST pay us now over the phone or we will come pick you up and take you to jail.
IT'S A SCAM!!!!!
We (nor any other agency) will ever call you and tell you that you need to pay us money over the phone.....NEVER EVER!!!
Please don't fall for this. It is a common occurrence across the nation and many have fallen victim to it costing them hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
We understand that not everyone reads this page or has seen it on the news, so please share this information with everyone in your family, especially the older generation who may be more susceptible to such things.
