Christian County Sheriff Warning Against Uptick In Scams

The Christian County Sheriff’s office has received numerous reports of people calling claiming to be a deputy with the Sheriff’s Office.  Victims are then told that they have missed a court date and have a warrant out for their arrest and are instructed to pay a fee over the phone.  This is a scam. 

 

The Christian County Sheriff’s Office is urging people to hang up. They say they will never have you pay money over the phone and warrants can only be handled in person.  Any time a money service, gift card, cashapp, or other similar method is requested, it is a scam.
