Don't be a scam victim!

 
Worcester County Sheriff's Office

SCAM ALERT!

Please be aware of an ongoing phone scam in which the caller pretends to be a Commander from the Worcester County Sheriff's Office, using the name of a REAL deputy, and demands money for missed jury duty or an arrest warrant. THIS IS A SCAM! Neither the Worcester County Sheriff's Office or any Law Enforcement Agency will demand payment over the phone. Hang up immediately and do not arrange payment. Do not give out any personal or financial information.

Similar scams have involved impostors claiming to be with the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) or the IRS (Internal Revenue Service). If you believe you may have been a victim of a telephone scam (shared personal or financial info), call or office at 410-632-1112.
