By rssfeeds-admin TAYLOR COUNTY, Texas (KTAB/KRBC) – The Taylor County Sheriff’s Office (TCSO) is alerting people of a new scam targeting local businesses.
According to police, scammers pose as sheriff’s deputies and call places of business while falsely claiming that an employee has a warrant. Then, they try to make the employee leave to purchase gift cards to “clear the warrant.”
TCSO officials would like to remind people that this is a scam. Their deputies will never ask anyone to leave work to buy gift cards, and they will never demand payment through gift cards for any legal matter or warrant.
They would also like to remind you that if someone calls you claiming to be a deputy, do not rely on a name alone; hang up.
If you have questions about whether the warrant is valid, call the sheriff’s office at (325) 674-1300.
