The Kosciusko Police Department has been made aware of a scam and is warning the public.
A local company received a call inquiring about an employee. The scammer claimed to have a warrant for the employee’s arrest and requested money for bond.
“If law enforcement has a warrant for your arrest, you will be informed in person by law enforcement. And law enforcement will never ask you for money.” – Investigator Greg Collins, Kosciusko Police Department.
If you receive a call like this, never give out any personal or financial information. Report it to local law enforcement.
