The scammers are out there trying to trick you out of your money. Reporter Taylor Thacker says the San Bernardino County Superior Court has a warning…
San Bernardino Superior Court officials are warning the public to be aware of scammers posing on the phone as members of the court or law enforcement. Court personnel have received several reports of phony officials calling members of the public, saying an arrest warrant has been issued for failure to show up on a scheduled court date or for jury duty. The callers told people to purchase cash cards from convenience stores to pay off the warrants. Officials do not call people over the phone to remedy court issues or fines. Instead, notifications are sent by mail on official stationary. Members of the public who receive these types of calls from scammers should just hang up. If the calls persist, call local police or the Sheriff’s Department.
