PPLATTE COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE2+ weeks agoAgencyWe have had reports of two different types of scam phone calls being made to citizens. One scam involves the scammer pretending to be a member of the Sheriff's Office and the scammer demands payment of fines, fees or a warrant over the phone. The Sheriff's Office does not contact individuals over the phone and ask for payments. If you are concerned that you may have a warrant or owe fines/fees please contact the Sheriff's Office directly or come by the office in person. The other scam involves the scammer pretending to be a member of the clergy and the scammer requests donations or gift cards. Citizens are encouraged to contact their church or other charitable organizations directly about making donations.46Like16

CCLAY COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE2+ weeks agoAgencyOnce again, scam callers are posing as a member of our office (using a real employee's name he found on our web site) threatening to arrest those who won't pay up for a warrant. One resident even said the scammer told him to meet at the Sheriff's Office. We started receiving reports of this on Friday, and they continue today. At least one resident reported the call came from 816-320-4564. When you call that number, it claims to be the Clay County Sheriff's Office, and it even says to hang up and call 911 if it's an emergency. Don't fall for it. All of our phone numbers start with 816-407. (Keep in mind that some scammers can spoof phone numbers, however.) Scammers like this also will try to keep you on the phone and will be aggressive and threatening. Remember: * WE NEVER CALL ABOUT WARRANTS OR DEMAND BOND PAYMENT OVER THE PHONE. * The only place you can post bond is inside our Detention Center lobby at 14 S. Water Street, Liberty, Mo. There are a whole bunch of cameras in and around there, too. * We do not accept electronic payments, gift cards or crypto currency. * You can call us at 816-407-3700 to verify any suspicious calls like this you may have received.46Like12
