Fraud
South Hill
Incident # 24-341-01254
Deputies were flagged down by a woman who said she had just been scammed into sending money to someone who claimed to be a Pierce County Sheriff’s deputy. The woman was still on the phone with the scammer, so one of the deputies asked to speak with them. When the deputy introduced himself, the scammer hung up. The woman said she received a call from an alleged deputy who said she had a warrant for failing to respond for jury duty. The woman followed the caller’s instructions and sent the caller $5,120 worth of crypto currency. The deputies took photos of the receipts and informed the victim that deputies will never contact her to ask for money.
