🚨 SCAM ALERT – PLEASE SHARE 🚨

Please share this post to help protect your friends, family, and neighbors from becoming victims.

The Franklin County Sheriff's Office is currently investigating a scam involving an individual who is impersonating an employee of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

In this case, victims received a text with a link to follow regarding "suspicious activity on their account" then provided what appeared to be an official identification card and were instructed to withdraw money from their bank accounts and deposit the cash into Bitcoin ATM’s. Unfortunately, two victims have lost nearly $75,000 combined because of this scam.

Please remember:
❌ The Federal Trade Commission will NEVER ask you to withdraw cash from your bank account and make a deposit to a bitcoin ATM.

❌ Government agencies will NEVER instruct you to deposit money into a Bitcoin ATM to resolve a problem.

❌ NEVER send money, gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers to someone claiming to be a government official.

If you receive a call, email, text message, or social media message demanding money or directing you to deposit funds into a Bitcoin ATM, it is almost certainly a scam.

If you are unsure whether a communication is legitimate, hang up and contact the agency directly using a verified phone number or call your local law enforcement agency!

I am inviting public interest in a potential initiative to establish a Citizen's Police Academy, a program designed to educate citizens about general police procedures and practices through weekly classes at the police department. Each class would last approximately one hour and focus on the operations of our local police department, while also providing a broader understanding of law enforcement practices. The proposed program is anticipated to run for six to eight weeks, with potential expansion contingent upon public and interdepartmental interest. As this project is currently in the planning phase, its duration will be determined by the level of interest it generates. I welcome constructive feedback and look forward to engaging with the community in a positive and productive manner.

Happy Easter

Good morning,

We are thrilled to announce the launch of a new program that will work in perfect harmony with Eminence Shop with a Cop, spreading joy to every corner of our community! Introducing Helping E.L.F. (Eminence’s Littlest Friends), a program designed to support our youngest residents aged 0-4 years old. Since our little ones are not able to join us for Shop with a Cop, we wanted to ensure they're included and supported from now on. Let's come together to make a difference and encourage Eminence and Henry County to “Pack the PD!” with love and generosity! We welcome donations of new or gently used toys, clothes, socks, underwear, diapers, pull-ups, wipes, and more. You can drop off your donations at the PD at any time, and if no one is available, please use the parcel box inside the first set of doors. If it's full, kindly place your donation to the left of the entry door. Both lobbies are under 24-hour camera surveillance for added security. Please give new or gently used items that are in good condition, reflecting the love and care you'd want for your own family. This program will run throughout the year, with all items being distributed in December. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to us. Remember, donations for Shop with a Cop are accepted year-round. You can write a check and drop it off at City Hall or The PD, or use the QR code on our page for added convenience. Every donation goes directly into our Shop with a Cop bank account, supporting our community outreach and shopping experiences for the kids. We're grateful for your support. As always look out for and take care of each other.
