๐จโ ๏ธ SCAM ALERT โ PLEASE READ & SHARE โ ๏ธ๐จ
The Granbury Police Department has been made aware of a spam phone call circulating in our area.
๐ Individuals are receiving calls from someone claiming to be with the โGranbury Sheriffโs Officeโ, stating that you missed jury duty and that there is a warrant issued for your arrest.
๐ซ This is NOT legitimate.
Hereโs what you need to know:
๐น There is NO agency called the โGranbury Sheriffโs Office.โ
๐น The Granbury Police Department and the Hood County Sheriffโs Office are separate agencies.
๐น Law enforcement will NOT call you demanding payment or threatening arrest over the phone for missing jury duty.
โ ๏ธ At this time, it is unclear what the scammers are attempting to gain, but these types of calls often aim to:
๐ฐ Scare individuals into sending money
๐ฒ Obtain personal or financial information
๐ If you receive one of these calls:
โ๏ธ Do NOT provide any personal information
โ๏ธ Do NOT send money or payment of any kind
โ๏ธ Hang up immediately
โ๏ธ Report the call to your local law enforcement agency
