🚨🚨JURY DUTY SCAM ALERT🚨🚨

Jury duty scam calls are a common extortion tactic where fraudsters impersonate law enforcement or court officials, claiming you missed a jury summons and have a warrant for your arrest. They demand immediate payment of a "fine" to avoid jail time. Courts and government agencies will never call to demand money or threaten arrest over the phone.

We have had over 8 reports of this scam today. Please do not give any information or money over the phone! Questions please contact our front office at 541-447-6398 #6.
