Fire alarm was reported in the 10800 block of Mapleton Guard against scam calls Recently, the Oregon State Police has taken reports from people who have been scammed out of money by people posing as law enforce- ment officers on the telephone. Scammers have called and claimed to be members of a police department or sheriff’s department and that the victim missed jury duty, had out- standing fines or a warrant for their arrest that could be taken care of over the phone with a payment. Callers may instruct the vic- tims to purchase re-loadable cards and call them back with the numbers. Similar scams have been reported in the past year where callers claim to be with a utility or other govern- ment agency. The Oregon State Police reminds citizens to be aware that: • The Oregon State Police or any other legitimate law enforcement agency does not call community members seeking payment for outstand- ing traffic citations or war- rants. • The Oregon State Police does not call individuals and demand money from commu- nity members under any cir- cumstances. • Individuals claiming to collect debts may try to instill fear in potential victims to per- suade them to forward money. Tips to help avoid becoming a victim to this scam include: • Never give personal or IMPOUNDMENT financial information to an unsolicited caller or email. • Be suspicious of callers who demand immediate pay- ment for any reason. • Utility companies and government agencies will never contact you for payment by GreenDot, MoneyPak or Vanilla Reload. • Remember that anyone who has the number on a pre- paid card has access to the funds on your card. • Never wire money, pro- vide debit or credit card num- bers to a stranger. The Oregon Judicial Department (OJD) advises that courts may use an independent collection service to collect unpaid monetary judgments and fines. If someone believes they are being scammed regarding an alleged unpaid traffic citation or other court-imposed finan- cial obligation they can: • Ask the collector (caller) for information specific to the alleged warrant or unpaid traf- fic citation. The caller should have the court case number, date of ticket and vehicle license num- ber. • Verify the debt or confirm other details by calling the OJD collections hot-line at 1- 888-564-2828. Road.
