These calls, which may begin with a siren sound, are fraudulent and should be ignored, warned the OSP and the Oregon Department of Jus tice. On March 26 OSP got a report of the scam when a citizen reported getting a phone call from a restricted number. Following a siren sound, an automated voice identified himself as “Alex James Murphy with the Oregon State Police.” The caller stated a “bench war rant” had been issued on an unpaid speeding ticket issued on Interstate 205. The pre-recorded call gave further instructions to pur chase a Green Dot Money- Pak reloadable debit card and place $ 154 on the card, then call back to another phone number in the (203) area code and provide the Green Dot card number and security code to pay the citation and avoid further legal action. In N ovem ber 2012, OSP received complaints from citizens regarding similar telephone calls from individuals claiming to be OSP troopers demanding money in exchange for dropping criminal charges or clearing arrest warrants. Two similar cases involved callers using titles of “Of ficer” and “Deputy”. OSP reminds you to be aware that: OSP or any other legitimate law en forcem ent agency does not call citizens seeking payment for outstanding traffic citations. OSP does not call individuals and de mand money from citizens under any circumstances. Individuals claiming to col lect debts may try to instill M e m b er F D IC II S $ ' it ’s new laughs, new hopes, new happiness.
