SCAM ALERT: Fake “Missed Jury Duty Calls
SCAM ALERT: Fake “Missed” Jury Duty Calls!
If you receive a call stating that you missed jury duty and now have a warrant, hang up. It’s a scam.
Scammers are pretending to be deputies or court officials, demanding money to “clear a warrant” or “avoid arrest.” They may even spoof real phone numbers to sound convincing. Some have suggested meeting them at the Sheriff’s Office, hoping that the mere suggestion alone will be enough to convince you to hand over your money. DON’T DO IT!
Here’s the truth:
The Williamson County Sheriff’s Office will never call and ask for payment.
You won’t be asked to pay with gift cards, Bitcoin, Venmo, or wire transfers.
If you really miss jury duty, you’ll get something in writing, not a threatening phone call.
Don’t fall for it. Spread the word. Warn your family. And if you get one of these calls, report it.
