Claiming you’ve missed jury duty or have a warrant for your arrest.

Another old phone scam is making the rounds… scammers are pretending to be law enforcement, claiming you’ve missed jury duty or have a warrant for your arrest. The Mason County Sheriff’s Office says they’ve received reports of these citizens receiving these types of calls.
