Scammers Pose as Calhoun County Sheriff’s Deputies
Deputy Art Draper tells WBCK that the man was called on Monday, February 15
th. He later told deputies that the first man who called had an Indian accent and claimed to be with the department. He said they told him they had an outstanding warrant concerning an accident that happened in San Antonio, Texas. The caller provided a fake badge number and fake warrant information. The suspect asked the citizen for his bank name and the last four numbers of his account number. The caller then told the man not to talk to anyone about the call. A few minutes later, a second man called the victim, also with an Indian accent. He mentioned the name of Sheriff Steve Hinkley and gave the same story about an outstanding warrant. Deputy Draper thinks the second caller may have been trying to verify or correct some information obtained during the first call.
