The Sheriff's Office has received intelligence of another scam. In these new cases the suspects are using the Sheriff's Office Dispatch number of 719-390-5555. This can be done by using an application called "Spoof Card". This application allows the suspect to use any legitimate phone number to call from with intent of victimizing people for large amounts of money. In these recent instances, the suspect spoke with a heavy Indian accent.
Again, the Sheriff's Office would like to remind citizens that our Office NEVER calls and informs individuals they have an active warrant and NEVER asks individuals to make payments to clear up a warrant. We will also NEVER call to ask for money, for any reason.
If you have information about or fallen victim to this scam, please contact Detective Amanda Kelsey at [email protected].
