YCSO REMINDS COMMUNITY OF SCAM CALLS: WE WILL NOT CALL YOU FOR PAYMENT OF WARRANTS

The Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office is reminding the community to be aware of scam calls that may be received. A citizen recently reported that she received a phone call from “Sergeant Michael Lewis with YCSO” including a fabricated badge number, regarding a warrant and seeking money. Fortunately, after asking a few questions, the citizen determined that this was a fictitious caller.

YCSO wants to remind everyone that we will never call regarding warrants or seeking funds to take care of warrants.

YCSO is committed to keeping the community safe and informed about potential scams. You can always call the YCSO non-emergency line to verify Deputy names and Badge numbers at (928)771-3260.

If you receive any suspicious calls, please contact your local law enforcement agency immediately.
