West Point PD issues scam alert
WEST POINT, Miss. (WCBI) – West Point police are warning business owners and residents about a scammer.
A person claiming to be Lt. Arnold from the police department has called a number of businesses.
He demands payment from the caller for a number of reasons. He may say they have to pay before a warrant is issued for their arrest.
The scammer even told one caller the police department was putting out a calendar and wanted a payment.
The numbers appear to be spoofed from local telephone numbers.
Law enforcement will never demand money from you over the phone.
Simply hang up and never give your personal information.
