SCAM ALERT: Scam Callers Claiming To Be Rockland County Sheriff’s Office

by Monsey.info

Scammers are at it again.

The Rockland County Sherriff’s Office is warning residents that several people have contacted the Sheriff’s Office reporting that they had received suspicious phone calls from phone number 845-801-0573, stating that they were a Sargent from the Rockland County Sheriff’s Office.

THIS CALL IS A SCAM and the phone number is not connected to the Sheriff’s Office. Callers are told they were wanted for skipping Jury duty and that there would be a warrant put out for their arrest if they didn’t make payments via Zelle or Venmo.

The Sheriff’s Office does not ask for payments in connection with warrants and members of the public should never provide personal information without verifying the identity of the caller.
