The Greenville County Sheriff’s Office is making the public aware that an age old scam has been resurfacing involving callers contacting people in the community and representing themselves as deputies.

The scammers are telling people that they have missed jury duty and must “pay a fine” to avoid an arrest warrant being issued against them, according to the Sheriff’s office.

The Sheriff’s office reminds the public it will never solicit money over the phone for any reason.

If you receive a phone call suggesting otherwise, hang up and report them to the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office at 864-467-5300.
