Sheriff Tony Mancuso is warning area residents of a scam that has once again surfaced in our area.
Victims report receiving a phone call stating a warrant has been issued for their arrest due to failure to report for a jury summons. The caller, who uses the name of a current or former Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office deputy, advises the victim they need to pay the fee or someone from CPSO will be at their home to arrest them.
