HAMPSHIRE, Mass. (WGGB/WSHM) – The Hampshire County Sheriff’s Department is warning residents about fake phone calls from local officials.
Some residents have been receiving calls from someone pretending to be an employee of the sheriff’s office.
The call does not show up on caller I.D. and residents who answer are told that they missed a court appearance and must turn themselves in to be booked and fingerprinted.
If you receive a call like this, you’re being asked to hang up and contact your local police department.
