NCSO notifies the public of a scam

10/24/2024

Today, the NCSO began getting calls from people who state they are receiving calls from a person identifying himself as Lieutenant Kevin Scott at NCSO. The caller then asks for money to prevent an arrest, arrest warrant, and in one case alleged the payment was because they had not shown up for court. There was also a reference to paying with bitcoin at a local business in Corsicana. The NCSO does not call to solicit money or payment in lieu of arrest. Don't become a victim. This is just another example of the type of scams that are being perpetrated against our citizens daily. Please do not become victim of these frivolous scams. Contact the NCSO or your local law enforcement agency to report any suspicious activity.
