New scam in your area: Caller pretending to be police.
The Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office would like to make you aware of a new scam taking place in our area.
The Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office has been made aware of two seperate instances where a caller pretends to be a "Lieutenant Henderson" with the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office. The scammer then tells the unsuspecting victim that they owe a fine for an unresolved police issue (missing jury duty, ignoring a summons, etc..).
This is a scam and the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office will never call you demanding money.
- If you receive a call such as this, hang up
- Please record the phone number and contact us at our non-emergency dispatch (734-994-2911)
- "Lieutenant Henderson" does not work for the WCSO
