Police warn of warrant scams

S

The Tullahoma Police Department put out a notice this past week regarding a phone scam impersonating warrants.

“The Tullahoma Police Department has received numerous calls this morning concerning a scam that has been attempted,” officials said in a statement. “The caller is calling from a local number and making statements that the recipient has outstanding warrants and asking that the recipient meet them with a large sum of cash to address the perceived situation.”

The police department reminded residents that neither the Tullahoma Police Department nor any other law enforcement agency will call them to ask for money in any situation.

“Please be aware that this is a scam and do not respond,” the statement read.

If anyone has any questions or feel the need to verify are asked to contact the Tullahoma Police Department at 931-455-0530.
