PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST JURY SERVICE SCAMS
The Denver Sherriff Department is urging the community to be vigilant regarding a telephone impersonation scam. The impersonator poses as a Denver Deputy Sheriff demanding payment of alleged warrants for not responding to a jury summons.
A Denver Deputy Sheriff will never request payment for a warrant, nor make contact by phone.
If you receive a suspicious call from someone alleging to be a Denver Deputy Sheriff, please report the information to your local police department and use the following link to notify the Colorado State Attorney General’s Office: https://www.stopfraudcolorado.gov/.
