From the Johnson County Sheriff's Office
We've been informed of an attempted jury duty scam. Here’s what happened:
This morning, someone reported receiving 11 calls, 9 voicemails, and a text from an impersonator claiming to be a “Johnson County deputy.” The scammer falsely stated that a warrant was issued for their arrest due to a missed jury duty on 12-23-24. They demanded a $35,000 bond, payable by depositing money into a kiosk, and threatened arrest for stepping onto government property. They also instructed the individual not to tell anyone.
If you receive a call like this:
- Do NOT pay any money.
- Report it immediately to authorities.
Let’s keep our community safe by spreading the word.
