Scam Alert In Bates County

Bates County Sheriff's Deputies have taken a report of a scam in the area where the subject claims to be from the Sheriffs Office. The caller is telling people that they have warrants and need to go to Walmart and get money cards to pay the bond.

It is not common practice for law enforcement to call people and take bond over the phone. The Bates County Sheriffs Office absolutely will not call you and ask you to get a money card over the phone.

If you ever question a caller then look up the agency in question and call them directly. Do not use a number that the caller provides
