If Democrats Campaign on Stopping Scam Calls, They’ll Be Re-Elected Forever
It just happened again. One of my colleagues got a call this afternoon from the “local sheriff’s department” informing her that because she’d missed jury duty, there was now a warrant out for her arrest. She had, in fact, missed jury duty earlier this year, and they knew the details of the letter she’d received, as well as her former and current address. The phone number of the incoming call matched that of the local police station. Once they told her she needed to send “bail money” via Zelle, she realized it was a scam and hung up, but not before they’d wasted 30 minutes of her time and successfully made her panic.
