The Hancock County Sheriff’s Office said tis the season for scammers, and they are going strong.  

The office stated that there are two scams that they are currently receiving calls about.  

One is the “you missed court and if you don’t pay you will get arrested” and the other is the “I am your grandchild, I just got arrested and need bail money.”  

You should not send money to anyone unless you are certain it is legitimate.

Law enforcement and the courts do not contact and threaten to arrest by call, email, or text.
