Weakley Co. Sheriff’s Office Warns Of Scam

wkley-co-so-3

Dresden, Tenn.–Weakley County residents have been receiving phone calls from someone claiming to be a Sgt. Merrell with the Weakley County Sheriff’s Office.

Captain Randall McGowan said the caller wants people to believe there is a warrant for their arrest or there is a problem with some sort of back taxes they owe. They give a call back number when they call.

McGowan said there is a Sgt. Merrell who works for the sheriff’s office, but the voice on the call is not his. “This is an obvious scam. Unless the number given to call back is 731 364 5454, do not call them back. Do not send any money to anyone you do not know.”
