The Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office is warning citizens of a “jury scam.” Someone calls and identifyies himself as a deputy or prosecuting attorney and then tells people that they were in contempt of court and will have to pay a fine to avoid going to jail. KCSO says that the scammer is using the actual names of sheriff’s office deputies and prosecuting attorneys. The sheriff’s office says they will never call anyone asking them to pay money over the phone, and neither will the Kanawha County Office of the Prosecuting Attorney. Anyone who has any doubts about a similar call they might have received should call Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office at 304-357-0200.
