The Johnson County Sheriff's Office wants to remind everyone of a few scams that keep going around:A legitimate Law Enforcement Agency or Court (Sheriff’s Office, Police Department, etc…) will NEVER ask for or accept a bond on a warrant without the subject of the warrant being arrested and booked into a County Jail. Bonds are paid in cash and in-person physically at a Sheriff’s Office. A legitimate Agency will NEVER send a courier or meet at your house to pick up cash! Also any phone apps, gift cards, or specific money card system, Bitcoin or crypto currency are NEVER asked for or accepted. If someone is calling, messaging or emailing you with a threat or heartfelt story of illness, car crashes or unfilled warrants, or that they are representing a family member who has been arrested in parts unknown, check with that family member directly! The scammers will try and keep you on the phone while you purchase gift cards or withdraw money from a bank. They will tell you not to let the bank know why you are withdrawing money because they know the tellers are trained to recognize the scam and try to prevent you from giving away your money!Please talk with your friends and relatives specifically about answering the phone from an unknown number. Scammers know that older generations are more likely to answer the phone when someone calls, even if it’s a number not known to them. Once the scammer has someone’s attention, the sales pitch/intimidation scheme is started and groundwork for intimidation and manipulation begins.

The Sheriff's Office has been made aware of a mailing going out to local residents from the "U.S. Deputy Sheriff's Association" soliciting money that is supposedly going to local law enforcement. We would discourage residents from giving to this organization to support local agencies as there are no agencies in this area that receive any proceeds from them.This organization is a registered 501(c)(3) in Kansas; however they have very poor charity reviews due to collecting millions and distributing very little - none of which is going to any agencies we're aware of in Central Indiana.The only law enforcement charities the Sheriff's Office specifically endorses are the Fraternal Order of Police and the Indiana Sheriff's Association. ...
