The Brown County Sheriff’s Office posted the following information on social media Tuesday afternoon:
Sheriff Vance Hill would like to advise the community of a recent scam. Callers are stating that they are either Sgt. Hill or Sheriff Hill with the Brown County Sheriff’s office and they are asking that you activate a google task bar on your PC in regard to a court case. The callers are also stating that there is a warrant for their arrest due to missing court. They are also leaving voice mails saying that they are Sheriff Hill, and that the individual needs to call them back regarding a confidential legal matter.
Sheriff Hill wants the community to know that no one from the Sheriff’s Office will ever call and request any validation of any internet link or ask for any type of funds in any manner.
