Scam Alerts

The Grayson County Sheriff’s Office would like to inform our citizens about the latest scams going on in our county.  Recently, Scammers, a.k.a. Thieves, Scumbags, or Thugs, have been contacting our citizens via phone, posing as a utilities company threatening to disconnect their electric or water due to an unpaid balance or fee.  The thief will then tell the customer that they can avoid being cut off if they pay a certain amount to avoid being disconnected.  They will ask that you bring the money to another location (which you should NEVER do) or go to another location and give them the number off of a prepaid credit card or “money card” for the amount they request.  The GCSO would like to remind our citizens that legitimate utilities companies will never request that you pay your bill or fee in that way.  If you are approached or phoned by someone posing as a utility company you are asked to hang up and call your utilities provider to confirm the phone call and give details as to what the caller was asking.  Many of these scams are made from overseas, making it difficult, if not possible for local police agencies to prosecute.  We would also ask that you periodically check with your elderly neighbors and/or family members to ensure that they are not receiving similar calls as they are often the victims in these scams.  If you feel that you have been a victim of a scam similar to this one, you are asked to contact your local police agency.”
