IMPERSONATING OFFICER PHONE SCAM Telephone scams are some of the most popular fraud schemes. A call will say there is a warrant for a person's arrest and they need to deposit money into an account and is given an account number. Or they say they are an officer, sheriff or from border patrol. Hang up! No warrant service will or law enforcement officer will ask you for money. | Portland Police Bureau
