The Adair County Sheriff's Office has received notification that scammers called an individual claiming to be with Adair County Probation and Parole. The scammer went on to tell the individual that they were an emergency contact for a family member who was incarcerated. They knew the person's name & age, as well as the person's family members and phone numbers. They proceeded to ask for $750.00 for an ankle monitor.
Adair County Sheriff Gary Roy says if you receive any calls of this nature, hang up immediately and do not give out any personal information or send any money to anyone, anywhere.
Feel free to contact the Adair Co. Sheriff's Office if you have any questions or concerns, 270-384-2776.
