ACCORDING TO SHERIFF TIM CATRON SCAMMERS ARE USING THE WAYNE COUNTY SHERIFF OFFICE’S NAME IN ANOTHER SCAM.
TODAY, JANUARY 30, 2026, A LOCAL RESIDENT RECEIVED A CALL ON THEIR CELL PHONE STATING THE CALLER WAS WITH THE WAYNE COUNTY SHERIFF OFFICE AND HAD IN POSSESSION A UNITED STATES FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT ARREST WARRANT FOR THEM. THE CALLER STATED IF THE LOCAL RESIDENT PAID A $9,800.00 BOND FEE TO THE CALLER THE ARREST WARRANT WOULD BE TAKING CARE OF AND THEY WOULD NOT BE ARRESTED.
THE WAYNE COUNTY SHERIFF OFFICE DOES NOT TAKE MONEY
FOR ANY ARREST PERIOD. THIS IS A TOTAL SCAM EVEN THOUGH
THE PAPERWORK THEY WILL TEXT YOU HAS THE APPERANCE OF BEING REALISTIC.
