The Miller County Sheriff’s Office is warning residents about a phone scam where callers claim to be from the Sheriff’s Office. The caller states the person has an outstanding warrant or fines that need to be paid, and may mention a legal matter involving the person. They are using the names of Chief Deputy Dale Hawthorn and Leon Parker.
This is a scam. The Sheriff’s Office does not call individuals about fines or warrants. Do not provide any financial information. If you believe you have a warrant, contact the Miller County Sheriff’s Office directly.
