The office of Indiana County Sheriff Robert E. Fyock is again the target of a scam. The sheriff’s office said Friday it is “getting multiple reports from individuals stating they were contacted by someone posing as Sgt.
McCully from our office. They use a number of excuses for the call, such as: they have a warrant, they missed a hearing and owe money or that we have a civil paper for them they then are instructing the individuals to send money.” The instruction to “send money” should be the tip-off that the call is a scam, the sheriff’s office said, adding, “remember that legitimate organizations do not contact individuals and request that they give money via gift cards, bitcoin purchases, or third-party websites.
