FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) - The Allen County Sheriff's Department is warning Fort Wayne area residents about a phone scam.
Police said the scam involves calling homes and telling the residents that they owe a debt. The victims are then told that if they do not send money, a warrant will be issued for their arrest. The victims are also told that the sheriff will have an officer come to their home and arrest them.
Police said if you receive a solicitation for money based on this scenario, you should not send any money.
