Phone scam alert: Impersonating law enforcement to collect payment

December 29, 2020 |   |  Community Awareness

The Nolan County Sheriff’s Office has received reports of a telephone scam involving a caller claiming to be a Deputy Sheriff with this office. It was reported that the impersonator, who has identified himself as Lieutenant Yarbrough or Kevin Huston, informs victims that they have multiple warrants for their arrest and certified letters have been sent to them requesting a secondary DNA specimen. The impersonator then asks the victim for a cash payoff in the form of gift cards to avoid arrest. The phone number displayed on caller ID is reported to be (325) 439-7911.

In one of these cases, the impersonator had the victim go to the local CEFCO convenience store and purchase six, $500.00 gift cards. While still on the phone with the impersonator, the victim was instructed to open the gift card and give the impersonator the gift card number, the expiration date and the security code on the back of the gift card and once this information was given, the call would disconnect.

Nolan County Sheriff David Warren urges citizens to always be vigilant when receiving phone calls from people asking for money or personal details. The Nolan County Sheriff’s Office or any other legitimate government department or financial institution, will never call you and ask for your personal banking information or payments in gift cards, cryptocurrency or money transfers. It is important to take independent steps to verify a caller’s identity before providing any personal information or payments of any sort, irrespective of the phone number displayed, or who a caller claims to work for.

The Nolan County Sheriff’s Office will never:

  • Contact you to ask for your Personal Identification Number (PIN) or bank details
  • Ask you to transfer money out of your account
  • Ask you to withdraw cash to hand over to them for safe-keeping
  • Send someone to your home to collect cash, cards or your PIN

We urge you to contact our office if you receive such a call and definitely don’t give the caller any personal information or payments.

On Friday, July 24, 2020, a Nolan County Deputy Sheriff was following a lead as to the whereabouts of Daniel Ray Jones, a fugitive from justice. Jones, who had been avoiding detection by law enforcement for several weeks, was located in a parked vehicle at the car wash on Hailey Street. When the deputy approached the vehicle to speak with Jones, he jumped from the vehicle and fled the area on foot across Hailey Street, where he attempted to elude the pursuing deputy.

Deputies set up a perimeter, surrounding Jones, and quickly located him in an alley between 13th and 14th Street in the 1000 block.
