“SCAM ALERT:

We just heard from a gentleman who was the victim of a scam involving scammers who say they’re from the Bristol County Sheriff’s Office.

In this case, the scammer said he was Officer Mark Williams from the BCSO, and he demanded the victim to buy gift cards from area merchants and transfer them over the phone. The scammer even had fellow scammers in the background supposedly speaking to Sheriff Hodgson.

So please share and please be careful.

The BCSO will NEVER NEVER NEVER call and demand payment. Be careful everyone.”
