Scammers impersonating Saline County Circuit Clerk staff

The scammers are leaving residents a voicemail claiming to be "Barbara" with the Criminal Division of the Saline County Circuit Clerk's Office. The scammer will then inform the resident they are to be arrested and charged with something if they do not pay $3,600 in fines and charges that they owe.

"The Saline County Circuit Clerk's Office would never call residents informing them they are going to be arrested or charged. Nor would we ever ask for residents to pay a large sum of money, such as $3,600 over the phone. Additionally we do not have anyone by the name of "Barbara" that works in our office,” said Saline County Circuit Clerk Myka Bono Sample.

If you receive a scam phone call, please report the incident to the Arkansas Attorney General's Office-Consumer Protection Division at 800-482-8982.
