GCSO warns of scam

Glenn County Observer

Don’t fall for it, readers!

A scammer is calling local phone numbers, claiming they are Lt. Corbin from the Glenn County Sheriff’s Office and threatening people with arrest warrants if some sort of payment is not sent to them.

The GCSO’s press release did not specify what form this payment is supposed to take. A gift card, as some scammers prefer? A money order? What?

Regardless, this is a scam! GCSO staff will not call and threaten people with arrest if they don’t pay.

If you receive a call and you are uncertain if it is a scam, hang up and call the direct line to the agency in question to verify if it is legitimate.

To reach the Glenn County Sheriff’s Office, call 530-934-6431.
