The Nevada Department of Public Safety (DPS), Sex Offender Registry has received reports of a potential scam in an effort to collect money from registered sex offenders. Calls are being made to offenders informing them they are non-compliant with their registration requirements, that a warrant has been issued for their arrest and that the offender must pay a fine in order to be compliant. Sex Offenders are required by law to register in Nevada and failure to comply is a felony offense; however, the Nevada DPS and local Law Enforcement do not collect money from sex offenders for registration or for warrants issued.
