Scammers are once again using the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office to try to convince residents to send them money for fictitious warrants.  A Sheriff’s Office employee received a message earlier this week from a scammer claiming to be “Lieutenant Kevin Price with the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office” who was contacting the employee due to “a missed court hearing for civil duty.” Scammers have also been using the name Lieutenant Mike Bassi in a number of calls recently reported to the Sheriff’s Office.  Best response, hang up.
