The Caroline County Sheriff’s Office issued a warning to residents Tuesday morning, Feb. 3, 2026, about a phone scam in which callers claim to be members of law enforcement. The Caroline Review reports the Facebook alert was posted by the office at about 8:15 a.m. The scam involves a caller claiming the resident has a federal warrant and threatens arrest if you don’t act immediately. Further, the caller tells the resident to drive to a store and wire money (often around $1,000) to “speed up the bail process.” If you receive a call like this, hang up. Don’t send money and report the scam to the Federal Trade Commission at reportfraud.ftc.gov.
