SCAM ALERT From the Dexter Police Department
September 02nd 2017 by Dee Loflin
SCAM ALERT From the Dexter Police Department

Dexter, Missouri - From the Dexter Police Department - SCAM ALERT!!

ATTENTION AREA BUSINESSES:

This morning, a local, franchised business received a telephone call from a male subject who identified himself as a CEO of the corporation.The male caller stated that he had received information from "the bank" that this local store had taken and deposited $2500 in counterfeit bills. The "CEO" then advised management that an "emergency deposit" of $2500 needed to be made on a prepaid credit card and that an associate would be by to pick it up. The "CEO" stated that if management didn't comply, the US Marshals would show up to investigate and / or make arrests.

Needless to say, the business did NOT comply.

A few things to keep in mind:

1. Our local banks are very diligent in watching for and detecting counterfeit money. They call us if they believe they have fake currency; usually before calling the business who made the deposit.

2. The US Marshal Service is not the Federal agency that investigates counterfeit money.

3. When law enforcement agencies are ready to visit you in reference to an investigation, you know it when they arrive; they usually don't give you much advance notice. In other words, don't let a scammer threaten you with us (law enforcement) into doing something.

If you have a doubt as to the validity of a call from person(s) identifying themselves as law enforcement, please call us anytime at (573) 624-5512.
