My oh my, the scammers sure do stay busy, don't they?


It doesn't seem to matter if it's a lazy Sunday when you're not expecting any phone calls, or if the world is in total chaos, scammers are hard at work. Have you received a call like this lately?

"Hello, Mr. Bazwald, this is Commander Guerrero with the  Kennewick Police Department. We have a warrant for your arrest, however, we're running a special right now and for the low, low price of only $149.99, we can shelve that bad boy and you can just go about your day! And for just $30 more, we can also delete warrants for your wife, your daughter, your son, and your crazy uncle. But wait! There's more! Did you know that unlicensed pets inside city limits can cost you hundreds, even thousands of dollars? Order your Discount Warrant Package now and pets walk FREE!"

Well, I'm pretty sure that's not how the spiel goes, but Kennewick Police want you to know that they are not calling anyone about warrants. I'll bet the scammers get your full damn attention if you have one though!
