The Mecosta County Sheriff's Office is advising of a scam the has been going on for the past two days.

The Sheriff’s Office has received several calls from residents around the state of Michigan that have been contacted by phone by what sounds like a Deputy from our office advising them that they have missed court and need to pay a fine. 

This is a scam and the Sheriff’s Office does not call notifying anyone about court dates, fine, or warrants. If you receive one of these calls advise the caller that you know it’s a scam and hang up. If they call back, block their number.
