The Corpus Christi Police Department has been made aware of a phone scam involving The Nueces County Sheriff’s Office.

The caller claims to be a deputy with the sheriff’s office and states that they have an arrest warrant and demands payment. THIS IS A SCAM!

The Corpus Christi Police Department and the Nueces County Sheriff’s Office will never call to inform you of a warrant and demand payment. If someone calls claiming this, do not give them any information and hang up immediately.
