U.S. District Courts DO NOT ask people to pay bond payments at a BitCoin kiosk.
A scammer sent this document and called a resident’s cell phone sounding very convincing in trying to trick the resident into paying a bond.
But the resident had the good sense to hang up instead of losing his money to a scammer.
The resident forwarded the fake document to the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office.
Reading the document shows it was altered.
Please do not allow scammers who call you to trick you out of your money, especially by paying cash into a BitCoin kiosk.
Don’t let the scammer scare you.
If you receive a threatening call like this, simply hang up and save your money.
