The Butler County Sheriff is warning of a scam circulating that is targeting physicians.
Sheriff Mike Slupe says the claim is that the physician did not show up to provide expert testimony and a contempt of court warrant has been issued.
The scammer then instructs the physician they need to get a signature verification and post bond. The sheriff says the scammer targeted a couple of local physicians using a “724” number.
Sheriff Slupe says that if “something doesn’t pass the smell test, it is probably a scam.”
