The Raleigh County Sheriff's Office is investigating complaints of a phone scam regarding jury duty, according to a news release from the office.
The perpetrators are contacting victims and telling them they've missed jury duty, then requesting payment via money cards to pay a "fine," the release said.
The Raleigh County Sheriff's Office does not contact residents regarding jury duty and would not require payment for anything over the phone, according to the release.
Residents with questions or concerns regarding jury duty can contact the County Circuit Clerk's Office at 304-255-9119.
