INCIDENT DATE AND TIME: March 3, 2021
REPORTING DEPUTY: Undersheriff Travis Snyder
DETAILS:
On March 3, 2021, the Sheriff’s Office civil division was contacted by a citizen regarding a potential scam. The citizen, who is a current Concealed Handgun License applicant, received a phone message advising them to call a 1-877 phone number if they want to continue their CHL application. Such phone calls are not coming from the Josephine County Sheriff’s Office. If you receive a message from the Sheriff’s Office, you will be asked to contact a local phone number only and not a 1-877 phone number.
