The Weakley County Sheriff’s Department is warning residents against a phone scam.
Captain Randall McGowan says the Sheriff’s Department has received numerous calls about people receiving a call from someone claiming to be Detective Michael Maloan or working for the office of Michael Maloan and attempting to collect money for a sex registry violation.
McGowan says the Weakley County Sheriff’s Department wants the public to know that the calls are an attempt to scam people out of money and that if you receive a call like this, do not give them any information and do not send them any money.
