HOLLIS — Several residents have reported receiving phone calls from someone claiming to be a representative of the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, according to the Hollis Police Department.
The caller informs residents that they have missed jury duty and must send a money order to avoid being arrested.
Police said this is not a legitimate request and that the sheriff’s office does not conduct business in this manner.
Authorities are urging residents not to engage with the caller and to avoid sending any money.
