MCSO has received MORE than 500 reports of scams, just this year alone. Scammers are posing as MCSO Deputies, Lieutenants, and Sergeants, masking their phone number and caller ID as the “Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office.

IF YOU RECIEVE A CALL FROM SOMEONE CLAIMING TO BE AFFLIATED WITH MCSO, AND THEY DEMAND ANY MONEY OR PAYMENT, HANG UP. THIS IS A SCAM!

This includes asking for payment of a Warrant due to Missing an Federal Court/Grand Jury Hearing, an Ankle Monitoring Program, Dating Website Extortion, or Mental Health/Addiction Program.

MCSO will Never Call & Solicit Money from the Public. MCSO will never send you an email, in general. Please Stay Aware & Don’t Become a Victim!
