If you are being asked to drop a bag of cash in a gas station bathroom to clear up a warrant, there’s a good chance you are talking to a scammer.
Janesville police are apparently seeing an uptick in criminals posing as police officers and targeting residents over the telephone.
Sgt. Benjamin Thompson says unfortunately, there is constantly some type of scam making the rounds.
Janesville police say if you receive a suspicious call, don’t share any financial information, hang up immediately and report the call to the Rock County 911 Communications Center.
