There's Telephone Scammers Out There! Beware Of Them! (PSA)

An Apex North Carolina police captain turned the tables on a phone scammer who threatened her with arrest over bogus charges. Captain Ann Stephens with the Apex Police Department in North Carolina took a call from a man who identified himself as "Officer John Black" and said he was calling with "serious allegations under your name." Captain Ann Stephens filmed the moment a scam caller claimed that Captain Stevens from Apex Police Department was charged with laundering $10 million and would be arrested for drug trafficking also. Meanwhile, she put him on speaker while one of her colleagues recorded a video. When asked for her address by the phone scammers, she gave the street address for the Apex North Carolina Police Department. During the conversation she refuses to give the caller her bank details and, the phone scammer says someone is coming to arrest her. The phone scammer gets confused after Captain Stevens refuses to give any personal information to him, even if she faces jail, and hangs up the phone.

Captain Ann Stephens of the Apex Police Department in North Carolina gives us a great example of what these phone scammers will say to fool those that they call. A very good warning when someone receives a garbage, robocall, scam phone call. Do your part to end scam calls “Hang Up” when you receiving scam call!
