🚨 SCAM ALERT – PLEASE SHARE 🚨
The Crawford County Sheriff’s Office is warning the public about a fraudulent “Final Notice – Court Enforcement Action” letter that is currently circulating.
These notices claim to be from the State of Missouri and threaten legal action over alleged unpaid traffic violations, tolls, or fines. They often include urgent language, court dates, and QR codes for payment.
⚠️ THIS IS A SCAM.
Missouri courts DO NOT:
• Send threatening notices like this demanding immediate payment
• Require payment through QR codes or unofficial links
• Threaten license suspension or arrest without proper legal service
✅ What to do if you receive one:
• DO NOT scan the QR code
• DO NOT send money or provide personal information
• Verify any court matter directly with your local court or clerk’s office
These scams are designed to create panic and pressure you into paying quickly. Take a moment, verify, and protect yourself.
