Jury Duty Scam – Be Aware!
From the Brazoria County’s website (http://www.brazoria-county.com/):
Brazoria County District Clerk Rhonda Barchak has indicated scammers are calling jurors and introducing themselves as Constable Buck Stevens and/or other law enforcement officers and trying to charge $1000 for fake fines with a number to call back of 281-622-1964.
Mrs. Barchak advises that anyone who has missed jury duty will never be notified by phone. They will receive a letter from the District Clerk’s Office on official letterhead with a failure to appear notice signed. If you receive a call about missing jury duty, please call the Brazoria County District Clerk’s Office phone number at 979-864-1836 and the Brazoria County District Attorney’s Office at 979-864-1230.
