Increase in Fraud

Posted May 13, 2020 at 4:05 pm by

The San Juan County Sheriff’s Office is seeing a rise in both online and mail fraud in recent months. With millions of Americans filing for unemployment, tax season extended and upon us, and stimulus checks coming in the mail those who prey upon unsuspecting citizens are taking advantage. We are currently seeing a rise in fraudulent unemployment claims.

If you have a question about anything that has to do with what you may suspect as being fraudulent or just not on the up and up, feel free to call the Sheriff’s Office to help determine if you are dealing with a legitimate source.

If you feel you are a victim of fraud, please call the business line at 360-378-4151

Thank you,

Ron Krebs
Sheriff
