Missed Court? Better check with the department directly and not by a call from someone claiming to be from one

I can’t believe I saw this on KNX. Just looking around this morning, I saw something that I normally don’t see from them, and this is a good one.

Sheriff’s officials warn of `missed court appearance’ scam is the article title, and I’m not sure if this has been covered elsewhere.

I know the tech press itself has been talking about scams like this one lately, especially on Kim Komando’s web site but this specific one may be specific to San Diego.

Just remember to keep your guard up, and know how these things work.
