Warning from Anacortes Police

The fraudster claims to be calling about the call recipient’s arrest warrants, then attempts to glean personal information. 

There are several red flags here: 1. There is not a “Sergeant Cook” working for the Anacortes Police Department. 2. APD will not call you if you have a warrant. We will contact you in person. 3. Very rarely will a legitimate organization of any kind contact you via telephone to obtain personal identifying information.
