NORWALK, Conn. (WTIC Radio) - Norwalk Police are warning the public of an individual who is impersonating a Norwalk Police Officer in a phone scam.
The caller falsely claims that the recipient has missed a court appearance and must pay a fine immediately.
In at least one instance, the impersonator used the name “Jason Wilson”.
This individual is not a Norwalk Police Officer, according to an official statement from the department.
The statement goes on to say, further, that the Norwalk Police Department will never call or solicit money for missed court appearances or any legal matter.
If you become the victim of this scam, the department urges you to contact their dispatch at (203) 854-3113.
