Residents in Jefferson County, Colorado are being warned to be wary of the latest phone scam.
A man calling himself "Major Tom Wilson" of the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office is calling people and saying that a warrant is out for their arrest because they missed jury duty.
According to the man, they can avoid jail time if they buy a five hundred dollar Green Dot MoneyPak card and then give him the security code numbers.
Several people have been called by the scammer, with at least one person falling for it.
Anyone who has had a similar experience, and has not reported it, is asked to call the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office at 303-271-0211.
