01/18/2024

It has come to our attention that one of our deputies, Deputy Brown, has unfortunately fallen victim to a Facebook account takeover. He is currently working tirelessly to regain control of the account.

We want to inform you that several unauthorized posts have been made on his behalf, including one claiming that he is selling a vehicle. Please be aware that this is a scam and Deputy Brown is NOT selling any vehicle. If you have received any messages or comments from his account, we strongly advise you not to respond or engage with them in any way.

We urge everyone not to send any money or personal information to the scammers involved in this fraudulent activity. Your security and safety are of utmost importance to us, and we want to ensure that you do not become a victim of this scam.

Please spread the word within your networks and remain vigilant when interacting with social media accounts.
