This person called and said he was a Deputy Handwell, Badge #1653924 and told me I was going to be arrested for not showing up twice for court. I needed to get a voucher or money order and pay a bond so my hearing could be rescheduled. I called the Sheriff's Dept. to see if there was such a person and they told me it was a scam. I knew I did nothing wrong to be arrested so I kind of thought it was a scam that I had heard about on the news a few months ago. The Sheriff's Dept. said they would not call anyone with a "courtesy" call. They just show up and arrest you. BEWARE of these scammers. They really sound legitimate and try to scare you into paying for something you haven't a clue about.
