WESTERVILLE, Ohio — The Westerville Division of Police have a warning about a new scam.
Westerville police say scammers are impersonating officers by using the names and positions of police officers.
Police say they received a call from someone saying they needed to pay fines by paying for them in gift cards.
The scammers told people they needed to go get the gift cards or they would be arrested. They also said not to tell anyone because of a gag order.
