(WXYZ) â Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is issuing a warning to residents to be on the alert for law enforcement scam calls.
According to a press release from the attorney general s office, illegal robocalls have been reported recently across the state involving scammers impersonating local law enforcement agencies and other companies, and demanding money and/or gift cards.
Scammers are even reportedly falsifying phone numbers that appear on the caller ID to mimic local numbers.
In some instances, according to the AG s office, scammers have been telling the victims that their name is on a package of drugs and money and that there is a warrant out for their arrest. That s when they make their demands to take care of the warrant.
