Media Advisory Alert: Beware Scam Callers Impersonating Sheriff #PGSO
Bad News: Phone Scammers at it Again, Good News: Citizens Alert Sheriff’s Office
Upper Marlboro, MD…The Prince George’s County Office of the Sheriff is, once again, advising county residents to beware of scam callers asking for money to close open warrants or resolve other court-related actions. Chief Assistant Sheriff Darrin Palmer said, “Over the last couple of days we’ve gotten over 20 phone calls from county residents reporting scam callers who’ve asked them for payment to close warrants or some other court action.”
Over the last 3-4 years, the Office of the Sheriff has issued several messages to the public through the media, at community meetings, and through its in-house communications vehicles to let citizens know that there are no circumstances under which the Office of the Sheriff requests money from citizens to resolve open court matters. Col. Palmer said the Office of the Sheriff will continue to notify citizens as many times as necessary. Explaining that scammers use the law enforcement angle to scare victims into giving them money. Often, their message is to ask for a transfer of funds via gift cards or wire transactions, Palmer said.
“We advise citizens not to engage with scammers on the phone and under no circumstances should they make any payment to them or give out personal information. The good news here is that informed citizens knew about these calls and the scammers were unsuccessful.”
The Office of the Sheriff is asking the media to advise citizens of these scams. If anyone receives a call to contact the Prince Georges County Police at 301-772-4420 to file an incident report.

PGCPS offering free immunizations for students at Hyattsville clinic this week #PGSO
by Cheryl Conner/ABC7
HYATTSVILLE, Md. (ABC7) — Emmanuel Imo is heading into seventh grade, but his first test is at an immunization clinic in Hyattsville.
“I’m not ready to get two shots on my right arm," said Imo.
Seventh graders need immunization updates — both Tdap and Meningitis vaccines. Kindergarten students will need two doses of the Chicken Pox vaccine.
Free is hopefully simple for parents taking their kids to Kaiser Permanente at the Prince George’s Medical Center building.
Doctor Rennie Thomas says there could be a big turnout throughout the week as more than 6,000 seventh graders need the shots.
“As a pediatrician, I think immunizations are one of the most important things a parent can do to help prevent serious childhood disease, so I absolutely think immunizations are vital, said
Prince George’s County Public Schools says a child must have at least one of every type of immunization to start the school year as well as a note showing an appointment that will happen no later than 20 days after the start of the school year on September 4.
The free clinic is happening through the end of the week.
