Callers in New Scam Claim to be from ALEA, Demand Credit Card Information

MONTGOMERY – The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) has become aware of a scam involving callers claiming to be  ALEA officers with warrants for an individual’s arrest unless the individual provides credit card information.

ALEA does not conduct business in such a manner, email copies of warrants or solicit credit card numbers or other personal details by phone in lieu of arrest.

Members of the public should report similar calls to their local law enforcement agencies.
