Attorney General Andy Beshear issued a scam alert Tuesday to help Kentuckians avoid falling victim to a jury duty telephone scam. The caller, pretending to be a U.S. Marshall, court worker, or other federal or state law enforcement authority, claims you failed to appear for jury duty and must pay a fine immediately over the phone or risk arrest. Beshear said if you receive this type of call to hang up, as “law enforcement officers and other federal and state authorities will not call to arrange immediate payment of fines over the phone for missing jury duty.”
