is currently working about one hundred different arrest scams but the latest is targeting medical professionals, and the sheriff’s department is getting several reports a day from local victims who are losing thousands of dollars, threatening to be arrested.

Van Keuren isn’t surprised that medical professionals are being targeted, because she says scammers know they’ll go to great lengths to make sure their license to practice is protected. He says these sophisticated scammers are using real deputies’ names when they reach out to these medical professionals and even spoofing the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department phone number, all while pressing the victims to act quickly.
