Latest Elder Scam from Officer Andre

Seniors are being targeted by phone calls or emails threatening them with fines and prosecution for failing to comply with a jury summons. The senior is understandably caught off guard and the caller pressures the senior to provide confidential information like the senior’s social security number to help identify that they have the right person on the line.  Courts never call jurors.  It is always done by mail.  These calls and emails should be reported to the local Clerk of Court’s office of the U.S. District Court or by calling Officer Andre Lingham at 410-313-6089.

Obituary

Neighbor Ride extends sincere sympathy to the family of passenger Ken Groner.
