The Missouri State Highway Patrol is warning citizens of an over the phone scam.

MSHP began receiving calls from the public about scammers calling individuals claiming they have warrants for their arrests. Scammers are using apps that show a Troop Headquarters phone number.

The Patrol says it will not call you if you have a warrant, nor will it ask for payment over the phone. Citizens are reminded to never provide any personal information or banking information over the phone.
