The Administrative Office of the Courts launched its scam alert webpage today to help protect Kentuckians from payment scams, including those involving fake arrest warrants and missed jury service. The webpage went live today during the Federal Trade Commission’s Identity Theft Awareness Week.

The new webpage aims to help the public stay informed of common fraud schemes, offers tools to help citizens protect themselves and provides an outlet for reporting fraud and getting further assistance. Among the resources on the webpage are a video about tactics criminals use to scam people to get money and personal information, a link to jury service information by county, a fraud fact and tip sheet, and contact information for reporting scams.
