San Diego police asked for the public’s help today in finding a man running a phone scam where he pretends to be a law enforcement officer.
The suspect has victimized three businesses, said San Diego police spokeswoman Monica Munoz. The suspect, pretending to be a law enforcement officer, calls a business and asks to speak with a manager.
The caller then says one of the business’ employees was arrested for drunken driving and needs money wired to a specific location for the person to be released, Munoz said. The caller also says the employee asked that the call be made and that the matter be kept confidential. Officials believe there are more victims, Munoz said.
Officials are stressing to the public that no one in law enforcement will call and ask for bail money to be wired, Munoz said. San Diego police is asking anyone with information on the suspect or anyone who may have been a victim
