Citizens of Miles City and Custer County targeted in a phone scam. 
There have been multiple reports of a male calling Custer County and Miles City residents claiming to be a Custer County Sheriff's Deputy named Brian O'Connor. This "Deputy O'Connor" is demanding around $4000 from residents in the form of Green Dot Money Paks from Albertson's. The person posing as "Deputy O'Connor" says the payment is a penalty for failing to appear for a mandated court appearance. The person is threatening a contempt of court charge if payment is not made.
The return phone number for this "Deputy" is a local number. Upon call back a voicemail message identifies the number as "The Custer County Sheriff's Office".
There is no Deputy Brain O'Connor in Custer County Montana and the phone number given is false. Law Enforcement will never call and demand payment for any offense. Please report any such phone calls to your local dispatch center at 406-232-3411.
