BEWARE Potential Telephone Scam / Impersonating a Police Officer
The Mansfield Division of Police would like to alert area residents of a possible phone fraud/scam/impersonating a police officer occurring in our community.
We have received dozens of complaints today from area residents as well as Columbus area residents who advised they are receiving calls from a“Sgt Ryan Grimshaw”. The caller is stating they need to discuss legal documents with them and then leaves a return phone number.
If you call the number you do get a voicemail that identifies as“Sgt. Grimshaw”.
Although the division does have a Sgt. Grimshaw on staff, these phone calls were not made by him. If you do receive a call please do not respond. The division is currently investigating these calls.
If you have any information relating to this please contact Lt. Robert Skropits
at 419-755-9755
