Sheriff warns of new scam
01/28/2021

(KNZA)--Brown County Sheriff John Merchant is warning of a new scam circulating locally.

People are being contacted by phone by an individual representing themselves as being with an agency soliciting money for T-shirts on behalf of a local school. They are requesting $1,300 from businesses that will give them exclusive advertising on the T-shirts with messages on texting and driving safety. 

Local school officials state they have no knowledge of such a program going on in their behalf.

The individual's name contacting businesses is Nathan Arnold.

If you receive such a call, you can call the Hiawatha School Board Office at 785-742-2224 to verify the validity of the call, and if you feel you have been a victim of a scam contact your local law enforcement agency at once.
