(KNZA)--Brown County Sheriff John Merchant is warning of a bank scam being reported locally.
Merchant says the Sheriff's Office has been receiving complaints from county residents that they are receiving text messages from what appears to be the Blue Valley Bank of Hiawatha.
The text messages state that a debit was set up on their card and they are asking residents to reply or visit a site provided to cancel.
Merchant said he contacted the Bank of Blue Valley and they have not been sending the text messages.
People have reported that they have never been a customer of Blue Valley and are receiving the text messages.
Merchant is asking those who receive such a text to delete it immediately.
If you feel that you have been made a victim of this or any other scam, you should notify your local law enforcement at once and/or your
bank.
