SCAM ALERT!
The Mustang Police Department has received numerous calls in reference to a scam using the Department’s name and telephone number, (405) 376-2488. The caller informs the victim he is a police officer with the Mustang Police Department and the victim has a warrant issued for their arrest. The caller uses personal information about the victim adding to the authenticity of the call. The caller requests the victim go to a kiosk and put funds on a specific card and forward the funds to a specific location. The Mustang Police Department does not make requests such as this, so please do not fall victim to this type of scam.
