Unfortunately, scammers calling people and advising they are from Cape PD or another agency. Cape Girardeau police say officers will NEVER advise if you have a warrant over the phone or ask for payment. We also do not accept bitcoin as payment. Be aware of these scams, protect yourself and always verify who you are talking with. A lot of times scammers can make the number appear to be coming from the Cape Girardeau Police Department number or another business line. The best way to make sure you’re talking with an officer is to hang up and YOU call the officer back on the main line.
