Local Scam Alert Our office is aware of a scam targeting family or friends of Adults in Custody (AIC) that have been booked in the last 24 hours. The scammers pretend to be a Sergeant with our office and claim if the family member gives them money (usually around $500 or more), the AIC can be released on a Pretrial bracelet. This is not how our amazing Pretrial program works. If you get a suspicious call like this or have questions or concerns about our programs or a loved one in custody, hang up and call our office directly. How to know if information is really from the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office: • It is on our official website: lincolncountysheriff.net/ • Our staff can verify the information is true. Give us a call at 541-265-4277 if you have questions about a service or need to connect with someone in our Office. • It comes directly from our Lincoln County Sheriff's Office - Oregon, NOT a third party or a comment from another Facebook user. • It comes from one of our other Facebook accounts: Lincoln County Oregon Emergency Management or Lincoln County Animal Shelter Here is a recent Tip of the Week and scam reminder. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BqTrjJSjK/SPRING SCAM REMINDER April showers bring May flowers but scams are always in-season. Ever year Oregonians fall victim to scams from criminals disguising themselves as legitimate organizations or businesses. They are quite savvy in getting you to provide your personal information and create a sense of urgency to get you to act quickly. One popular scam we see in Lincoln County is via phone call. Scammers pretend to be from our agency or another organization calling regarding jury duty, an outstanding fees, etc. Then they pressure you to pay a fine or bail money, often in Bitcoin, gift cards, or other non-traditional payment forms. You should know our office will NOT ask for payment over the phone. Before you share any information with the caller, collect their name, agency, and reason for calling. Then hang up and look up the organization’s real contact information to confirm the call is legitimate. Save our contact information below so that you can quickly verify someone from our office calling. Protect yourself from scams: • Use caution, especially with those you are not familiar with. o When you receive unexpected contacts from people or businesses, over the phone, by mail, email, in person, or on social media, always consider the possibility that the interaction may be a scam. o Remember to call or log on to the organization’s real website to verify the information you’ve been given is accurate. o Verify the caller is from a legitimate organization before sharing any information. If you have trouble verifying an organization’s phone number or website, consider stopping by their office to speak with someone in person. • Protect your passwords and personal information. o Always use password protection. o Don’t share access with others. o Update security software and back up content regularly. o Protect your Wi-Fi network with a password. o Avoid using public computers or Wi-Fi hotspots to access online banking or other personal information. • Ignore unfamiliar attachments or links. o Don’t click on links, open attachments, attempt to unsubscribe, or call any telephone number listed in suspicious messages. o Do NOT give any money, credit card info, or other personal details. o When in doubt, look up the organization’s website or phone number and contact them directly. • Save contact information from official organization’s ahead of time. o Anytime you open a bank account, work with a company, etc., save that organization’s phone number, website, and address so that you can reach out to them if you receive something suspicious or have questions about someone from their agency contacting you. • Know what an organization will and won’t ask for over the phone or through email. o The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office will NOT ask you for payment over the phone. o Most government agencies will not ask for sensitive information such as social security numbers, passwords, etc. over the phone. • Help friends and family learn how to spot a scam. o Protect others by helping them learn and follow scam prevention tips. o Encourage loved ones of all ages to tell you about or otherwise report suspicious calls, texts, emails, and social media messages.

WILDFIRE PREPAREDNESS Wildfires can happen every year in Oregon and it is important to be ready. Here are 10 easy things you can do to get prepared during May’s Wildfire Awareness Month. • Burn yard debris safely. Escaped debris burning is the main cause of wildfires started by people. • Do yard work and use power tools in the spring, not summer, to lower fire risk. • Create a safe space around your home. Start with 5 feet and work up to 30 feet. This helps protect your home if a wildfire comes. • Make sure your address is easy to see from the street so emergency crews can find you. • Know at least two ways to leave your neighborhood in case of evacuation. • Build a 72-hour emergency kit for your family and pets. • Make a communication plan with family, neighbors, and someone out of the area. • Take photos or videos of your belongings and store them safely. • Sign up for Lincoln Alerts to get emergency warnings and updates. • Share these tips with friends, family, and neighbors.

Weeks 9 and 10 of Citizen Academy were action packed! On Week 9, Members from our Patrol and Corrections teams came together to demonstrate some tools deputies have in the jail and on patrol (and some of the times each tool might be used to gain compliance and/or prevent further injuries). After the overview, participants had the chance to practice firing training rounds and tasers at targets. Our team then ran through some scenario response training (role-playing scenarios) with participants to get a glimpse of the ongoing training and situations deputies are in every day. Willing participants had the chance to walk through a scenario such as a conflict in the jail or responding to a suspicious call. In each scenario participants acting as deputies had to try to de-escalate the situation. Afterwards they shared why they made the decisions they did, if they would have done anything differently, and wanted to know how our deputies would have handled the situation. Thanks, Patrol Sergeant Dougherty, Corrections Sergeant Stark, Lieutenant McDowall, Corporal Miller, Deputies DeHaan and Ceras for making the night possible! Week 10 started with a debrief from the prior week’s scenarios. Three of our Peer Support Members, Sergeant Stark, Sergeant Holmes, and Pretrial Specialist Yuson and Peer Support Coordinator Jess Palma held a Critical Incident Debriefing to demonstrate real-life response to incidents affecting our teams. Following the debrief, Patrol Commander Lt. Vertner led the team through a body-cam review of the incidents from week 9 and shared additional information on how our office handles stressful situation; emphasizing why consistent, continued training is vital. Palma then took the class through a deeper look at our robust wellness program. Wellness, resiliency, and support is vital for our team members -when they are at their best, they can do their best for our communities. Interested in joining the 2028 Citizen Academy? Submit your application now and we will contact you when it opens. Application link: www.volgistics.com/appform/186813Photos from Lincoln County Sheriff's Office - Oregon's post

This week is Animal Control Officer Appreciation Week, a time dedicated to recognizing the hardworking professionals who protect animals and serve our communities. This team works tirelessly and often in challenging conditions to ensure the safety of both people and animals. Our Animal Services Deputies (ASDs) do more than just enforce laws. They are first responders for animals in need, providing lifesaving care, rescuing the lost, preventing cruelty, and educating the public. Meet our two animal services deputies: After graduating from Toledo High School, Animal Services Deputy David Martin, served 22 years in the United States Air Force earning several accolades for his service. He joined our team in 2011 as an animal service deputy. When Dave is away from work, he enjoys the outdoors, practicing calligraphy, and can name any guitarist he hears. We have been told he is an excellent cook…but we are still waiting on some samples so we can confirm that information. Animal Services Deputy Anthony Panousopoulos joined our team in late January 2025 after relocating from Arizona and moving to Oregon with his family. Anthony is a retired police officer with 20 years of service with Phoenix, AZ and former livestock officer for the Arizona Department of Agriculture. He enjoys outdoor activities and has been enjoying everything Oregon has to offer.Photos from Lincoln County Sheriff's Office - Oregon's post
