Sheriff’s Office warns public about scammers impersonating deputies

The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Officials are warning the public that scammers are impersonating deputies and sergeants on the phone in an attempt to defraud people of money.

Deputies recently received a report of a person being scammed out of $1,000. The scammers are using the real names of sheriff’s office employees with a falsified caller ID to make it appear they are calling from the sheriff’s office. Scammers also use fake case numbers.

Scammers claim their targets have an outstanding warrant, unpaid court fees or missed jury duty, and that they must pay a fine with a gift card, cash app or cryptocurrency to avoid being arrested.

Anyone who has been victimized by this scam should file a police report by calling Clackamas County Non-Emergency at 503.655.8211. Also, notify Charbonneau Security Neil Kennedy at 503.694.2300 or email neil@charbonneaucountryclub.com.

Thank you to Shirley Hoem, Neill Kennedy and Marilyn Ellwood for preparing this message.

Annual Shake Out Drill

The following message comes from Marilyn Ellwood, CHOA’s Emergency Preparedness Chair.

IT’S TIME FOR CHARBONNEAU’S ANNUAL SHAKE OUT DRILL

DROP COVER AND HOLD ON

Shake Out is an opportunity to practice how to be safe during an earthquake. Practicing what to do during an earthquake could save your life.

Charbonneau will be holding their annual drill on September 12th at 6:12 PM. Prior to the drill your Neighborhood Captains will be coming by with a flyer explaining what to do. They will also have a sign for you to post telling them if you are OK or need HELP.  Please take the time to do this so we can verify participation in the drill. You will also receive a raffle ticket for an item to add to your Emergency Preparedness kit.

Before the drill identify a safe space in your home to practice DROP COVER AND HOLD ON. Under a sturdy table or desk is ideal. If you are unable to drop to the floor find a sturdy chair or bed to sit on, away from windows, during the drill. Cover your head and neck with your hands until the shaking stops. Do Not run outside or stand in a doorway.

The best time to practice for an emergency is before one happens. Please join us in the Shake Out Drill.

If you have any questions, contact Marilyn Ellwood, Key Captain for CHOA  503 799-8444.

Neighborhood Watch for CHOA

Starting the week of July 1st, your neighborhood block captain for Neighborhood Watch will be stopping by your home to introduce themselves.  They will be reviewing your contact information, asking for an emergency contact for you and giving you security information.  We appreciate your cooperation to ensure you and your neighborhood are safe.  Neighbors helping neighbors.

Did you know:

Wilsonville has an ordinance that requires any solicitor to have a bonafide City of Wilsonville permit.  In order to get that permit Wilsonville does a background check.  If someone comes to your door soliciting, ask to see their permit.  If they do not have one, tell them it is unlawful to solicit in Wilsonville and you will report them.  If security finds them, they will notify the police.
