The Barnstable County Sheriff's Office is warning residents about a phone scam.
Officials say they have received reports of a person claiming to be "Sgt. John Haley" with the Sheriff's Office who says he has confidential legal information to discuss.
The BCSO says no one by that name that name works at the sheriff's office, and they never call residents to discuss confidential legal information or ask for payment of any kind.
