Dover Police are alerting everyone to a phone scam. They have received reports that a caller is using an active Dover Police officer’s name and rank and is asking for payment of fines or court fees. Police say this is a scam – Dover Police would never call anyone for these issues or demand payment over the phone for any fines or fees.

Some are being asked for banking information – the caller ID says Delmarva Power. Delmarva Power warns their representatives will never call to ask for cash or request payment using a prepaid credit card.
