The house is located in Monroe Township and set back from roadway. A vehicle stops near mailbox for a short time, then proceeds down the driveway.  At this time, two subjects appear to be outside the vehicle.  One male approaches the front door and stands on the landing for some time before lightly knocking on the door.  The resident quickly answers the door. 

The male states he is there to buy a tree stand his friend told him about.  The resident tells him that she does not have a tree stand for sale.  The resident asks the subject for further information as to who sent him to this address for a tree stand, which he is unable to answer.  As this subject is at the door, he appears nervous and continuously is looking to the driveway area, where the second subject is located. Attached are photographs of the person who approached the front door and the vehicle in question.

The resident spoke with adjacent neighbors and was told that none have a tree stand for sale. 

If you experience this type of incident in your neighborhood or see suspicious persons  please call your local police right away.  Burglar`s tend to knock on or ring doorbells to see if residents are home and have bad excuses as to why they are there if someone answers the door.  If you know this person please submit a TIP thru this site..

BEWARE OF A PHONE SCAM FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT IMPERSONATORS
October 06, 2017

Law Enforcement officials are warning the public about impersonators acting as either U.S. Marshals or local Sheriffs officers telling persons that there are warrants out for their arrests for failure to appear to serve on a Grand Jury.

Persons saying they are employees of the U.S. Marshals and county sheriff`s departments are calling citizens claiming that the answering party failed to appear for federal or local jury duty. The caller then tells the recipient of the call that a warrant has been issued for the individual`s arrest, and that the individual must pay a fine and report to the court. The citizen is later requested to purchase a prepaid debit card, and provide the card information to the caller prior to reporting to court and discovering the fraud.

Citizens are encouraged to verify the information with the appropriate law enforcement agency. Victims of phone or online scams can file a complaint with the FBI`s Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.IC3.gov.

The U.S. Marshals Service is a federal law enforcement agency and does not seek payment of fines or fees via the telephone for individuals with outstanding arrest warrants, the service stated.

The U.S. Marshals Service also warns of another ongoing phone scam where the swindler is claiming to be a U.S. marshal, court officers or law enforcement official looking to seeking to collect a fine in lieu of arrest for failing to report for jury duty.
