弗吉尼亚州西部地区的美国地方法院已警告公众最近对全州犯罪分子和骗子的剥削。法院在其备忘录中提到罪犯一直在伪造伪造逮捕令，以该地区的人员为目标。

According to the memo, the scammers have targeted several individuals, accusing them of missing jury duties. The criminals convince their victims and end up offering them a way out, which is usually a payment in Bitcoin or gift cards. To achieve this, they make use of realistic court style documents and urgent threats to exploit their victims.

根据备忘录，诈骗者针对几个人，指责他们缺少陪审团职责。罪犯说服受害者，最终为他们提供出路，这通常是用比特币或礼品卡付款。为了实现这一目标，他们利用现实的法院风格文件和紧急威胁来利用受害者。

西弗吉尼亚法院对上升骗局的公开警告

According to the memo, after their victims have agreed to pay the penalty for missing jury duty, the criminals then guide them on how to pay using Bitcoin and other methods. “The scammers demand payment by Bitcoin, gift cards, or bank account information to resolve the issue,” the statement reads.

根据备忘录，在受害者同意为失踪陪审团付出罚款之后，罪犯随后指导他们如何使用比特币和其他方法支付​​。声明说：“骗子要求通过比特币，礼品卡或银行帐户信息来解决问题。”

The West Virginia court also urged individuals not to fall for these scams as the court won’t issue arrest warrants for missing jury duty unless they have been previously summoned and missed it. “Please be advised that the United States District Courts do not issue arrest warrants for failing to appear for jury duty unless you have been summoned for jury duty and fail to appear,” the statement continued.

西弗吉尼亚州法院还敦促个人不要陷入这些骗局，因为法院不会因陪审团缺席逮捕令，除非他们以前被召唤并错过了陪审团。声明继续说：“请告知，美国地方法院没有因陪审团而没有出庭而签发逮捕令，除非您因陪审团的责任而被召唤，否则未履行陪审团。”

The West Virginia court also urged individuals to clarify if the calls are genuine if they are contacted for failing to show up for jury duty. It also asked those who have received suspicious messages to pay using Bitcoin, gift cards, and other methods to contact them. “If you receive an arrest warrant or other document purportedly from the United States District Courts that demands money, particularly Bitcoin and gift cards with payment by phone, please contact the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia,” the statement said.

西弗吉尼亚州法院还敦促个人澄清是否与陪审团履行陪审团有关，是否与他们联系。它还要求那些收到可疑消息的人使用比特币，礼品卡和其他方法来付款。声明说：“如果您收到据称是从美国地方法院收到需要金钱的逮捕令或其他文件，尤其是通过电话付款的比特币和礼品卡，请与美国地方法院联系弗吉尼亚州西部地区。”

This case is not isolated as other states in the country have witnessed a rise in these kinds of scams. For instance, a previous report mentioned the rise in the activities of con artists targeting elderly people in Pima County in Arizona. These criminals pretend to be officers from the Pima County Sheriff’s Department (PCSD) to carry out several evil activities.

此案不隔离，因为该国其他国家目睹了这类骗局的上升。例如，先前的报告提到针对亚利桑那州皮马县老年人的骗子活动的活动增加。这些罪犯假装是皮马县警长部（PCSD）的官员，以开展几项邪恶的活动。

Financial Crimes Detective in PCSD Michael Wilson mentioned that the rate of these crimes has ticked up these past few days. He mentioned that the criminals employed the same tactics of threatening elderly ones of not showing up and noting that they have a warrant for their arrest. “They will say: Hey you unfortunately didn't show up for jury duty and as a result, you have a warrant for your arrest,” Wilson said.

PCSD迈克尔·威尔逊（PCSD Michael Wilson）的金融犯罪侦探提到，过去几天，这些犯罪的速度已经提高了。他提到，罪犯采用了威胁老年人的同样策略，即不露面，并指出他们有逮捕令。威尔逊说：“他们会说：嘿，不幸的是，您没有出于陪审团的职责而出现，因此您有被捕的逮捕令。”

Wilson mentioned that PCSD has been trying to sensitize the general public about these issues. He noted that they have begun hanging signs on top of these ATMs to dissuade people from sending funds to criminal elements.

威尔逊（Wilson）提到，PCSD一直在试图对这些问题提高公众。他指出，他们已经开始在这些自动取款机上悬挂标志，以阻止人们向犯罪分子汇款。
