There's a new telephone scam happening. The caller states he is "Captain Darin Dougherty" with the Sonoma County Sheriff's Office. He states you need to call him back regarding a legal matter.

Never provide your bank account, credit card or personal information to anyone on the phone when you receive these types of calls. (photo courtesy SonomaSheriff)
