Sanilac Sheriff warns of scammer claiming to be with local bank

scam

The Sanilac County Sheriff’s Office is warning local businesses to be on high alert due to a newly reported scam.

A person identifying himself as Johnathon Turner has been calling area businesses, falsely claiming to be an employee of Thumb Bank & Trust’s Marlette branch. This is a scam, as Turner is not an employee with the bank, but is pretending to be one to collect personal banking information from unsuspecting victims.

If you receive a suspicious call like this, do not provide any information and hang up immediately. The sheriff’s office further urges the community to report suspicious calls like this to local law enforcement and Thumb Bank & Trust directly.
