Scam artists spoofing phone numbers to pose as police officers, Perkasie police warn

Residents of a Bucks County community are being warned about scam artists who are posing as police officers over the phone.

The caller will then tell the potential victim that they committed a crime or are otherwise in trouble. That will lead to a request for money, police say, usually in the form of gift cards.
