SHAWANO COUNTY, WI – Shawano County officials are warning residents about a scam targeting individuals involved in public hearings or permit application processes. Scammers are reportedly impersonating county employees and requesting fraudulent payments.
Authorities emphasize that Shawano County will never ask for unexpected payments over the phone or via email. Anyone who receives such a request is urged to verify the information by contacting the county directly.
Residents who suspect they’ve been targeted or have questions are encouraged to report the incident to the Shawano County Sheriff’s Office or their local law enforcement agency.
