scam alert, someone has data mined the County Courthouse civil processing division public records to scam the people getting tickets

After a traffic ticket is issued, it is sent to the county Clerk of the Court’s office, where it becomes a public record.

The ticket details, including date and vehicle type, are accessible online to anyone.

News 6 reported in May and July on jury duty scams where criminals call you and threaten arrest for missed jury duty and demand payment over the phone.

Orange County Sheriff John Mina, Clerk of Courts Tiffany Moore Russell, and Chief Judge Lisa Munyon issued a public service announcement warning the public.

“The clerk’s office will never contact you by phone or email demanding money or personal information,” Russell said.
