Randolph County sheriff, library launch scam and internet safety awareness program

Randolph County officials are taking direct action to protect residents from financial exploitation. The Sheriff's Office and the local library system continue their joint partnership to provide clear, actionable information on scam prevention and digital safety.

Criminals frequently focus on retirees and others who have spent years securing their savings. This program offers residents a way to spot warning signs, understand common fraud tactics, and apply practical habits for online security. It is a community-focused effort to keep personal information safe.

Interested residents can attend an upcoming session on August 12, 2026, at 2 p.m. at the Randleman Senior Center. The facility is located at 144 W. Academy St. in Randleman.

For those unable to attend this session, information is available through the sheriff's office and the library system. You can monitor the county website or contact their offices directly to learn about future event dates or to arrange a presentation for your group.
