SCAM ALERT: FAKE JAIL CALLS
Families of Cheshire County Department of Corrections arrestees are being targeted by scammers posing as jail staff. They provide accurate inmate details and then demand payment, claiming the inmate qualifies for electronic monitoring release.
Correctional Facility staff never request digital payments by phone. If you get a call like this, hang up and report it to the Police Department.
If you need to check the validity of such a call, please contact:
CCDOC: 603-903-1600
Keene Police (non‑emergency): 603-357-9813
