Police in Vienna, Va., are warning drivers about a possible red light camera scam.
Someone is reportedly calling people, telling them they were ticketed by a red light camera.
The suspects threaten to put out an arrest warrant unless the victim pays their ticket over the phone with a credit card.
Police said Vienna does not use red light cameras.
Police said they will never ask for personal information over the phone.
Police are reminding people to always request that a caller send the information by mail or hang up and contact police yourself. They can then verify the authenticity of a request for personal information.
