Scammers Targeting DV Victims in Colorado | Colorado Springs News

Scammers are targeting Colorado domestic violence victims with fake calls pretending to be cops or bail bondsmen, demanding cash to release abusers from jail—often for way less than the actual bond. One woman nearly lost everything after being pressured into sending $1,600, but her locked bank accounts saved her. Prosecutors warn these scams exploit victims’ lingering emotional ties or financial dependence, and victims may feel ashamed if they fall for it. Real authorities will never ask for money over the phone—always verify by calling official lines yourself. Stay vigilant.
