How the crooked shysters like to prey upon people who are ignorant of how law enforcement works! Well, I have cops in my family including DEPUTY CONSTABLES! You say you are from Nevada and you guys probably have deputy constables up there too. I don't know how your legal system works but I DO know that you can go on the Travis County, Texas website to SEE IF there is a real warrant out for your arrest. HOW DID THIS A** GET YOUR PHONE NUMBER ANYWAY? Sounds like to me you need to get an unlisted, unpublished number or CHANGE cell phones out every year or so and make it impossible for them to get your phone number. I do. By the way, if you want to see if you have a warrant out on you in Texas in Travis County --and that is called a 10-99 incidentally in our police ten-code vocabulary, 10-98 in some, you need to go to the switchboard site and get the number for Travis County Precinct Five Constable's office, They would rather have your money than you in jail. It is a legitimate job of a constable to make you pay so they put the warrant out and ANY peace Officer in ANY jurisdiction, ouit of state or not, will be able to pick you up and hold you in jail until they can decide if they want to come and get you. BUT you want to check and see if there is a warrant out for you in the first place before you send ANY check or payment. It could be a SCAM! It's a long-distance call but it is worth your peace of mind. And it will save you some money...
