According to police, the scam involves a post alerting the community about a missing police officer who isn't missing. The scam is shared across social media. According to Sherman police, the scammers want people to share the post so they can later change the content, which will include a malicious link.

Buckeye police asked the public to "be suspicious" of a scam making the rounds online that claims a Sgt. Katie Cunningham is missing.

Have you seen a post on Facebook recently, asking you to be on the lookout for a missing police officer? Chances are, you're actually seeing a scam post, authorities say.
