Sheriff's Office Warns Public About Door to Door Salvation Army Scam in Milton

Within the past week, a white female (described below) has gone door to door soliciting donations for the Salvation Army. When the Sheriff's Office was contacted about this activity, deputies contacted representatives from the Salvation Army. The Salvation Army assured the Sheriff's Office that this was a scam, and that the Salvation Army does not solicit door to door for donations. Anyone having similar problems in the future is urged to contact their local law enforcement agency.
