⚠️ SCAM ALERT ⚠️

We are aware of scam text messages circulating claiming to be from the Georgia State Patrol regarding outstanding violations, fines, or enforcement actions tied to your vehicle.

The Georgia State Patrol will NEVER contact you by text message demanding payment, threatening arrest, or asking you to click a link regarding violations or official correspondence.

Before clicking any links, sharing personal information, or sending money:
• Contact the agency directly using an official phone number or website
• Verify any claims independently
• Never trust unsolicited payment requests by text

Scams like these are becoming increasingly common and are designed to create panic and urgency.

Protect yourself. Slow down, verify first, and when in doubt contact the agency directly.

The Hartwell Police Department always enjoys spending time with our seniors, especially at the Hart County Senior Citizen Center. This is another event during "Georgia Cities Week!"

From a few friendly rounds of bingo to sharing important updates on current scams and how to recognize and avoid them.

We truly appreciate the wisdom, experience, and fellowship our senior community brings. We are proud to help keep you informed, aware, and safe.

If you would like a member of the Hartwell Police Department to provide scam awareness at your local meeting or event, please contact us at 706-376-3111.

Together, we stay informed and protected.

The Hartwell Police Department was proud to participate in the Hart County Head Start/EHS 4th Annual Car Show and Touch-A-Truck Event, held in partnership with the City of Hartwell as we continue celebrating "Georgia Cities Week!"

This event provided a great opportunity for our officers to connect with the heart of our community, our young scholars and the kids of tomorrow.

We truly enjoyed spending time with the children, families, and educators who make our community so special. Events like this help build trust, strengthen relationships, and inspire the next generation.

A special thank you to our community sponsors and our local and state public safety partners for helping make this event a success. Your continued support means a great deal to our department and the community we serve.

The Hartwell Police Department remains committed to being visible, engaged, and invested in our community’s future.

Together, we are building safer, stronger relationships one connection at a time.
