Woman says a caller posing as an officer told her to meet someone ‘near the police station’ and claimed he could see which apps she had open

A TikTok creator claims she thought she was speaking to a police officer when a caller told her there was a warrant out for her arrest. Jordan, who posts on the platform as @jorlala and is also known as Bhadbharista, shared the experience in a video.

Jordan explained that the call allegedly came through with “Anonymous” displayed on the caller ID. The man apparently introduced himself as Officer Daniels and claimed he was calling about an ongoing case involving the restaurant where Jordan worked. Because she had a court appearance scheduled for the following month over an alleged assault by a customer two years earlier, she initially thought the call might be connected to that matter.

However, the caller soon shifted to a different claim. He allegedly told Jordan that she had failed to appear for jury duty two months earlier and that a warrant had been issued for her arrest. The claim confused her, as she said she had no knowledge of such a case.

She didn’t fall into the trap

Jordan claimed she questioned why an actual officer would call her workplace instead of contacting her cellphone. The caller reportedly insisted that attempts to reach her personal number had failed and continued warning her that she could be taken into custody.

Then came what Jordan described as one of the most alarming parts of the conversation. The caller allegedly told her, “To avoid being arrested, you can’t go to the police station, but you need to meet with an officer NEAR the police station.” Rather than asking her to report to an official location, he reportedly directed her to meet someone at an undisclosed spot nearby. He also allegedly warned that entering the police station would result in her arrest.

Jordan decided to put the call on speakerphone and record it with her cellphone. According to her account, the caller noticed and instructed her to switch to her personal phone, so she reportedly gave him her number.

The situation became even stranger when the man allegedly claimed he could see which apps she had open and told her to close them. Jordan said she followed his instructions before eventually asking whether the call was a scam. The caller reportedly denied it, arguing that he had not asked her for money, and said they wanted “HER.”

Phone scams involving people posing as trusted officials have cost others dearly, including a Colorado woman who lost her life savings after a call she believed was from her bank. In Jordan’s case, she said the caller never asked for money.

Jordan said she grew increasingly uneasy as he continued insisting that she meet the supposed officer away from the station. He allegedly offered to direct her to the location while keeping her on the phone.

Ultimately, she decided to go to the police station anyway, despite the caller’s warnings. Jordan claimed that the station was only about four minutes away and that she regularly served coffee to officers there. She says she challenged the caller to send someone to arrest her, after which he allegedly said he would and ended the call.

Other women have shared how they spotted scams before losing anything, including one who foiled a fake GameStop purchase scam after a suspicious text and call. Jordan’s video has drawn attention for how closely the caller’s story mimicked a real police matter.

Jordan then went to the station to report what had happened. Although it was apparently closed, she said a man inside directed her to a phone that connected her with an on-duty officer, and she used it to explain the call. She suspected the incident could have been an attempt to lure her somewhere under false pretenses. Police have not publicly commented on the call, and Jordan’s account could not be independently verified.
