Public Notices, sometimes called legal notices,
are published each week in The Georgia Post,
the designated legal organ for Crawford County.
These notices inform the public of certain actions
being taken within the legal system.
A brief synopsis of the various kinds is listed be
low. This is not an all encompassing list and any
questions should be directed to our staff or the
appropriate office.
• Debtors & Creditors, falls under notices dealing
with estates. There are over 20 different kind of
estate notices, the most common being Notice
to Debtors & Creditors. This lets the court know if
a deceased person owes any money to some
one. Most estate notices come from the Probate
Judge's office, the individual themselves or an
attorney.
• Juvenile Court covers a broad spectrum of no
tices dealing with juveniles. It includes adoptions,
custody and name changes for those under age.
These notices can come from the Juvenile Court,
the Probate Court or an attorney.
• Foreclosures, also called Notice of Sale, are
usually the result of non-payment on a loan.
Property used to secure the loan can be taken
back by the lender and sold to pay back the note.
These typically run four weeks, sometimes more.
They usually come from an attorney.
• Tax Sales are also notices of sale but are where
a person has not paid property taxes (ad valorem)
and the county or city is selling the property to
collect the unpaid taxes. Tax Sales usually are
held at least once a year and sometimes twice a
year, depending on the tax commissioner's office.
• Name changes and other domestic issues like
divorce, etc. can come from the probate court or
an attorney.

How Scammers Use Political
Issues to get Your Attention
You’ve likely received a robocall before. A recorded voice
offers you an unbeatable deal or claims to be someone
they are not. In a new twist, scammers are using hotly
debated political issues to grab your attention. These con
artists take advantage of buzzy, emotionally charged news
stories to trick unsuspecting consumers into falling for a
scam.
Here’s how the scam works. You receive a robocall and
answer the phone. A recorded voice - perhaps even one
that sounds just like President Trump, Speaker Nancy
Pelosi, or other prominent politician - explains the pur
pose of the call. According to reports to BBB Scamtracker,
Covid-19 and recent protests are currently popular topics
for these calls. As the 2020 election campaign heats up,
other topics will undoubtedly be used as “bait” to grab
your interest.
If you offer to donate, your money won’t go to support
the political cause. Instead, the phony caller will make off
with your money... and your personal information that
can be used for identity theft.
How to Avoid Robocall Scams
Screen your calls. If a call comes in from a number you
don’t recognize, don’t answer. Even if the number looks
familiar, be wary. Check the number online to see if it’s
been flagged with a fraud alert.
Don’t respond to unsolicited calls. If you receive an
unsolicited call that seems to come from a legitimate
business, be cautious. Scammers can fake caller ID, and
businesses are only allowed to call you if you give them
permission. If someone is calling you out of the blue, it’s
most likely a scam. Best practice is to hang up the phone
without interacting with the caller. Don’t “press 1 to be
removed from our list;” that just confirms to the scammer
that your number is good and will likely result in more
calls in the future.
Register with the Do Not Call Registry. This step won’t
prevent scammers from calling you, but it will reduce the
number of legitimate marketing calls you receive, which
will make it easier to identify the fraudulent ones. If you
live in the US, call 888-382-i222or register online at
donotcall.gov.
To learn more about how to avoid robocall scams, read
BBB.org/RoboCall. If you’ve been the victim of a robocall
scam, report it on the BBB.org/ScamTracker. By doing
so, you can help others protect themselves from falling
prey to similar scams. Learn more about scams at BBB.
