Scammer alert...

Another local scam has surfaced and the perpetrator claims to be collecting donations for the Bikers Against Child Abuse (B.A.C.A.) organization.

Apparently a man calling himself  "Big John" has attempted to solicit money from at least one area business. The owner became suspicious when the man refused to take a check, wanted cash only and wouldn't provide an I.D.

Bates County Live spoke with a local member of B.A.C.A. and was informed that "Big John" was not a part of their group nor would anyone in B.A.C.A. solicit for money in this manner.

If anyone has been solicited by "Big John" claiming to be a part of the B.A.C.A. organization, please email us at bateswire@hotmail.com or call 913-669-5848 and we will forward the information to those investigating the incident.

It is believed that "Big John" may be from the Butler area.
