Sheriff warns of IRS phone scam
Montague County Sheriff Paul Cunningham reports an Internal Revenue Service phone scam has made its way into the county.
In this scam, callers threaten residents with possible action by the IRS unless they receive personal information or even financial payments.
“Don’t give anyone your personal information on the phone. The IRS would only contact you by mail or in person,” said the sheriff.
If you receive one of these calls, Cunningham asks you try to get a contact phone number and then report it to the sheriff’s office. Contact the sheriff’s office at 894-2871.
