1:58pm Male reported an IRS phone scam.
We have been receiving calls, and individuals have been coming in to report telephone calls, text messages, emails
and social media contacts, with people asking for personal information, bank account information and needing
to send money or gift cards to relatives, calls reporting fraudulent activity on an account or card or reporting accidents.
Along with individuals receiving checks for large amounts of money.
These are scams, if it seems suspicious DO NOT GIVE any information to the caller. Ask for a call back phone
number and call them back to see if it is who they are claiming to be or simply HANG UP.
If you don’t recognize the phone number on the caller ID, don’t answer it. If it is a person who truly
needed to contact you, they will leave a message. If you don’t know the sender of the check, do not cash it.
The IRS and the Federal Justice System do not contact people via telephone.
Always remember the key things regarding scams:
- If you didn't enter, you didn't win
- If you have to pay to receive your prize, you didn’t win.
- If you have a lawsuit or other legal issues pending you will get notification via certified mail or served to
- you by an official, whether it is a law enforcement officer or a civil process server
If you feel you have been a victim of a scam, please follow the link below to the Office of Consumer Protection.

You can also call the National Do Not Call Registry phone number, 1-888-382-1222, to have your phone number

For emails, there is an option at the top of your email screen to report emails and block the sender’s email.
