(KNZA)--Another new scam has surfaced in Brown County.
Sheriff John Merchant says scammers are calling county residents who have DISH Network and informing them that their receivers are out of date and not compatible with the new satellite configuration.
The caller is informing residents they will have to pay an additional $250 for the upgraded system.
Merchant says county residents have contacted DISH Network and they have been advised this is a scam.
As always, Merchant reminds residents to never give out personal information over the phone or computer.
