(KLZA)-- The Holt County, Missouri Sheriff's Department is reporting on their Facebook page a large number of scam attempts in the county.
Holt County residents are being contacted by people claiming to be with the IRS. The IRS contact will always be made by certified letter.
Another scam is someone claiming to work for the Holt County Sheriff's Office and stating there is a warrant for the arrest of the person they are calling.
The Sheriff's Office will not give a courtesy call and officers will come find you.
The final scam circulating presently is a call from someone claiming that your social security number has been suspended.
The Social Security Department will contact persons by mail, NEVER by phone.
If you have questions about a call you receive, contact the Holt County Sheriff's Department at 660-446-3300.
