(KLZA)--The Richardson County Sheriff's office is warning the public of a phone scam.
The sheriff's office says they have received reports that the callers are telling people that their Social Security number has been stolen and if they don't send money, then someone will arrest them. That is not true.
The sheriff's office wants to remind you not to give out any personal information over the phone. Do not buy gift cards and give the numbers to the scammers. Actual Law Enforcement would never call to tell you to pay over the phone to get out of being arrested.
If you have any concerns about any phone call you get you can call the sheriff's office at 402-245-2479
