** IRS TELEPHONE SCAM ALERT ** Continued telephone scams claiming they are the IRS are still ongoing. Visit www.irs.gov
Telephone scams are still ongoing to the residents of Yarmouth and Nationwide, claiming they are the IRS.

Please do not provide them with any financial information, such as, PIN numbers, Credit Card information or your personal bank account, or send them any money or cash wire transfers. The IRS ONLY conducts business through the US Mail service, never by phone or email, and will never ask of your personal finance information.
If you are victim to this type of phone call, contact the Federal Trade Commission or visit their web site at www.ftc.gov and add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments of your complaint.
