***IRS SCAM ALERT***
Unfortunately, it's that time of year again where individuals purporting to be representatives of the IRS are calling Morgan County residents randomly in an effort to deceive them into paying debts that do not exist.

The IRS does not conduct debt collections over the telephone, so please ignore these calls, hang up on them and block whatever number(s) they call from....CAB
