CARES Covid-19 Corona Virus Scam Alert

From my Sheriff's Office: 
Scam Alert! • Economic stimulus checks
Typically, this is the time of the year when IRS scam reports are at their peak, and the COVID-19 outbreak has only added another opportunity for scammers. Last week's announcement of upcoming stimulus checks generated a new element that scammers have started to exploit. It's important to know that the IRS has NOT shared details about the upcoming payments, and will do so as they become available. The IRS will NOT call or email you asking for personal or financial information to help process this check. They will use information from your past income tax returns. If you receive such a call, hang up immediately! For updates and details on the status of these payments, visit irs.gov/coronavirus. Take care.
