[ARCHIVED] Fraud

On December 1, 2014 at 9:51 am Hampton Township Police responded to Tanglewood Dr. for a fraud report. The caller reported that at approximately 9:30 AM this morning, she received a phone call from a man identified only as Eric who was requesting $2800.00 due to failure to pay taxes to the IRS from 2007-2014. Eric advised that if she did not provide him with this money, that two Police officers from Texas as well as one from her local municipality would be arriving in an hour with a warrant for her arrest. The caller was advised that this was a scam and asked if she had provided Eric with any personal information, to which she stated she had not. This is a typical scam and residents should remember to never provide information over the phone and that the IRS will not call and threaten to arrest you if you do not pay a certain dollar amount. Residents can also file a complaint the IRS, the FTC, and stopfraud.gov.
