The Kentucky State Police in Morehead, through a press release, said they received caution from people who claim they were targeted in an IRS scam.
KSP said the alleged scammers informed people that they owed a debt and threatened legal action if it isn’t paid. According to the IRS website, you will never receive a call from them demanding a payment or threatening to have law enforcement arrest you for non payment.
