There are so many scams anymore that I just automatically go directly to the official site and check on some things my self to see if they are legit.

 

If I don't recognize a caller, and sometimes even if I do, I let it go to voicemail.

Some scams are so amateurish,  they are laughable but sadly some people fall for them.  Despite all the warnings.

Never got that one but I did get a message letting me know that the local sherif will be coming by to arrest me since I owe the IRS $$$ if I don't pay up by a certain date. 

 

Another of many scams!

Was that sheriff in Texas? Must be the same one that threatened me with arrest if I didn't pay an overdue fine.....never been to Texas Woman Very Happy
