Today's Poll!Osage County lawmen report phone scam
Friday, September 30, 2011
The Osage County Sheriff’s Office reported this week an Osage County resident was asked to give out financial information as part of a phone scam.
The woman reported the caller claimed to be from Medicare and offered to get her a new card if she would provide her bank number and bank routing number.
The telephone number that registered on the victim’s caller I.D. was 1-999-999-2112.
The victim contacted her bank to advise them of the call and to make sure no account information had been accessed.
Anyone receiving a call like this should contact local law enforcement and never give out personal information over the telephone, officials said.
Osage County residents who receive a similar call should contact Chief Deputy Rob Relford at the Osage County Sheriff's Department at 573-897-3927.
