Scammers Spoofing Maryville Numbers

 Telephone Scammers were very active last Wednesday in Nodaway County and Maryville.  Using a device, the calls look like a Maryville number calling, but it is not.  The caller reports to be from "Publishers Clearing House," "The IRS," or from "Social Security."  Some claim to have warrants for your arrest.  Do not provide any information or call the number back.  

As an update, text messages are also being used.  The intended victim was called by name, and the message said that they came across a package from March pending for you.    It then provided a link to claim ownership.  DO NOT CLICK THE LINK!
