Sullivan Chief of Police John Love has issued a warning to residents about a telephone scam from people claiming to be from the IRS.

“We have received reports from 20 residents concerning the scam,” Love said, noting the caller claims the local police will be called to arrest the resident if they don’t send money immediately.

Love would like to remind the citizens of Sullivan this is not going to happen because city police are not implemented to enforce Internal Revenue Department violations.
