Scam Alert in Stephens Co.

The Toccoa Record is reporting an apparent scam.

Toccoa Record Publisher Tom Law said that the paper has received reports from individuals that someone is calling people in the area, claiming to be from the Record and asking people to purchase subscriptions for the paper over the phone.

Law said that the Record is not currently making any such calls, so these calls are not coming from the Record.

People should not give out any personal information to the person if they receive such a call.
