OPP warn of another Phone Scam

Local residents are being warned about another phone scam that's
been reported in the Kenora area.

The OPP say someone has been calling local homes, saying they work for the local court house

The caller goes on to say they are attempting to clear up minor outstanding fines in the community and they then offer the chance to pay your outstanding fine over the phone by credit card.

Police say often there are no outstanding fines, but some people have been paying without
first checking with the local court house.

The OPP say court offices do not use this method to collect outstanding fines.
