Loudoun County, Virginia- The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office is asking residents to be wary of telephone calls and e-mails about the economic stimulus package.

The Loudoun Sheriff’s Office has learned that some county residents have received an e-mail claiming to be from the IRS. The e-mail states that you are qualified to receive the 2008 Economic Stimulus Refund. It then asks you to click on a link to fill out a form, apparently for direct deposit into the scammers bank account. There are no reports of victims of this scam in Loudoun County.

The e-mail, according to the IRS, appears to be an identity theft scheme to obtain recipients’ personal and financial information so the scammers can clean out the victims’ financial accounts. The IRS states taxpayers do not have to fill out a separate form to get a stimulus payment or have it directly deposited.

Remember the IRS will never call you to ask for your Social Security number or bank account information or an e-mail you to ask for Social Security or bank account information.

If you believe you were a victim of this scam, you are asked to contact the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office at 703-777-1021 to report the incident.

The 2nd Annual Upper Loudoun Youth Sports Charity Golf Tournament will be held on Thursday, June 5, 2008 at the Loudoun Golf & Country Club. Please fill out the attached Entry Form and submit by May 23, 2008.
