Nez Perce County officials are warning the public of a phone scam involving someone posing as court employees. 

Victims of the scam may notice a call coming from a court number claiming that a court imposed fine is due and must be paid immediately over the phone. Officials say the county will never demand a payment for a fine over the phone. A written notice is sent to individuals with past due fines. 

Anyone who receives a phone call from someone claiming to be from the court demanding payment, hang up immediately. Under no circumstances ever give them any personal information. (Nez Perce County Clerk)
