LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — The Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration is warning people about a new scam text claiming to be from the Department.
The text cites Arkansas Code §26-18-507, which governs claims for refunds of tax overpayments. It then tells the user to reply to receive a link.
"The Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration will never text you seeking your bank account details," Department spokesperson Scott Hardin said. "Scammers are continually updating this text and trying new versions to steal Arkansans’ hard-earned money."
