Don't fall for phone callers asking for money for the Tennessee Sheriffs' Association.

Scammers are calling state residents asking them to donate to the Tennessee Sheriffs' Association.

They identify themselves as a TSA employee or a Tennessee Sheriff's Office employee. They offer to check on the mailing and ask for the person's credit card number.

The Tennessee Sheriffs' Association DOES NOT tele-market or solicit money through phone calls.

If you get a call, DO NOT give out any financial information or your credit card number. Instead, try to get the caller's phone number and report it to the Sheriff's Office's dispatch at 615-898-7770.

The Tennessee Sheriffs' Association is seeking funds through a letter.

The funds will be used for training, fighting for victims' rights and supporting laws to keep Tennesseans safe.

People who want to support TSA are asked to complete a form and send it back to the Tennessee Sheriffs' Association.
