(Springfield, IL) — The Illinois State Police is warning people about a phone scam claiming to be associated with the ISP. Authorities say a caller claims they are with the police and either asks for a donation or warns that an arrest warrant has been issued and a fine must be paid. Cops say scammers have ways to display what appears to be a legitimate phone number on caller ID and people should be wary when asked to turn over personal information or to pay money over the phone.
