Gardai at Naas say they have been "inundated with phone calls from members of the public ringing in reporting fraudulent/scam phone calls."
The numbers usually begin with 083.
Gardai say the scam involves an "automated voice recording informing the person that they have committed an offence and if the person presses 1 they are put through to a person who tries to entice information from them."
Naas Gardai wish to inform the public to be vigilant of these phone calls and to not give out any information over the phone to these scammers.
