BEWARE OF REAL ESTATE TAX SCAM

The McHenry County Treasurer's and the McHenry County State's Attorney's Office has learned of a tax scam letter being sent out to real estate owners who owe real estate taxes. A sample of the letter is included. The tax scam letter appears to come from McHenry County, but in the very bottom in small print says as Tax Registry LLC. There is no known address for this company and only phone numbers. Do not be fooled by this mailing, and do not contact this company regarding paying your real estate taxes. Only contact the McHenry County Treasurer's Office at (815) 334-4260 if you owe real estate taxes and want to know how to pay them.
