What should I do if I think I may be the victim of property fraud?

Contact the Citrus County Sheriff’s Office at (352) 726-4488 and/or your attorney or legal advisor.

Neither the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller, Property Appraiser, or Tax Collector offices can take legal action on your behalf to reverse the fraudulent activity.
