SOUTHAVEN, MS- (WMC-TV) - Southaven Mayor Greg Davis may keep some of the money the state of Mississippi says he owes.

The question being asked by Davis' lawyers: Is a receipt good enough evidence for a city official to ask for reimbursement in Southaven?

Greg Davis' lawyers filed a new motion Wednesday asking for clarification of the rules for reimbursement of Southaven city officials.

Davis' case revolves around the investigation into the mayor's spending habits.

Last year, Davis was ordered to pay back $170,000 to the state.  He paid $9,600 back but his attorneys asked that he get some of that money returned.

In the new motion, attorneys say it will be hard to prove just who spent the money because more than one city employee has the same credit card with the same number.

MEMPHIS, TN- (WMC-TV) - An international phone scam made its way to the Mid-South. It is known as the Jamaican lottery scam and is targeting senior citizens.

Scammers are working out of Jamaica's capital city making calls to the US, selling a fake dream: millions of dollars, new cars and homes won in lotteries and sweepstakes.

The catch? The victims have not entered any sweepstakes.

Jim Warners home phone has been ringing off the hook.

"The first call probably was late last summer, early fall," he said.

The first went to voicemail and his wife called the number back, not knowing it was a Jamaican area code.

"They sound very convincing at first," said Warners. But he and his wife knew it was a scam and they did not offer up any money. Even so, that did not stop the harassing phone calls.

Warners says the calls at first averaged three or four a day. But his wife says she is now getting at least 15 calls each day.
