The β-Mn type Co-Zn-Mn alloys have attracted significant attention due to their ability to host skyrmions at room temperature. Here we discuss the synthesis and magneto-transport properties of high-quality single crystals of Co₈Zn₈Mn₄ with a Curie temperature of 275 K. A linear magnetoresistance (MR) is observed at low temperatures (Tc), the MR curve shows a nonlinear nature which corroborate to the dominance of spin fluctuations over magnons. Scaling of anomalous Hall resistivity with longitudinal resistivity reveals the dominance of skew scattering mechanism. The correlation between the skew scattering contribution and magnetoresistance reveals that the skew scattering contribution stems from the spin fluctuations. Our work provides new insight on the dominance of varied scattering mechanisms in chiral magnets with low conductivity.
