A family member got a call from this number saying I had a court date today/this afternoon but he got called at 2:30. I was told to call and talk to Sharon stone. I called the number and it said thank you for calling legal processing services please leave claim number and lawyer info and they will call me back. I did leave my number and name. When I googled legal processing services it said the closes 1 was in Chicago. And when I did a reverse look up on it, it said it was a house number not a business number. I'm pretty sure this is a hoax

Legitimate process servers do not call to warn you, or to get money from you to stop the process. They will deliver the notification without warning.
(Here is more info than you really need on process serving:

Also, if you were threatened with an "arrest warrant" via a phone call or email, read this:
http://news.uscourts.gov/warning-arrest-warrant-scam
"The warrant is phony. A valid warrant would not be served by fax or e-mail. It would be served in person by a U.S. Marshal or other law enforcement officer."
"Anyone receiving a fake arrest warrant should contact the FBI or the district U.S. Marshals Office. If there is any question regarding the authenticity of a warrant, contact your district clerk of court."
This number has called my personal phone as well as numerous family members leaving threatening voicemails. I have returned their calls and asked them to mail me whatever they need to tell me. They have threatened legal action through my county. I contacted my County Courthouse and they also confirmed they have no knowledge of any legal processing company by that name nor would they call before serving legal documents. They have harnessed my son and also my parents as well. I did call them again today and requested a Cease and Desist but they still continue to call. I am unsure as to what to do next. They have told me I am not able to request that and I need to retain a Lawyer.
