This is the second call from this number, claiming to be from "Sgt. Jackson of the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Dept", trying to reach my (3 yrs dead) relative about "an urgent court matter". The first time, we reported the call to our local police, who called the number and were told (by the purported Sgt) that he didn't have time to talk to them. Their assessment is that it was a spam call. Today I called the Sheriff's Dept directly: they checked and do NOT have a Sgt. Jackson on active employment. Their assessment is also that it is a spam call.

My mom got a call from this Sargent Jackson today. He stated she didn't show up for jury duty this month which is completely false . We didn't know anything about jury duty. My mom thought it was a scam so I asked him to speak to the sheriffs dept and he gave me this number: 408-404-8446. He said his badge # was 3319. This has gotta be fake.
"Sargent Jackson" just called here looking for my son, with the exact same message and ph # as above. He tripped himself up a bit, first claiming to be from "Santa Ana County Sheriff's Dept" before correcting it to "Santa Clara". I missed a great opportunity to tell him that my records show that he didn't show up for jury duty this month :)
