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.

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."
They leave threats in English but when you call back they are of Indian decent. The next time they call act like Little John the rapper and only respond with "WHAT!" "WHAT!" "OK!" After about 2 or 3 times of you yelling and interrupting them they will become frustrated hang up and never call back. Well they do but with a different area code. Lmao
Yup, just got the call and they left an automated message. Looked @ my caller id and called back. A man of Indian decent answered the phone and pretended as if he was going to transfer the call. He wanted to know if I had a criminal lawer as legal action was being taken on me. First no one would call over the phone if this were true. I told him that this was a scam and I was turning the number over to autorities. Then he proceeded to say "you eat [***], oh my really you eat [***]?" I hope no one falls for this scam, and hope that they are shut down.
i just got a call from this number they left and automated message on my phone saying to put my work aside and return this call of legeal matters i returned the call he had and thick accent i could barely understand him he told me his name was steven johnson with legal affairs and that he was provideing legal papers where i live to have me arrested in 72 hours did not say what for i told him i know that it is not legal for him to call and threaten to have me arrested he then told me i would serve 3 years in jail i told him what he was doing was not legal he then told me i wish you luck that the law would be here to arrest me in 72 hours
