This was a very unprofessional sounding woman who left a message with so much vagueness and half-[***] attempted legal jargon that one could easily tell it was not only a scam but phishing for info. I do not answer any call do not recognize and on the DNCL. She was claiming that my name (which she had) and social sec # (which she did not read off) had come-up in as "part of a criminal case in MY STATE"....not even stating what State and gave a half assed attempt in reading off a made up case number. Blocked number.
In my life I have worked for over 6 years in a huge law firm so I know for a fact one is NEVER served any legal summons ahead of time by some half-baked caller....nope, this was someone definitely phishing for info trying to use fear to do so. I am a chronically disabled veteran and do not legally owe anyone anything but still found this kind of call alarming at best. It came up on caller ID as "S Carmichael" and she claimed to be calling from a law firm of same name. Quick Google search found this number a landline from Statesville, NC. Caller claimed her name was Raquel Thompson and sounded ghetto as all get out when she spoke. My State's Attorney General has been alerted. So many scams out there, esp. this time of year. May lightening strike this person while on phone trying to scam people.
I contacted my local Sherriff's office as well as y State Attorney General! This is crazy they try to get money from people who struggle in life already! Get a JOB!
