I got a call from this same # in Feb,& it really frightened me!! Was scared to even call back for Ive never committed any form of criminal act in my life!! She ended her message saying...see you in court...although once I see my lawyer we may be seeing her in court!! These scams need to stop,& hope they find her!!
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."
I Just got the same message. At first I thought oh no someone stole my identity. It is very upsetting to hear someone say you will be arrested when you have never committed a crime.
Was called at 10:30 and was told that I would be arrested at home or my workplace. See you in court! When I called back, someone by the name of James said I was being arrested for 2 counts against the u.s. government. Guy knew my husband's name. Couldn' t tell me what we were being arrested for but they should be here any minute. I told my son l didn't know what cockamamie [***] they were trying to pull? The guy hung up! My son called the number back and said he was a lawyer representing the family! They hung up on him!!
