Who called from 7162476266

I got a message stating that I needed to call this number within two days or I would be served with papers at my job or residence. That was weeks ago and nothing ever happened. I think it's another one of those phone scams going around.

Nicole,

Did they leave you a message?

Kris

I don't know who these people are, but they left me a message yesterday and one again today. They are requesting that I be at my home or place of employment on Friday to serve me papers.

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."

Definitions, if you need 'em:
* A =summons= is an official notice of a lawsuit. It is given to the person being sued (the defendant).
* A =subpoena= is a court order. It requires someone to come to court, go to a deposition, or give documents or evidence.

ID themselves as Check Security.
