Also received a message from this number telling me I was listed as a "third party contact" on a case in both Federal and State court. Insisted I respond immediately to "help" my friend.
Scammers. Do not verify information, do not give in to them on any of their threats. Do not give them any money. they run multiple scams including
Claiming to be law firms
Claiming to be debt collectors
Claiming to be a loan lender
Claiming you are receiving a grant
Claiming they are Tech support and you have viruses on your computer
Claiming you are being sued for fraudulent activities and that they are government officials or police.
and many others..
They will have multiple numbers due to SPOOFING their numbers. Some of the numbers might even be the victims numbers they are stealing. They use india cell phones linked to United States numbers, magic jack, skype, google talk, etc.. to look like they are in the United States. Even though they got our information sold to them and hacked from the United States, the callers themselves are not part of the US. This is why they are hard to trace and our laws do not pertain to them.
