Suddenly, a voice warns you about a county lawsuit and demands you call a number to stop it. This is a classic impersonation scam that preys on fear and confusion. Never share personal or financial details with an unsolicited caller, and do not confirm any alleged legal actions over the phone. Verify any claim by contacting the official county office using a known phone number or website. Block the offending number through your carrier or phone settings, and report the incident to the FTC or your state consumer protection agency. Staying skeptical and checking official sources keeps you safe.
A woman, claiming to represent a county law suit, called and threatened to serve me, instructing me to call back to stop the proceedings, but her behavior was extremely rude.
The claim was that they intended to serve me with a county lawsuit, asking me to call to stop it, but I didn't as I have no pending lawsuits and the area code didn't match my county.
