専門家の見解
Surprisingly, many voicemail threats about lawsuits turn out to be pure intimidation tactics. The caller claims you’re named in a proceeding, but no official documentation follows, and the callback number often appears on scam‑watch lists. Never return the call to an unfamiliar number; instead, let the message go and verify any claim through official channels. Use your phone’s block feature, report the number to the FTC or your carrier, and consider a call‑blocking app. Keep personal info locked down, and if you suspect a fraud, file a complaint with the appropriate consumer protection agency. Staying skeptical stops the cycle.
