Noticeable patterns emerge across the reports, showing callers repeatedly pose as court officials or debt collectors demanding immediate payment to avoid a fabricated lawsuit. They often cite a bogus case number, use a familiar name, and create urgency by mentioning a “statute of limitations” or “process server” threat. Never share personal or financial details until you independently verify the claim with the court or the named institution. Hang up, block the number, and report the incident to the FTC or your state attorney general. Document the call and educate family members to recognize similar tactics.
