works for the 'court system'

Jury Duty

New York, New York

This scammer called my company in Florida saying that he was helping me to get out of Jury Duty in NYC. (Like i have an assistant? Like the NYC courts provide this service? Not)
He wanted my fax number and my bosses name. When we asked for a number to ring him back he said he was in the judge's chamber and that this wasn't a good time to call, but that he would send the fax to our office.

Total scam. I have not been called for Jury duty as i did it 3 years ago. Snopes reported a version of this scam. Spoke with the FBI who put me on to the FTC. They are on it.

These people want money. The say the have a warrant for your arrest and you can get off if you pay X amount of money. NOT.
Beware of any one calling to help you get out of jury duty...
