Be on the lookout for this latest scam.<\/p>\n
My sister was the mark in the latest phishing trend. I got a call from 415-463-7573. They had called me and my mom saying that my sister had a summons to appear in court. When I called the number they gave, 855-917-0291, they said she’d have to go to court for a $1,500 debt with a credit card company… but they’d let her pay half of that right now to make the problem go away. Yeah. Right.<\/p>\n
I talked to both people for 5-10 minutes apiece and it was a reasonably crafted scam. But they couldn’t provide any details about the supposed pending court case, they were too quick to say, “but we can settle this right now for half of that amount.”, and they couldn’t provide any details about their own organization.<\/p>\n
