Scammers are posing as court staff or police, claiming you missed jury duty. Hang up immediately. Real courts never demand money. Scammers may know your personal details, but don’t trust them. Never share information, pay for “warrants,” or buy prepaid cards or Bitcoin. To confirm your jury status, call your local court using a phone number you look up yourself.
