Another wave of the jury scam is here

Scammers posing as court employees or law enforcement officers may threaten to fine or arrest you for allegedly failing to comply with a court order or jury duty summons. This particular scam has been around for decades. If an individual announces they are a court official or law enforcement officer and demands you make some sort of payment so that you can avoid arrest, it is a scam. Hang up the phone and call your local court.
