JURY DUTY SCAM:

This has been verified by the FBI (their link is also included below).

Please pass this on to everyone in your email address book. It is spreading 
fast so be prepared should you get this call. Most of us take those summons 
for jury duty seriously. A new and ominous kind of fraud has surfaced The 
caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you protest that you never 
received a summons for jury duty, the scammer asks you for your Social 
Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information 
and cancel the arrest warrant.

Give out any of this information and bingo, your identity was just stolen.

The fraud has been reported so far in 11 states, including Oklahoma , 
Illinois , and Colorado This (swindle) is particularly insidious because 
they use intimidation over the phone to try to bully people into giving 
information by pretending they are with the court system.

The FBI and the Federal Court System have issued nationwide alerts on their 
web sites, warning consumers about the fraud.



FBI site: warns about the fraud.
