Fraud Advisory: Jury Duty Scam

You receive an official-sounding call telling you that a warrant has been issued for your arrest because you failed to appear for jury duty.

When you protest that you never received a notice, the caller asks for your Social Security number and date of birth so the information can be verified and the arrest warrant cancelled.

Never give out personal information on the phone if you did not initiate the call.
