Ignore the threat and verify before you respond, because the message from 701‑543‑1588 is a classic debt‑collection scam. The repeated wording about a past‑due account, court dates, and urgent payment demands matches known junk‑text patterns that aim to scare recipients into calling a bogus number. Never share personal or financial details with an unknown caller, and avoid clicking any links in the text. Block the number, report it to your carrier, and consider filing a complaint with the FTC or your state consumer protection agency. If you suspect a legitimate debt, contact the creditor directly using a verified phone number from their official website.
I also received the identical text message recently.
I recieved a text saying somone tryed to call me, and i should call a 701 number, but nobodys called me and the text came from a diffrent number
A message was left stating that attempts had been made to contact me, and a court date would be processed, but this is likely a scam.
You have alot of courage to stand up to their threats, that's awsome, good for you.
I recived a text message that was obviousley a scam, so I called the number and spoke with a lady who clamed I had taken a loan, I denied it and she becam angry and started yelling
A text message was received, threatening court action and requesting a call to a different number to prevent it, which appears to be a scam.
I received the same message as others, which suggests a potential scam or automated calling system.
I've had the same experiance, and I've blocked the number and reported it to Verizon as spam.
I recived a text from a number, saying that if I dont call them back, they will procced with a court date on 8/3/21, but I think its a scam
Currently, not sure who they are, haven’t recieved a call but a text about taking me to court and to, which is pretty scary.
They claim i have a past due account and i need to call now to avoid legal action
No relevant or coherent comment is provided here.
I recieved a call saying they made several attempts to contact me, and they would be processing my court date by 7/30/21, I'm not sure what to do.
A message was left claiming to have attempted to contact me multiple times and threatening a court date, however, the message itself seemed suspicious.
I received a text message from an 833 number that included this number in the body, after which I unsubscribed and blocked the sender
A claim was made that a loan was in default and that court action would be taken unless a payment of $300 was made
It's time to accept reality, the election results are clear and there's no use in being bitter.
Similar experiance here, got the same message too
I recived the same messge, and by calling the number, i would be verifying its authenticity, which is what they want, so its best to ignore such messges
Receiving a message with my full name was alarming, and I responded aggressively via text, frustrated by these intrusive attempts to deceive

I received a text message with a similar message content.
I recieved the exact same text message, it's obviuos they think we're all idiots SMH
The message stated that after multiple attempts to contact me, a court date would be set for 7/23/21, and I needed to call immediately to prevent this action from being taken
Totaly a scam, dont answer, they just want to steal from you
I received the same text as others and decided to call the number, speaking to an American-sounding female who should be ashamed of herself for trying to scare people into paying fake debts.
A message was received claiming to be from Michelle Arrington, stating that after several attempts to establish contact, court proceedings would commence on 7/22/21, with a prompt to call to prevent action
Similarly, I got a text that was clearly junk.
I recieved the same text message, but I didnt reply
A text message warned of processing a court date on 7/19/21 if I didn't call to stop the action, eerily similar to the previous messages reported.
