Expert Opinion

Picture this: your phone lights up with a call claiming a county process server needs to deliver urgent legal papers, even giving you a case number and a company name like Oakdale and Associates. The caller asks for personal details or payment to avoid a lawsuit. This is a common scam that preys on fear of legal action. Never share Social Security, banking, or address info over the phone, and never agree to pay to “settle” a claim you didn’t initiate. Verify any legal notice by contacting the actual court or the alleged agency directly. If you suspect fraud, report the number to your carrier and the FTC.
