I was going about my day recently when I heard the alert that a text message had come in to my phone. I didn't look at first, but later in the day, I looked at messages and saw that I had an alert from an unknown number. The first clue when it comes to scams is where it's from. If it's an unknown number, there is the first red flag.
No one likes having to perform jury duty. But are there still scammers out there taking advantage of the requirement? You betcha. Beware this new phone scam.
