LA County Court Warns Residents About Jury Duty Scam The Los Angeles County Superior Court is warning residents about a jury duty scam in which callers impersonate court officials and demand money for supposedly missing jury service. The scammers may claim that a warrant has been issued and pressure victims into making an immediate payment. Court officials stress that the court does not call residents demanding payment for failing to appear for jury duty. With scammers increasingly able to spoof phone numbers and make calls appear legitimate, residents are being urged not to provide personal or financial information to unexpected callers claiming to represent the court. Anyone receiving such a call should hang up rather than sending money or providing banking information.
