So I received a voicemail yesterday around 2 o’clock and again today around 11 both from a No Caller ID. Both went to voicemail and left very similar messages. I didn’t think much of the first as I’ve gotten somewhat similar calls in the past and deleted the voicemail. But the one today went something like this. “This message is for [my name] this is Erica Scott contacting you again in reference to the certified documentation that requires your signature. [My name] I have failed to receive a stop action notice from the filing party regarding your paperwork so unless I receive a stop action please make sure you will be available to sign for your paperwork either at your residence or place of employment by tomorrow.” They did leave a supposed number for the filing party but I looked it up and got nothing back on numerous websites. Other than the name provided there was no other reference to what it was about, who they were or who this “filing party” is. Is this a scam? It sounds like one. I haven’t received anything in the mail referring to any kind of debts or legal matters. I also checked courts.mo.gov for anything filed against me and nothing. I have yet to fall for any phone scams as I have taken it upon myself to never believe them and just simply never answer the calls and never call them back. Only real difference is most of the time they don’t leave as long of voicemails as this and the call came up as No Caller ID. I can usually trust my instincts comfortably but I also can usually look up the number that called and see a list of scam reports for some extra peace of mind. Thanks in advance.
