If you get a call like this, hang up the phone:

The caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you protest that you never received a summons for jury duty, the scammer asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information and cancel the arrest warrant.

Give out any of this information and bingo – your identity was just stolen.

The fraud has been reported in 11 states so far.

The FBI and the federal court system have issued nationwide alerts on their web sites, warning consumers about the fraud.
