I have received a fake legal notice, with unreachable phone number and unidentified address and fake lawyer enrollment number. The notice has caused my family severe stress. I know the person who might have done this illegal act. What should I do?

I’ve reported it to law enforcement, but perhaps as expected nothing came of it.

The address of the fake law firm leads here, according to Google Street View:

This is a common scam making the rounds right now. I’ve received several such phony legal notices, and wrote about them here:

What percent of "being a good programmer" is due to expertise in the syntax of a language(s)? Could you have mastered syntax and still be a bad programmer; or, conversely, be a great programmer with only a fundamental handle on syntax?

There’s actually a person out there offering this as a service: you can give him (or her, I have not been able to find them) money and they’ll send out fake “legal notices” from a fictitious “law firm” that doesn’t exist, with a phony website using AI generated faces for the “law firm”’s lawyers and a Photoshopped picture of a 3D rendering of a university administration building as a picture of the law firm’s headquarters.

Report them to your local police and your local Bar Association, if you’re in the US.

If you know it’s a fake, there’s really no need to stress out about it.
