In various parts of the Country people who have filed for Bankruptcy are receiving phone calls from scam artists pretending to be calling from their attorney’s office.  The scammer then tells them that they need to wire money somewhere quickly.

My clients should know that if the call doesn’t come from me, it isn’t from my office; because I don’t use staff.  So, if it doesn’t sound like my voice — it isn’t from me.

However, everyone who has filed recently or is thinking about it, should be familiar with this scam.  Here is a Press release from the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA) with more information.
