Q: I have received text messages from this person I not sure if it’s really or not
As of today you have failed to respond to the settlement offers. Our client has attempted to work with you all multiple times. Be advised today we have sent out certified mail to the department of labor. This included the request to attach your bank account and garnish the wages. This will be in effect until our client's balance is fully liquidated. I just emailed your Bank to make them aware we are enforcing liens against you per Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code.
A: The language used indicates that this is very likely a scam, but you cannot get a reliable answer from an online forum as to whether someone contacting you is "real" or not. Since the person says he/she "just emailed your bank", you can contact your bank to inquire about it. If you determine the texter is a scammer, block their number.
