SCAM ALERT: CALLS FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF NORTH CAROLINA

We have received reports of a phone scam spoofing the Supreme Court of North
Carolina’s main phone number 919-831-5700. Scammers claim to be calling from the
Supreme Court and may threaten legal action, a warrant, jail time, or request
payment or personal / financial sensitive information. If you receive such a
call, hang up. It is a scam!


ABOUT

The Supreme Court of North Carolina is the state’s highest court, and there is
no further appeal from its decisions on matters of state law. It is made up of
the Chief Justice, who also serves as head of the Judicial Branch, and six
associate justices. Each justice serves an eight-year term. The Supreme Court
has no jury and makes no determinations of fact, but it considers whether error
occurred at trial or in judicial interpretation of the law.
