Notice Regarding Phone Calls Appearing To Orginate From The U.S. Attorney's Office

The following press release was published by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the United States Attorneys on Nov. 7, 2019. It is reproduced in full below.

Over the past week, many members of the public have let us know they are receiving phone calls that appear to be coming from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, but are not actually coming from this office. It appears that these calls are being made to look like they are coming from the U.S. Attorney’s Office through the use of a fake caller ID, which is falsely stating that the call is coming from a number associated with the U.S. Attorney’s Office. The false use of caller ID is also known as “spoofing." For more information regarding “spoofing" please visit: https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/spoofing-and-caller-id

Members of the public who are concerned about whether they have received a legitimate call from the U.S. Attorney’s Office may call us and inquire. The main line for the US Attorney’s Office is 303-454-0100.
