There is a report of a new scam involving the federal courts.  This scam involves a juror phishing email that asks recipients to provide personal identifiers (SSN, DOB, mother’s maiden name, etc.) on an attached PDF form and emailed back to the originator.  A sample of the scam email can be seen below.  Please note that courts using eJuror never request that personal identification information be sent directly in an email response. Requests by courts to complete a jury qualification questionnaire would be initiated by formal written correspondence and would provide instructions for the juror participant to be authenticated over a secure connection.   Anyone receiving an email notifying them of jury service and requesting personal identification information through an email should contact the Clerk’s Office at 304-637-2144 to report the incident.
