NEF Scam Alert

There has been nationwide reporting of fake Notices of Electronic Filing (NEFs) being sent to attorneys and law firms across the country. The fake NEFs are phishing attempts to convince recipients to respond back to the emails. Once a recipient replies to the email, they are sent a follow-on email containing a link to access a document that leads to a malicious website. Please take caution if you receive one of these fake NEFs - validate cases and case documentation through CM/ECF only, and do not download any attachments or click on any links from unofficial or questionable sources.
