Sound like a.scam

Received a call from non-speaking per son per "a legal" matter they needed to discuss - am 80 years old - have never been in trouble and don't have any legal issues that I am aware of - pretty sure it is a scam

Got a call for a different person with my same name. He asked me my last 4 digits of social. I refused. He asked if mine was the other persons social #. So he gave me their last 4 digits. I was not same person but the call we very odd and messing up quite a lot with weird sounds. The call came in private as well. Suspicious of this number. Does not seem like legit business.

I recently received a call from a restricted number.  The message which was left is as follows:

"Hi, this message is intended for a [XXXXX].  This is David.  I'm calling you from legal support services, uh, in regards to a [XXXXX].  He left this number as a contact in the event I can't get a hold of him.  If you're a friend or relative please have him call into Mulder & Associates at 626-219-0133 and references file #41491TA."

The name he provided for whom he was searching had the same last name as mine.  I do not have a relative with the first name he provided.

The area code is California.  The number is listed as being a VoIP number.

Under the California State Bar website, "Mulder & Associates" could not be found.  The California State Bar site also searches other states as well.

US Bank: Because of the post from "US BANK CREDITOR VALIDATION INFORMATION", I contacted US Bank.  They do not have the phone number or law firm in their system.

ChexSystems:  They have a link to find an attorney for various states.  "Mulder & Associates" is not listed, nor did any of the attorney listed have the first name "David".

For peace of mind, I would highly suggest anyone having received a call from this number to have a credit report run.  He had to get our names and phone numbers from somewhere!  While some information is public record, its better to be safe than sorry.  Use one of the "big 3": TransUnion, Equifax or Experion.  If there is a problem there, report it to them as well as your local police department.

Also, do keep in mind that if someone calls you with alarming information or make repeated calls after being told to stop, most states consider this to be harassment and it is a criminal offense.  Look up your state's criminal statute.  NO financial institution will EVER call you and ask you to verify your personal information.  They already have it if they are the ones initiating the call.

Hope this helps everyone in the future.
