I answered and a woman identified herself as a harris county employee working in the "pre-trial" something or other division. She continued to explain to me that she was calling on behalf of the "plaintiff" who was going to file "charges" against me that were "pending" and proceeded to offer me a phone number so I can "call and speak to the plaintiff about the charges." First, if you are going to be served by the state or anyone wishing to sue you they will not be calling you to give you a heads up. Second, a "plaintiff" doesn't file "charges" against you after they call you and let you know about it, in fact, a "plaintiff" is not going to file "charges" against you at all. In any case it would be a complaint, and again, this would require you to be properly served.
Don't answer any questions, don't verify any of your information, get in touch with your local attorney general office and let them know what happened and give them this phone number. This is a form of extortion and these people are impersonating state officers and using threats to get money out of you, or whatever it is they are trying to get out of you because it could be information. Be vigilant and don't let yourself.
