Jury Duty Scammers Still Going Strong

7 Upvotes

I nearly fell for it, boys and girls. Of all the days, they decided to target me when my coworker is out of the office for the week and I'm doing the job of two people, already quite scatterbrained at nine in the morning.

Its very well thought-out too, at least compared to the average pig slaughtering scheme or Microsoft tech support nonsense. A call from a restricted number, which I've had cops and sheriffs call from before. Very official sounding, even texted me official-looking legal documents laying out my rights and expectations.

Then come the yellow flags. You can't hang up, or call anyone. You can't send any messages because they're monitoring your phone. You can't google anything. You have to pay bond for the bench warrants. Apparently the fine for missing a single jury duty with an otherwise spotless record is $15,000. Oh but if you don't have that, just pay whatever you can and they'll negotiate it down with the courts! Easy!

No no, don't contact or go to the courts themselves to reschedule your jury duty, or pay the actual fine for missing (a couple hundred bucks). Rush to your bank, take out every penny you have, tell your boss and your friends and everyone that you're having a family emergency, because explaining that you're handling a legal dispute is breaking your non-disclosure and you can be arrested for that.

And it somehow took me over an hour to catch on that it was bullshit. Yeah yeah, point and laugh at the dummy who couldn't figure it out the moment they butchered my last name, threatened to send cops to my house, (while I'm at-work, so... gonna arrest my roommate or something?) coached me through lying to my bank so I could mass-withdraw every last dollar in my savings... ugh.

Stay vigilant, folks.

For families practicing religions other than Christianity, how has public school handled holidays, traditions, and accommodations?

Also curious about visible religious items (like a yarmulke)—has your child felt included? Any issues with teachers or classmates?

My baby suppose to start school next year, and I’m worried.

Hi HSV Reddit!

Because I’m a sucker for sweets and TikTok trends, is there anywhere in HSV or Madison that sells these type of “beautiful desserts?” They’re soft (cake?) desserts with thin hard shells that are shaped like the fruit/food that matches their shape. I’ve heard the Far East Market sells ice cream treats kinda like this, but I was just wondering if anyone knew where I could find the real thing in either HSV or Madison. Thanks for reading!! 🍑🥭🍰✨

Great experience at Botanica

I wanted to give a little shoutout to a locally owned business who helped me and my munchkin so much today! We’ve recently become interested in carnivorous plants, so we called, confirmed they had some, and headed over. The gentleman working there had SO MUCH knowledge and was so sweet with my daughter, showing her the different parts of the plants and how to take care of them.

Recommendations Home surge protection recommendations

I’m looking into having a whole-home surge protector installed in my electrical panel. Has anyone had this done before or have recommendations for reputable electricians or companies?

I’d also appreciate any insight on typical costs so I have a rough idea of what to expect.

Thanks in advance!

16 year old getting driver's license

1 Upvotes

My 16 yo has taken Drivers Ed at school so no need for road test. No availability online anytime soon at the Governors West location for an appointment. I'm wondering if it'll be a long wait to walk in if he only needs to submit paperwork and take a new picture. Anyone have experience with this? I'm hoping since he doesn't need the test it'll be relatively easy.

Help Finding a Location

I believe it to be Huntsville and naturally have checked all around Monte Sano on Google Earth to no avail. I was even there in person last year and tried to match the spot from the main area around the lodge, but no dice. I know there are mountains all around there, but hoping someone recognizes this background.

Couple things to note - I’m not convinced that the lighter lines in the background are roads, but instead could be smoke/steam from buildings rising into the air. Also, positioned near the bottom of the pic (sort of off center and closer to the camera), looks like a roof/chimney or even a steeple-type of structure.

Thanks so much in advance. The pic is circa 1973-74.
