\"phone<\/a>
\nKentucky Treasurer Todd Hollenbach says scam artists are calling Kentuckians and identifying themselves as a \u201cpre-trial intervention\u201d organization leaving behind a vague and mysterious message.<\/p>\n

The messenger says they have \u201ca pending case in our office that requires your immediate attention!\u201d and goes on to state, \u201cIt is imperative that I speak to you or your attorney of record immediately today.\u201d<\/p>\n

The caller gives a Washington state phone number to call and warns, \u201cIf I do not hear from you or your attorney, I will document that you\u2019ve waived your right to counsel and submit your case!\u201d The message ends with this ominous advice from the caller \u201cGovern yourself accordingly!\u201d<\/p>\n

Hollenbach says this call is an obvious scam to obtain personal information. Legal actions or notice of legal actions are normally handled by mail, not over the phone.<\/p>\n

If you do receive a call you can report it to Attorney General Jack Conway\u2019s Office of Consumer Protection at 888-432-9257 or visit ag.ky.gov for more information on scam calls.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, if you\u2019re looking for some legal tender that you\u2019ve left unclaimed, Treasurer Hollenbach suggests searching the unclaimed property database at MissingMoney.com or if you don\u2019t have access to the internet, you can call Treasury\u2019s Unclaimed Property office toll-free at 800-465-4722.<\/p>\n

Each year, the Kentucky Treasury returns millions of dollars in unclaimed property to Kentucky residents. Since 2008, under the proactive leadership of Treasurer Hollenbach and his Treasure Finder\u2019s Program, the Treasurer has returned a record $ 135-million in unclaimed property. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
