Yes. A professor at UC-Irvine, so the story goes, lost $300,000 to this type of scam.

ReplyDeleteA mutual acquaintance called back for him, asking for the name of the case, the case number, the court handling the matter, the name of the judge, the address of the courthouse...
...CLICK! Upon redialing, the number was permanently busy.
