Identity thieves have called and threatened persons for failing to report to jury service in various counties to receive money. Thieves asked for confidential information and claimed to be with the District Clerk's Office. These scammers are threatening jurors in an attempt to fraudulently receive money. DO NOT give them money or credit card information.

The staff of the Fort Bend County District Clerk's Office will NEVER call you and ask for your Social Security Number, credit card numbers or other sensitive information.

DO NOT give out such information to anyone who calls you that claims to be with the District Clerk's Office. If you have any doubts about a caller who claims to be from the Fort Bend County District Clerk's Office, please verify their identity before giving out information.

 
The District Clerk's Office has taken every precaution to ensure your visit to the Fort Bend Justice Center is a safe and healthy one.
