I got this email yesterday and it scared the crap out of me. There isn't a phone number in the email at all to call to see if this is even legit:

                                          Garnishment Notification and Arrest Notice

CASE FILE #: UD-07165A

Date: February 28th 2017

Settlement Amount: $500.00
Employer Name: xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Account Details: Bank of America, xxxxxxxxxxxx, xxxxxxxxxxxx

Social Security Number: xxxxxxxxx

Driving License Number: xxxxxxx and State MD

Dear: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,

Address: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
City: Hagerstown,
State: MD,
Zip: 21740.

This letter is to notify you that we have received a Summons of Garnishment on your wages. This means that someone you owe money to has been awarded a judgment by the court for payment of the debt. The court has ordered us, your employer, to deduct

50% percent of your disposable earnings and make payment to the court on your behalf. The following applies to you:

Before you are arrested
If you pay in full, or make a part-payment before you are arrested, the warrant will be recalled and amended. However, it will be immediately re-issued if the debt is not paid in full. After you are arrested. Once the warrant has been served, your only options are to serve the time in prison or pay the debt (plus costs) in full at the Court house with the help of Money Gram.
If you want to stop the garnishment deductions from your paycheck, you must obtain a release or pay the entire amount you owe with the help of Money Gram in order to close this account.

Why am I receiving this notice?

On January 28th 2016   Wee received a garnishment order from a court to [freeze/remove] funds in your account. The amount of the garnishment order was for $750. We are sending you this notice to let you know what we have done in response to the garnishment order. You can contact your creditor for settlement amount.

What is garnishment?

Garnishment is a legal process that allows a creditor to remove funds from your [bank]/[credit union] account to satisfy a debt that you have not paid. In other words, if you owe money to a person or company, they can obtain a court order directing your bank Bank of America  to take money out of your account to pay off your debt. If this happens, you cannot use that money in your account.

If you have any questions about the garnishment, you should contact the persons named on the included Summons of Garnishment by email.

Sincerely,
Jonathan McNichols
Sr. Officer

      I received the same email from Logan Brown but mine says if I don't respond or pay there will be an arrest warrant. I feel this is a scam. My bank account was compromised last month someone I never heard of made a check will all my information. I don't have any checks with my account at all.

        Don't be scared these are scams they all come out of the woodwork. Number one a legitimate company does not send you an email telling you they are going to do it. They just do it. #2 these people pay money to get information about credit reports and that is how they make their money i guarantee you if you call them they want you to get a prepaid card to pay them with.

      1.  There is no such agency as the "UNITED STATES OF FEDERAL MANAGMENT."  (Their inability to spell "management" is another clue that this is fake.)
      2.  This was an email - if it were genuine it would reach you via a letter, in "snail mail."

      I received the same email - spelling and grammar mistakes all over the place.  I have reported it to the FBI tip line.  You may want to contact the credit agencies to report potential identity theft since they have your SSN and DL#.  Fortunately for me, they have a very old bank account number so that doesn't need to be changed.
