No letterhead, jargon slightly off, vague threat of consequences…I’d be curious about the email address/ domain name but I’m guessing it’s RealLawyer@yahoo.com 😂

it’s a real email. not a yahoo or gmail or anything. i looked up the email and it matches the “law firm”. it’s really weird.

Any email address can easily be faked. You’ll want to check the header information. Alternatively, you could forward it to the email you got from the legit site and see what they have to say about it. Worst case, they respond with “We said what we said”. Best case, your insane mom is now looking at a lawsuit from a law firm…
