Got a weird call from the municipal office about my family… anyone else?

So this was kind of strange… my dad got a call from someone who said they were from the municipality office. They asked if I, along with my wife, had a child after we got married 4-5 years ago (we got our marriage certificate around that time). My dad gave them the correct info, but I’m not sure why anyone from the municipality would care about that. It feels off. This is actually the second time this has happened! My mom and I remember the first time clearly, but my dad doesn’t seem to recall it as well. Should I be concerned?

Hey, not sure if it’s a scam or not, but usually no one from the government just calls and asks questions like that. Especially when they already have all that info. It sounds a little fishy, to be honest.

Best advice? Stop answering unknown numbers. If it’s important, they’ll leave a message.

Sounds like a scammer who found your marriage details (which can be public record). If they call again, tell them to send a formal letter if it’s legit. Block the number in the meantime.
