Q. How to verify a settlement class member postcard's authenticity for McNally v. Infosys McCamish Systems LLC?

Q. Is a lady's claim of a large sum of money in Sweden, with me as a beneficiary, legitimate?
A: Chances are overwhelming that this is a scam.

Do not send any money to anyone with respect to this.

Do not send any further personal information to the people that you have been in contact with.

How do you know that the person you were told to contact at the "bank" is really connected to that bank? What can you do to verify their identity, such as looking them up on LinkedIn, or finding contact details for them that match up with the bank?

You can find contact details for Swedbank here - https://www.swedbank.com/about-swedbank/contact-us.html

Best of luck.
Q. How to serve Copart, Inc. in a civil case for a court-ordered vehicle title without a registered agent in MA?
A: The answer may depend on information not in the question.

Where did you buy the car?

Where are you registering it?

Why do you think you need to serve them in Massachusetts?

Copart, Inc. is incorporated in Delaware, and their registered agent is:

Corporation Service Company

251 Little Falls Drive

Wilmington DE 19808

They also have a subsidiary, Copart of Connecticut, Inc., that is registered to do business in Massachusetts and has an agent in Massachusetts. But I don't know what that subsidiary does and whether service on them would suffice.

Best of luck.
