They can be found all over the US and 'naturally occur in sewage and pond sediment and are actually sold both live and dried as fish food in pet stores' (from the article). This type of worm is small, just a few inches, and isn't anything like an earthworm. There are hundreds of different types of 'worms' out there, and unless you hang out in sewers or at the bottom of ponds, people don't tend to run into these ones. Wikipedia has more info too.

Sounds like a smoke screen to me... I’ve never seen worms that look like that and I’ve lived in NC most of my life. Sounds like a smoke screen to me…
