Thanks to the warnings from others, I am now aware that the calls pertained to a magazine subscription, allowing me to ignore them, though the frequency of the calls remains unabated
Why People Magazine Keeps Calling You!
Summary — +12012574186
Expert Opinion
Surprisingly, the number keeps showing up as a classic magazine renewal pitch, not a random scam. Most callers claim they’re confirming a subscription you never signed up for, often slipping in vague references to "People" to sound legit. If you’re not a subscriber, let the call go to voicemail and then add the number to your phone’s block list. You can also file a complaint with the FCC or the National Do Not Call Registry. Never share personal data over the phone, and double‑check any renewal offers on the official website before taking action. Staying cautious keeps unwanted sales calls at bay.
