Expert Opinion
Picture this: your business line rings from +12138179751, the voice drops, and the call hangs up with no message. Such silent drops are classic hallmarks of a scam operation that relies on intimidation or curiosity. Avoid engaging—don’t provide any personal or company details. Immediately block the number using your phone system or a reputable third‑party app, and flag it as unwanted in your call‑log. If the caller claims to be from a bank, IRS, or merchant service, verify the claim through official channels before taking any action. Report the incident to the FTC or your local consumer protection agency, and consider enabling caller‑ID authentication services to reduce spoofed calls.
