Calls from unknown numbers can spark immediate suspicion in today's digital age. Without specific reports on this number, it's wise to treat it as potentially risky—scammers often spoof local area codes to seem legitimate. Always verify the caller independently using official channels, never share personal details over unsolicited calls, and consider registering with do-not-call lists to reduce unwanted contacts. Enabling call-blocking apps on your phone adds another layer of protection. If the call persists or feels off, report it to authorities for broader awareness.
Another scam: the caller said my computer was infected and needed immediate remote access. Definitely a hoax.
