If you get a call from an unknown number, the safest move is to let it go to voicemail. Don’t share personal details like Social Security numbers, bank info, or passwords unless you’re absolutely sure who’s on the other end. Use your phone’s built‑in block feature or a third‑party app to silence repeat offenders. Report suspicious numbers to your carrier or a consumer protection agency—many platforms collect these reports to curb scams. And remember, a legitimate organization will rarely pressure you for immediate payment or urgent action. When in doubt, hang up and verify through official channels.
