When my daughter answered, the caller claimed to be looking for her stepmom—my wife—though she’s never used that number, and she’d only had it a few weeks. It appears to be a Facebook‑friend scam that pulls names from profiles, so we’ll set those accounts to private.
Creepy Call from Unknown Relatives?
Summary — +12623230556
Expert Opinion
Scammers often scrape social media like Facebook to target 'friends' or relatives, using mismatched numbers to fish for info. This call to your daughter about her stepmom screams classic identity probe, especially with the new number detail. Block it immediately and report to the FTC at don.gov. Enable privacy settings on profiles to lock down connections—make accounts private, limit friend lists, and avoid listing family ties publicly. If they call back, hang up without engaging; never confirm details. These tactics exploit trust networks, but vigilance keeps data safe. Consider a reverse lookup app for future unknowns.
