Yesterday morning, a surge of calls from +13308367919 left many recipients hanging up or hearing vague claims about computer viruses. These calls typically spoof a friendly name like Amy Murphy and use accented voices to sound legitimate. The safest move is to never share personal or financial details, even if the caller claims to represent Microsoft or another tech firm. Add the number to your phone’s block list, register it on the Do Not Call list, and report the incident to the FTC or FCC. Consider using third‑party call‑blocking apps and stay skeptical of unsolicited tech‑support offers.
Apparently, they claim to be contacting me regarding my computor, but I dont actualy own one
Calls were received for two consecutive days, with Caller ID showing Amy Murphy, but the calls resulted in dead air, and calling back yielded a message stating the number was not in service.
Apparently, someone claiming to be from Quicken Loans called me, and after researching online, i contacted the FBI and FTC, they were helpfull, but the FCC dont investigate federal crimes, so if we all report to the correct agencys, maybe we can slow down the scammers...

After placing my phone number on the DNC list on January 23rd, I noticed a decrease in blocked calls, with only 5 calls from familiar numbers, leading me to question the effectiveness of the list and wonder how my number has been shared.
The notion of a free list is intriguing, but its contents and validity are questionable.
The whole experience was utterly ridiculous!
The issue is not with criminals, but with the 'please call me' list, which is a free guide of active phone numbers, if you're on the list, you will recieve calls, if you're not on the list, you wont be called, thats how it work
The Do Not Call Registry isn't a foolproof solution, as scammers using spoofed numbers from outside the US tend to disregard it, while legitimate businesses respect the list.
