When you get a call from an unknown number, it's best to stay cautious. Let the caller speak first, and if they ask for personal info, payment, or urgent action, hang up and verify independently. Never share passwords, Social Security numbers, or banking details over the phone unless you initiated the call to a trusted organization. Consider blocking the number if it keeps calling, and report persistent unwanted calls to your carrier or the FTC. A quick web search of the number can also reveal if others have flagged it as a scam.
I got a call from this number claiming to be from the IRS, but it was obviously a scam trying to get my personal info. They hung up when I started asking questions. Total waste of time.
