Scary US Treasury call—how to protect yourself?
Summary — +16108440378
Expert Opinion
Ever wonder why a robotic voice claiming to be the U.S. Treasury is ringing your phone? That tone is a classic hallmark of a scam robocall that leverages fear of arrest to force a quick callback. These calls never come from an official government line; the number is usually spoofed and the script is generic. If you receive one, hang up immediately, don’t return the call, and block the number through your carrier or a third‑party app. Report the incident to the FTC’s complaint portal and inform your phone provider so they can flag the source. Stay skeptical and keep your personal data locked down.

Apparently, this entity is targeting individuals with names falling within the J-K range, which I find quite amusing. If the government were truly seeking to contact someone, they would likely do so in person, serving a summons or taking more drastic measures. It's highly unlikely they'd resort to phone calls, and I suspect many of us would end up sharing a jail cell if that were the case.
