Watch out for repeated calls from +16318565357 – they’re most likely a Home Advisor‑related scam that pretends to need contractors or service providers. The callers swap names (Mike, John, Jay) and claim they’re recruiting or buying leads, but they never give concrete job details and often request background checks. Hang up immediately, avoid returning the call, and block the number on your device. Verify any legitimate Home Advisor outreach through the official website or your existing account before sharing information. Report the number to your carrier and to the FTC’s complaint portal to help curb the scam. Stay alert and protect your business from fake voicemail leads.
This number calls multiple times a day, often without ringing, and goes straight to voicemail, which is clearly spam.
