Beware of the one‑ring missed calls coming from the 649 Caribbean area code. Those brief rings are a classic one‑ring scam that relies on curiosity to get you to call back a premium‑rate number, often routing through spoofed IDs that display Turks & Caicos Islands. The call usually hangs up instantly, leaving no voicemail. If you return the call, expect high charges and possible fraud attempts. Best practice: let the call go, block the number, and report it to your carrier or the FTC. Use a call‑blocking app and never trust a silent, single‑ring from unfamiliar overseas sources.
