Expert Opinion

Early this morning, a brief ring from +1‑649‑585‑0294 left no voicemail. Recent alerts from major carriers warn that calls originating in the 649 area code often drop after one or two rings, a trick used to slip international premium‑rate charges onto unsuspecting U.S. phones. Because the call ended so quickly, it’s unlikely a legitimate business reached out. If you see a similar pattern, let your carrier know, add the number to a call‑blocking app, and never call back unless you can verify the source. Monitoring your bill for unexpected fees and reporting the number to the FCC can also curb future attempts.
