Expert Opinion

Recent patterns reveal a surge of calls from 713‑489‑7846 that sound like prison collect‑call requests. Callers typically claim an inmate needs a prepaid account and pressure you for a credit‑card number. Never share payment info unless you’ve verified the inmate’s identity directly with the correctional facility. Use your carrier’s block feature or a third‑party call‑filtering app to silence the number. Report repeated attempts to the FTC and the Federal Communications Commission. If you suspect a legitimate inmate is trying to reach you, contact the jail’s official phone‑service provider—often Global Tel Link—to confirm the call’s authenticity.
