Repeatedly, the same number shows up on workplace phones, claiming to represent a law firm or debt collector. The pattern points to a coordinated spam operation that exploits vague legal language to pressure employees. Avoid engaging; instead, let the call go to voicemail and verify any alleged debt in writing before responding. Use built‑in phone blockers or third‑party apps, and add the number to the FTC’s Do Not Call Registry. Report persistent harassment to your state’s consumer protection agency and keep a log of call times. Remember, legitimate creditors must provide clear proof and cannot threaten arrest over the phone.
