Turns out this number is linked to political outreach, delivering automated messages about upcoming elections. Callers often use pre‑recorded scripts to push a candidate or issue, which can feel intrusive but isn’t illegal in most states. If you’re not interested, let the call go to voicemail and then block the number through your carrier or phone settings. Registering with the national Do‑Not‑Call list won’t stop these political robocalls, but it can reduce other nuisance spam. Keep an eye on the caller ID and avoid sharing personal info during any unsolicited pitch.
That strategem of 'listening' to avoid calbacks is intriging, how does it actualy work?
When I answered the call, an automated voice began speaking about voting for a political candidate; I listened to avoid another call, and I decided to share this information so others would be aware of the caller's intentions.
