Expert Opinion

In neighborhoods across the Midwest last month, reports surfaced about unsolicited calls from this number pushing IRS relief programs or falling silent after pickup. These patterns scream scam tactics, where fraudsters dangle fake tax aid to phish for personal details. The silent treatment often serves as a robocall probe to verify active lines for later hits. Hang up immediately on anything fishy—no legit agency cold-calls for relief. Block the number via your carrier or apps like Nomorobo, and report to the FTC at ftc.gov/complaint to help curb these nuisances. Stay vigilant; sharing details only fuels the fire.

The caller didn’t provide any useful info and seemed to be just checking a box. Not impressed.
