Expert Opinion
Never give out your personal info to an unexpected caller. Numbers like +18883743889 are frequently used by fraudulent debt collector scams that claim you owe money or face legal action. Hang up immediately, avoid confirming any details, and block the number on your phone. Verify any legitimate debt through official letters or direct contact with the creditor, not via unsolicited calls. Report the incident to the FTC and your state’s consumer protection agency. Keep a log of calls and consider adding the number to a do‑not‑call registry to help stop calls from recurring.

Generally dont pick up such calls, they had almost stopped completly, until this one showed up after three weeks, didnt left a message...BE CAREFUL...they might be a legit collector, but you havent got no proof, so your taking a unnessary risk, alot of these scam calls are just PHISHING scams to get you to provide your personel info
