Imagine fielding a robotic voice that says it’s a collect call from a Montgomery County jail you don’t know. That scenario shows how inmate‑call services are often abused to harvest phone numbers. The safest move is to let the call go to voicemail and never press any keys that could confirm a connection. Use your carrier’s block feature or a third‑party call‑blocking app, then follow the prompts to add your number to the service’s blacklist (often an 800‑PayTel line). Finally, report the nuisance to the FTC and, if you suspect a real inmate, contact the jail directly to confirm.
A computer-generated voice claimed the call was a collect call, but the origin is unknown.
