The caller with the number +19992228808 appears to be a scammer attempting to gather information from businesses about their potential relocation plans. The calls are often made with a foreign accent, claiming to be from various state business development offices, which raises suspicions. The callers' evasiveness when asked for verification or a callback number further supports the conclusion that these calls are phishing attempts. The scammers' goal is unclear, but it may be related to cramming, where they try to include extra charges in the victim's phone bill. To avoid falling prey to these scams, it's essential to be cautious and hang up on suspicious calls.
