The number seems to have been co-opted by another scammer, "government benefits for electricity".

Just got a call from 212-601-9582 & it showed New York on the caller ID. I answered the phone and the man said my name & wanted to know if that was me. Then he kept talking and I stopped answering until he hung up.

Same experience here. The caller ID said New York NY, so I answered, "Hello, this is Linda" in case it was a business call. The caller disconnected.
