Here is how this scam works. Your very own phone company sells lists of phone numbers to anyone who will pay for them. Then they use a robot dialer to dial the numbers. They never talk because they want you to call back. This is why they dial in a fake area code that is the same as yours. At lease the smarter ones have started doing this. This way they get a name associated with the number that builds a list of confirmed names & phone numbers. This is something that they can now sell to other scammers as a list. If you talk with the scammer on a call back they will say they can send you something like redemption coupons worth hundreds of dollars for just $8. You think this is a good deal. NOT. If they wanted to give you 200 dollars worth of coupons they could also give you another $8 in shipping as well. What then happens is you get some clippings in your mail box from throw away junk mail pamphlets and think that this was just a small scam. NOT. Now your mailing address, phone number, credit card info is a real hit list that they sell on the dark web to the bigger scammers. Soon there are two of you and the other one is on a spending spree!  The trail by now is very muddled with little to trace.  Never ever call back!!!!!

.... blah blah.... loose tinfoil hat..... nitwit alert.....

Really now? Let's see... My phone doesn't ring off the hook... Therefore you are full of male bovine manure!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again:

Expecting a scammer to observe the Do Not Call list is like expecting a bank robber to stop for a red light.

If we registered users could attach signatures to our posts, I'd make that mine.
