I just got a call from 856-437-1499 on my cell phone at about 3:30 PM today. I usually don't answer calls where the number isn't familiar, but this time I THOUGHT I knew the number (and it also said "NJ" below it), so I answered. A woman was on the line-- she spoke perfect English (no accent) and asked if she could speak to either "male first name" or "female first name" "**last name**". One of the names was MY name, but the other was NOT and I don't know who that person is is (its not anyone I would know or a family member), so right away I got suspicious and regretting that I'd picked up the call, realizing it wasn't who I thought it was.
I did not respond with any positive answer to either of the names she mentioned, and instead asked what this was about. She said that it was a "personal matter" so could not tell me unless I was one of the people she'd named. At that point I thought this call sounds like a phishing scam and just hung up. She did not call back.
It was the 2 name thing that got me suspicious, because if the call was for me, they wouldn't have mentioned the other first name. I don't know what they were calling for, and really don't care. If its THAT important they will send me a letter in the mail.
