Purported to be calling for one of our utility companies. Web search showed the number to be a VoIP boiler room in Collingswood, NJ, a small bedroom town between Cherry Hill and Camden. Caller ID is "Philadelpha PA" even though the area code is NJ. You could hear a loud boiler room in the background and the caller seemed young and inexperienced. There is a remote possibility that this caller is not a scammer but he never got past asking me if I was the one responsible for paying the bill. We pay automatically online so there is no possibility of an overdue balance. I excused myself politely and hung up.
