    Added to the RecentScam database 6 weeks ago. Most recent report 5 weeks ago. Persistent activity spanning 8 days suggests an ongoing campaign rather than a single-event report.

Who is calling me from this number?

Numbers that appear in threat-intelligence and consumer-complaint data are commonly used for robocalls, telemarketing, or fraud. We recommend letting unknown numbers go to voicemail and not calling back.

Is it safe to call this number back?

Generally no. Returning a call to a flagged number can connect you to a premium-rate line or confirm your number is active, leading to more contact. If you must verify a claim, use the organisation's official number instead.

How do I block this number?

On iPhone: open Recent Calls, tap the (i) next to the number, then 'Block this Caller'. On Android: open the Phone app, press and hold the number, and choose 'Block'. You can also ask your carrier to block it at the network level.

Where should I report an unwanted or scam call?

Report unwanted calls to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov and the FCC at consumercomplaints.fcc.gov. If you lost money, also file with the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center at ic3.gov.
