What to Do When You Get a Suspicious Call
Why Scam Calls Are Hard to Stop
Scammers can fake legitimate phone numbers through caller ID spoofing, use robocalls, and change tactics to avoid detection. Caller ID alone cannot prove who is calling.
Step 1
Do Not Answer Unknown Numbers
Let unfamiliar calls go to voicemail. Legitimate callers will leave a message. Scammers rarely do.
Step 2
Do Not Press Any Buttons
Never press 1 to speak to someone or 2 to be removed from a list. This confirms your number is active and leads to more scam calls.
Step 3
Look Up the Number
Search the phone number online to see if others have reported it as a scam. Sites like 800notes.com and WhoCallsMe can help.
Step 4
Verify Through Official Channels
If the caller claims to be from your bank, government agency, or utility company, hang up and call the official number from their website.
Step 5
Report the Scam Call
Report scam calls to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov and the FCC at fcc.gov/complaints. This helps authorities track and stop scammers.
