Toll-free scam warning

Toll-free numbers are not tied to a place: any business, call center or app can rent one, and caller ID can be spoofed to show one. Scammers often pose as banks, Amazon, Apple or the IRS from toll-free numbers. Hang up and call the company back on the number printed on your card or statement.

  3. If it is someone you met on a dating app, see reverse phone lookup for dating.

  5. Report scam calls at ReportFraud.ftc.gov and add your number to the National Do Not Call Registry.
