Beware of a New Phone Scam That Could Cost You Money
I received a call from a foreign country two nights in a row. The first call came after 11 pm. The next night I received a call from the same number at about midnight. When you are sound asleep and get woken up by the phone at that hour, your heart starts to race in fear something happened to a family member. The phone number had a 1 in front of the rest of the run on numbers. Luckily, I didn’t answer the phone because I don’t know anyone outside of the US who would call me. I blocked the number after receiving the second call.
There’s a new scam where people are receiving calls from a Lithuanian number. This new scam could cost you a lot of money on your next phone bill. Basically, that’s the scam! You pick up the phone and you get charged. If you get a call from +370 668 75396 don’t answer or call it back. Block the number to avoid more calls and prevent yourself from being woken up after midnight!
Don’t fall for “urgent” callback requests either. Scammers have been known to impersonate people. Don’t be a part of another annoying phone scam. -Maryann Morgan – Joel & Maryann in the Morning
