Person has called my cell phone four times wanting me to accept some sort of relay call - I do not know anyone in this area and I refused the call but they kept calling back. I tried calling the number and it is someone speaking in a foreign language.
This is a display phone number for an IP Relay service. Anyone who has your phone number COULD call you thru IP Relay. I used to work as a relay operator. Operators do NOT know who you are or who is calling you. IP Relay is intended for people who are deaf or hard of hearing to call people who aren't. It's supposed to be a good thing. However it's exploited by teenagers who anonymously prank call their friends, enemies, etc. Lots of obscene phone calls are made this way.
It's also exploited by scammers from foreign countries who call small businesses and people selling things thru Craigslist, newspaper classifieds, etc. The scammer tries to get your email address asks for the rest of your personal info. They try to pass a fake check, money order or Western Union payment for larger than the amount of the item and have send them the "over payment" money. Be very skeptical and if it seems at all funny DON'T COMPLY! Businesses are supposed to take relay calls because to not do so would be discrimination, but they certainly don't have to comply!
If you received unwanted relay calls at home or on your cell phone please be nice to the operator & just HANG UP! You may want to ask the operator for the company's customer service phone number and call to see what they can do about blocking annoying IP Relay calls.
