Caller ID was 'Out of Area'. When I answered a call from this number this morning the person on the other end said "Hi, this is Josh from customer services. Can you hear me OK?". There was a news report recently that identified this as a new scam where they record you saying 'yes' and use that to sign you up for services, purchase items, etc. Because of that report, I answered 'no' and hung up. I realize that these numbers are always spoofed and reporting one number doesn't do a whole lot of good, but hopefully it will save at least one person from being scammed. I normally don't answer any calls that I do not recognize, but since I am currently job hunting an my number is posted on numerous job searcher sites, I'm afraid to miss a possible job opportunity.
