I received calls such as this number and other 704-981 branches for expanding my career with grad school. They claim they want to pair me in a financial aid program when, like John Doe, they probably want to scam me. I tried blocking the numbers, but more lately keep calling. Any suggestions?
Just keep blocking, and never answer any calls from this or any other unknown number. It's not safe these days. Answer only numbers you recognize. If someone legitimate needs to reach you from an unknown number, they will leave a message. If that message makes sense, call back. If it doesn't DON'T call back: if it's a scammer, that will place your number on a "live" list and you'll continue to get calls.
Got a call from this #. They wanted to know if I was on private health insurance or medicare. But they really didn't want to know that - it was just a stupid question - because they didn't ask any more. What they really want to do is send you a package of vitamins, etc. I told them no thanks and hung up.
