Received call from 299-3333 with the area code 818 hidden. I do not live in that area code. No answer when I picked it up. Checked that number with my area code and no reports on 800 notes. On the answering machine the 818 area code was revealed. Blocked. I don't know how they can block the area code on the hand set. Scum
Same as the others, dumped the call automatically. When I called back (USING *67 to mask caller-id), I got "This number is not in service or disconnected" by Verizon Wireless. So, another scammer bought a line appearance or is just spoofing on outgoing... Until we can backtrace these calls, this will continue.
I support a $100 bounty on the identity of these guys, followed by a private security removal team... after all it cannot just be in the movies! (growth industry).
