Phishing Caller Blocks Me After Calling Back

A bbb report about a phishing scam that cost someone $0.0. Learn how to avoid falling victim.

Source: bbb | Scam Type: Phishing | Amount Lost: $0.0 | Date: April 09, 2026
The initial call came from (484) 218-6855 and when I checked the voicemail, they were asking for my wife, so I called the number back (8882419926). I asked for a supervisor and the gentleman who answered (Thomas) said they don't make outgoing calls. I tried several times to explain how this came about, but he repeated the same thing and eventually hung up and blocked my number.
