Area code 615

Just received a scam phone call from 615-566-9519.

It's a Nashville area code but don't answer. It's a scamer.

lives there so I know it to be true.

However, these days with Google and Vonage, you can get any area code you choose and you don't even have to live in that area. Scammers from India buy up American phone numbers and try to scam people into handing over their $$'s for debts they don't even own!

This # is from the Charlotte, Concord, Gastonia area. It has a 100% negative rating.

I've had so many of these. Never answer any of them.

I see the 6 times a day call from "UNKNOWN" has stopped calling me. It sucks because you can't block an "unknown" number. Just keep dismissing it.

Be glad when Nov 9th is here.
