Scam Caller with +16617480242 - Expert Analysis

Most tellows users have reported the number +16617480242 as harassment, calling several times and leaving a voice mail message. Users who picked up the call refer to the number as untrustworthy. The reasons for the call vary. The caller either claims to drop off documents or a delivery that has been scheduled. Other users report that the press 1 method is used to pay bills that have not been paid yet or to talk to an agent. By pressing 1, you may be directed to a premium rate service call, which will lead to high phone bills. Either way, the caller does not identify himself and causes lots of confusion in the tellows community. The phone number was most likely spoofed or used for scam purposes. We suggest to block unwanted calls and not pressing any buttons on the phone.
