Any time you receive phone call from 800 number don’t answer it. Google that number 99.9 precent of the time it’s scam. Funny how they can track our every move with cell phone but can catch scammers. I get at least 4 scam calls day. I don’t even answer the phone unless I know who calling. It they don’t leave message it’s scam anyway. Sad, but that world we live in today online electronic age. You can’t block them either, they have hundreds of 800 numbers, the computer just called using another number.
