Phone scams are a constant, but mostly you can tell when the call is a scam. Answer a mechanical voice who identifies himself as Jason and someone’s going to try to sell you solar power.
Or someone trying to give you a lower rate on your credit cards but won’t tell you what bank he represents. They’re endless.
But the first tip that it’s a scam in the Dallas area is someone calling with a spoofed 469 phone number from Grand Prairie.
Now, the Dallas Police Department has become aware of a phone call scam involving individuals claiming to be Dallas Police Officers and utilizing caller ID spoofing.
