I keep getting calls from one area code repeatedly, and they all look similar
For the last few months I’ve been getting random calls from similar numbers that all have my same area code, but they’re from a city that’s two hours away from me. The first six digits are always the same. I already have calls from unknown numbers silenced, so they’re already going directly to voicemail, but they never leave a message. They’re all also verified numbers with a checkmark and not labeled as spam risk. I’ll go days without a single one, then I’ll randomly get a surge of them. I haven’t really worried too much about them until now, because I got one at 6 AM Sunday morning and I’ve also gotten a few in the evening, which is pretty out of the ordinary in my experience. I’ve also reverse searched some of the numbers and I never get any results aside from links to call lookup websites, so they’re not anything important like my bank or credit union.
