Summary — +14696392147
Expert Opinion
Heads up: these calls from +14696392147 are almost certainly a scam. Callers repeatedly claim you owe money for nonexistent criminal fraud or payday loans and pressure you to contact an "attorney" or pay a fee. They use vague legal jargon, change names (Judy Baylor, Melissa Harvey, Colin & Associates) and often leave voicemail with urgent warnings. Never share personal info or make payments to unknown parties. Hang up, block the number, and report it to the FTC or your phone carrier. If you’re truly worried about debt, contact the creditor directly using verified contact details, not the number that called you.
