رأي الخبراء
Ever wonder why calls from a number linked to TBS Productions keep popping up on your phone? The pattern in user reports points to a persistent telemarketing operation that masquerades as a charitable pull for local police or fire agencies. Even though the pitch sounds official, the organization routinely keeps the bulk of donations and pressures victims for credit‑card info, a classic red flag of a scam. Block the number, add it to your Do‑Not‑Call list, and never share payment details with unsolicited callers. If you’ve already given money, contact your bank to dispute the charge and report the incident to the state attorney general or FTC.
