Ever wonder why that mysterious number keeps popping up? The pattern here points to a classic scam operation, often masquerading as tax authorities to intimidate victims. Callers typically use high‑pressure tactics and claim legal action to coerce personal data or payments. If you receive a call from this source, do not engage, hang up immediately, and verify any claims through official channels. Block the number on your device and report it to your telecom provider or consumer protection agency. Stay skeptical of unsolicited legal threats and keep your personal information locked down.
