Having a phone number leaves you open to scam calls. To report these calls you can go to the following website and let them know about the call.

On this site you can report if the caller asked for money, gave a name and when they called. Not sure what the full end result of calls can be but I feel it is my drop in the bucket to help combat these calls.

Some scams that I have received:

• Social Security Number has been suspend
  • The government would not call to suspend your SSN.
  • You should never give your personal information to a random call
• Police association requesting money
• You’ve won a prize but have to pay to collect
• Large sum of money but you need to pay some fees to receive it
