That's the way I still get calls every other day about "your car's service warranty" is expiring. Moreover, checking Spokeo shows me that most of the spam calls that look like they're local are spoofing actual, valid phone numbers. I wonder if, post-SWAT, some poor, unsuspecting widowed grandmother was questioned about why she made the 911 call?powerboatr wrote: ↑Sun Aug 28, 2022 3:23 pm WHOLLY cow ...
she said the caller reported a dead person shot several time sin her bathtub.
i bet the cops were really eager to bust in and see.
surely they can trace the point of the call and go after the fake reporters. thats some serious stuff
my telephone company yes landline told me the pause that the fcc created so we could do a star 69 call back is what allowed spoofers to enter a fake number as it goes through to dial.
