Recorded Phone Scam is Back

By an edhat reader

Just got a call from 310-245-7842 ( caller ID is Cell Phone, CA), it is a man’s voice saying he is from a reverse mortgage company, and he asks if one can hear him. DO NOT SAY “Yes.” You will be recorded, and it is my understanding the nefarious company will use it against you for fraudulent purposes. Heard about it on NPR, so it must be true.
