Early this morning I received three consecutive calls from +2348068029735.
In each case when I tried to answer the call was immediately disconnected.
Is this some sort phishing scheme or other scam, or just an odd number?
TIA
Bob

No doubt! Sorry I missed the call. I could use the $1,500,000.

Thanks for the info, Todd. I should have thought to look that up myself.
I'll know next time.

That's only about CDN $500. :-/
