How scammers pick who to call

Scam calls are not random. Most are aimed.

Lists by age and place

Lists can be filtered by age range, state, and homeowner status, which is why older adults get Medicare and warranty calls.

Why a caller knew your name

People-search profiles put your name next to your number, so the caller can open with it and sound legitimate.

Cutting the target off

Remove the profile and the next list built from it does not include you.
