The 606 area code is heavily used for Social Security legal threats and fake job offers. Scammers promise easy money for wrapping your car with ads or threaten you with jail time to get your details.

"Left voicemail saying there have been changes to my student loans. Didn't say my name, clearly a recording with a "reference number." I don't have student loans. Total scam."
"Got an email indicating they were the GEEK Squad and the number listed. When I called they attempted to extract financial information and wanted access to my computer. I hung up. They call me 6 times after I hung up and I blocked them."
"It was a guy who said his name was Jarred & he was giving away vacations in Florida 2dys./3nts. He talked kinda low & fast and said he 'just needed to get some information verified with me first.' I said I wasn't interested and hung up."
"A man named Kevin has called several times saying he's calling representing a law firm that represents a payday loan place that is taking me to court over a presumed unpaid payday loan from over 10 years ago. Not only is he extremely rude, he threatens me and hangs up on me, then calls me back again..."
Area code 606 covers the eastern half of south-central and the eastern part of Kentucky. It runs along the entire length of the state's borders with Virginia and West Virginia. Most of its service area lies within the Kentucky region known as the Eastern Kentucky Coalfield.
In 1999, area code 859 was created from a split of the 606 area code. The northwestern portion of the old 606 territory, including Lexington and Northern Kentucky, was assigned to area code 859.
No, 606 is a legitimate Kentucky area code covering the eastern part of the state, including Ashland, Somerset, and Middlesborough. Fraudsters fake it to reach eastern Kentucky residents with calls that look homegrown rather than distant.
Appearing locally rooted is the spoofing advantage for 606. Social Security robocalls threatening to lock your number for criminal activity are the leading complaint here, with fake Geek Squad and Amazon impersonators demanding remote computer access or gift card payments for bogus subscription charges running a close second.
