"Called claiming to be Apria wanting to talk about my account. Immediately tried to gather identifying information to 'verify my account'. When I asked them to send me an official email and I would call them back they tried to give me this number again."
"This number calls me every morning at 7:00 am. Sometimes no message, sometimes partial robo recording about last attempt to call (funny, they keep calling) and will be closing account on auto warranty."
"I ignored it, left a voicemail saying i have been uncooperative and they will be alerting local authorities"
"Says they're from the Dept of Social Security and want a call back before I am arrested for fraud regarding my number."
"Want to give me a back brace for the back pain they believe I must have. When I told him I didn't have back pain and they started asking about my shoulders and arms. If it's not a scam it's a nuisance or insurance fraud."
"They asked 'Can you hear me okay' as soon as I said 'I can' they hung up. They are calling people wanting to record 'yes' so they can use it."
The 971 area code primarily serves the northwestern region of Oregon.
Area codes 503 and 971 work together as an overlay system in the same geographic region of northwestern Oregon. Area code 503 was one of the original North American area codes of 1947. Area code 971 was created as a concentrated overlay for most of the numbering plan area on July 1, 1999, with the previously exempted Clatsop and Tillamook counties added to the overlay on April 27, 2008. Ten-digit dialing became mandatory across northwest Oregon on October 1, 2000.
No, 971 is an authorized Oregon area code functioning as an overlay for the state northwestern region, including Portland and Salem. Criminals electronically project this local number onto caller IDs to deceive Pacific Northwest residents into picking up the phone.
Scammers target the greater Portland area with highly specific medical billing and mediation threats. An active scheme involves noisy call centers spoofing 971 numbers to impersonate Apria Healthcare billing department for immediate credit card payments, while a phantom firm named Global Mediation threatens to dispatch local authorities over imaginary civil complaints.
