AI Summary
Based on 1 community report
This Meriden-based number appears to be making unusual social calls where the caller claims to be lonely and just wants to chat. The reported conversation involved asking basic personal details like age and marital status, though the caller reportedly didn't push for more sensitive information or make the recipient feel threatened.
While this might seem harmless, unsolicited calls from strangers seeking personal conversation are often used by scammers to build rapport and trust before attempting fraud. This technique, known as social engineering, starts with innocent-seeming chats to identify potential targets. The fact that they're cold-calling random numbers to find people to talk to is concerning behavior.
Even though this particular interaction remained polite, it's wise to be cautious about engaging with unknown callers who want personal information or extended conversation, regardless of how friendly they seem.

Didn't ask personal questions. Just wanted to know my age and if I was married. Whole conversation was strange but I wasn't uncomfortable and he let me go when I said I didn't want to talk anymore.
