I live in the NY area (Long Island), and have a business line on my phone, so I get dozens of scam calls per day.
Most are spoofed. Many, from local Long Island exchanges.
All the spoofed calls just reuse existing numbers. When I first started getting them, I called a couple, until I figured it out. I usually got some poor, confused schlub.
I’ve gotten some calls, myself, and have been said poor, confused schlub.
Bonus points when they spoof your own number?
Hasn't happened to me, but a friend of mine, said it happened to him.
