Don’t warn, contact the carriers and make them aware to stop it in their core. Then trace the routes back to those earning off the terminating BTN.

411 is a service that if you use it they will charge you for it,
That’s not he scam that is being spoken about, you are paying Bc you called 411 which is ‘directory’

I didn't call back

I never call back unidentified numbers anyway. If it’s important they’ll call again or leave a voicemail!!!

Ummm...
