There is another new phone scam making its way across Pennsylvania, this one seeking to record the victim’s voice saying the word “yes” and then using the recording to make online purchases. Officials in several counties report that people have been receiving calls and the voice asking, “Can you hear me now?” There could be other wording before the question.
Anyone receiving the call is advised to never respond to questions from anyone on the phone unless you know who you are talking to.
The scam calls in this case are using blocked or unfamiliar numbers, but could easily also be using ghost numbers that appear legitimate.
