This is in the US. Has anyone else seen this lately? A non fax (facsimile) phone number is getting repeated calls from a "fax" machine. If you answer the phone, the fax just makes noise. If you call the "fax" number back you are greeted with a message that if you want to stop getting these fax calls, go to their website and click on "Do not Fax". (I did not go to the website)
Our phone system guy says we cannot block the number. We are a commercial entity with many phone numbers in our environment so it is not just one phone number affected (like a personal cell phone).
Multiple people have reported the number on a reverse phone look up as Spam/Scam.
As a security person I can see multiple avenues for this leading to a scam or infection point.
Just wondering if this is a new tactic or an old one that has been revived.
