Description
I received a call on my cell phone from a number listed as "Hatboro, PA" - my town. I answered thinking it might be from the elementary school. The caller said, "Hi this is Joe from Helping Hands. Can you hear me okay?" As soon as I said "Yes," they hung up. I suspect they may be trying to use it to get credit or purchase authorization for something. I haven't lost money yet but will be verifying all credit card transaction and credit reports.
