Got a call from 888-332-9444 claiming that our license had expired and

888 sites are scams --watch your wallet!


nonsense.

888 is a toll-free area code, along with 800, 877, 866, 855, 844 & 833.


Definitely. The displayed Caller ID information was "800 Service," which
is exactly what we see displayed when our local hospital calls to follow
up after procedure, by one of our doctors, and by one of our banks --
and I think all of those numbers are in fact 888 numbers.
