Safety

Is a call from 386 a scam?

The 386 area around Daytona Beach sees heavy tourism and seasonal traffic, and scam calls here often pose as hotels, travel bookings, timeshares or 'prize' offers. Genuine 386 calls come from local businesses and residents. Because a familiar area code can be spoofed by anyone, don't assume a 386 call is trustworthy just because it looks local.

Red flags to watch for

  • Pressure to act right now, or threats of arrest, fines, or service being cut off.
  • Requests to pay with gift cards, wire transfer, crypto, or a payment app.
  • Asking for passwords, one-time codes, your SSN, or full card/bank numbers.
  • A robocall or recording, or a number that won’t let you call back.

When unsure, hang up and call the organization back on a number you look up yourself.
