Area Code Report
Scam Calls from Area Code 210
Area code 210 covers San Antonio, Texas, and the 807 numbers drawing complaints out of this code have generated 1,876 total reports since February 2026, with activity still ongoing as of June. That volume places 210 at rank 11 out of 44 Texas area codes tracked, a position that puts it in the upper quarter of the state's most complained-about prefixes.
Medical and prescription scams lead all categories with 264 complaints, followed closely by 237 reports of dropped calls or calls with no message left, and 205 complaints categorized as impersonation of government agencies, businesses, or family members. Debt-reduction pitches — covering credit cards, mortgages, and student loans — account for another 45 complaints, while home improvement and cleaning solicitations add 36 more. Complaints have arrived from callers in Texas, Florida, and California, though the reported call locations cluster heavily within Texas itself: San Antonio, Houston, Fort Worth, Austin, and New Braunfels.
The single most-complained-about number in the code, 210-520-6400, has drawn 46 reports. Close behind it are 210-374-8073 with 37 complaints and 210-531-8722 with 32, none of the three carrying a categorized subject in the complaint data. Together those three numbers alone account for 115 complaints, roughly six percent of the area code's entire complaint load.
Among categorized numbers, 210-448-1971 and 210-390-7953 are both tagged to the government-and-business impersonation category, with 15 and 9 complaints respectively. The home improvement category surfaces through 210-858-6170 at 15 complaints, while 210-622-8845 is responsible for 13 dropped-call or no-message reports. FCC records show 169 live-agent calls against 14 prerecorded and 10 abandoned, indicating that human-staffed dialing operations dominate the activity here rather than automated blasting.
The combination of a high live-agent ratio, a medical-and-prescription category leading all others, and a cluster of high-volume uncategorized numbers suggests organized, staffed calling operations using 210 numbers — whether spoofed or native to the San Antonio exchange — to run campaigns that are actively evolving. The ongoing recency stamp and the spread of receiver locations into Florida and California indicate these numbers are not confined to a local audience, which broadens the potential exposure considerably.
