Scam Calls from Area Code 386

Area code 386, assigned to a corridor of northeastern Florida communities including Port Orange, Ormond Beach, Palm Coast, and Jacksonville, has generated 1,083 complaints across 416 numbers since February 2026, with activity still ongoing as of June 2026. That volume places it 24th among the 44 Florida area codes tracked, a mid-tier position that nonetheless reflects a consistent and broad-based campaign rather than a single isolated number driving the count.

Debt-reduction calls lead the complaint categories with 129 reports, just ahead of dropped calls or no-message contacts at 126 and impersonation calls at 121. Medical and prescription solicitations add another 89 complaints, and lottery or sweepstakes pitches account for 20 more. The spread across these categories indicates multiple simultaneous operations using 386 numbers, not a single scam type cycling through a shared dialer.

The single most-complained-about number, 386-793-4823, has drawn 38 debt-reduction complaints, making it the clear focal point of that category. Behind it, 386-306-2662 has accumulated 23 complaints and 386-968-6792 eleven, with neither carrying a categorized scam type from available data. The lottery and sweepstakes category is concentrated in 386-327-7045, which accounts for 16 of the category's 20 total complaints, suggesting one number is driving nearly the entire prize-scam load for this code.

FCC records show 9 formal filings, with 96 prerecorded-call incidents logged against only 17 live-agent contacts and 1 abandoned call. That ratio confirms robocall infrastructure is doing most of the work, consistent with the high dropped-call complaint count, which often reflects autodialer probing or failed connection attempts at scale. Complaints have also been reported from Georgia and California, meaning calls originating from or spoofing 386 numbers are reaching well beyond Florida's northeastern corridor.

The combination of ongoing activity, a heavily prerecorded delivery method, and category diversity across debt, impersonation, medical, and prize solicitations points to 386 functioning as a shared spoofing resource for several distinct operations. The debt-reduction and impersonation categories running nearly neck-and-neck at the top of the complaint stack is a pairing that often signals coordinated financial-fraud pipelines, where impersonation calls are used to qualify targets before handing them to a debt or loan pitch.
