Scam Calls from Area Code 667

Area code 667, Maryland's overlay for the Baltimore metro, has generated 606 complaints across 264 distinct numbers since February 2026, with activity recorded as recently as June 2026 and still ongoing. The complaints trace primarily to Baltimore, Pasadena, Annapolis, and Cockeysville in Maryland, though receivers in Florida and Virginia have also logged reports, and one cluster of reported locations reaches as far as Tucson, Arizona — a geographic spread that suggests numbers in this code are not confining their reach to local targets.

The single largest complaint category is dropped calls or no message, with 136 complaints, a pattern consistent with autodialer probing that abandons calls when no live pickup is detected. Close behind it, debt-reduction pitches — covering credit cards, mortgages, and student loans — account for 106 complaints, making 667 notably debt-solicitation-heavy for its overall volume tier. Impersonation calls, covering callers posing as government agencies, businesses, or family members, add another 67 complaints. Computer and technical support scams and charity solicitations each register 4 complaints.

The FCC has five records tied to this code, and the call-mode breakdown skews sharply toward prerecorded delivery — 46 prerecorded contacts against 17 live calls — confirming that robocall infrastructure is the primary delivery mechanism here rather than staffed boiler-room operations.

Among individual numbers, 667-331-4969 leads with 18 complaints, followed by 667-890-1928 at 15 (dropped calls) and 667-244-8863 at 10. Numbers 667-464-4831 and 667-435-2981 both carry 7 and 6 complaints respectively and are specifically tagged to impersonation calls. The concentration of complaints across eight numbers — collectively accounting for 76 complaints — points to a small core of high-activity lines driving a disproportionate share of the volume.

At rank 262 out of 357 area codes by total complaints, 667 sits in the lower half of the national picture, but its sibling rank of 31 out of 43 among comparable Maryland-tied codes tells a tighter story. The debt-reduction category's prominence alongside sustained robocall delivery and an impersonation thread running through multiple top numbers suggests this code is being used for layered financial-targeting campaigns, where dropped-call probing identifies live lines that are then funneled into debt pitches or impersonation scripts.
