Scam Calls from Area Code 931

Area code 931 covers a stretch of Tennessee including Clarksville, Crossville, Franklin, Knoxville, and Celina, and its 570 complaints across 264 numbers place it toward the lower end of overall volume — rank 271 of 358 area codes tracked. Within its state peer group, however, it sits at rank 37 of 50, making it a mid-tier concern regionally rather than a standout nationally.

The two heaviest complaint categories are debt-reduction solicitations at 92 complaints and medical and prescription calls at 89, together accounting for roughly one-third of all reported activity. Impersonation calls — pitches masquerading as government agencies, businesses, or personal contacts — contributed another 30 complaints, and lottery and sweepstakes pitches added 16 more. Prerecorded delivery dominates the FCC record, with 16 prerecorded contacts logged against just one live-agent contact, consistent with the bulk, automated character of debt and medical robocall campaigns.

Among the most-complained numbers, 931-313-0200-55 drew 10 complaints specifically tied to debt-reduction pitches, while 931-239-3123 and 931-731-8543-5 each reached 10 and 5 complaints respectively in the medical and prescriptions category. 931-225-6655 added 5 more debt-reduction complaints. Two numbers — 931-202-8955 and 931-202-8959, with 10 and 6 complaints — share a near-sequential pattern in the 931-202 exchange and carry no categorized subject, though their combined 16 complaints alone mark them as active.

Complaints originated not only from Tennessee but also from New York and Illinois, indicating that 931 numbers are being deployed against out-of-state recipients and are not simply a local nuisance. Activity spans from February 2026 through at least June 2026 with no sign of tapering. The concentration of debt and medical pitches alongside a cluster of high-complaint numbers in a single exchange suggests coordinated spoofing or a shared dialing infrastructure, and the ongoing recency means the threat footprint is still expanding.
