Is area code 907 a scam?

Area code 907 is a legitimate Alaska area code, but scammers can spoof any number — including 907. Here's how to tell a real 907 call from a scam and how to stop spam calls.

Area code 907 is associated with Alaska. The area code on caller ID only tells you where a number is registered — not who is calling or whether they are trustworthy. Because caller ID can be spoofed, the safest move is to look up the exact number, not just the area code.

Why did I get a call from 907?

• Neighbor spoofing — scammers fake a local Alaska number so a familiar 907 shows on your screen and you're more likely to answer. The real caller can be anywhere.
• Robocalls and telemarketing cycling through 907 numbers.
• A real local caller — a Anchorage-area business, service, or someone returning your call.
• Debt collectors or surveys using a local-presence number.

How to tell a real 907 call from a scam

Judge the call by what it asks for, not the number. Warning signs: urgency or threats ("act now or you'll be arrested"); requests for gift cards, wire transfers, or cryptocurrency; callers claiming to be the IRS, SSA, your bank, or "tech support"; and anyone asking you to confirm a one-time code, password, or full SSN. A legitimate organization will let you hang up and call back on an official number.

How to stop spam calls from 907

Don't answer unknown 907 numbers — let them go to voicemail. Block persistent numbers, turn on your carrier's free spam filtering, register at donotcall.gov, and report unwanted calls to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov.
