Yeah, the DIAL CODE just helps us to know it is an American number because some threads created in this site have phone numbers from countries other than American, and foreign countries have a different DIAL CODE than America’s DIAL CODE 1. I have made a note for myself to use now “+1 (Area Code) ##-####” so that I remember if and when I create a thread to post a scammer’s phone number. For quite some time now I only get SPOOFED scam phone calls, so of course I do not create a thread and post them.
