Don't call back phone numbers that ring once and hang up, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has warned. People throughout the U.S. have been receiving "One Ring" or "Wangiri" robocalls in bursts, according to officials. Typically, officials have said this is how the scam unfolds: The robocaller will dial a number before hanging up after one to two rings. Hiya, the app company that helps people identify whether they're receiving a spam call, also warned of the dangers of picking up the "Wangiri" calls in a news release on Friday. Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Worcester, Massachusetts; Roanoke, Virginia; and Dallas, Texas, have also seen high numbers of spam calls, according to Hiya.
