307 Area Code Scam Report
Area Code 307
The 307 area code covers Area Code 307 and ranks #250 out of all U.S. area codes for scam call complaints. The FTC has logged 11,847 complaints from 4,904 unique phone numbers in the 307 prefix. The FCC independently recorded another 1,373 complaints, meaning people are reporting these numbers to multiple federal agencies.
But here is what makes 307 distinctive: 27.4% of victims are Wyoming residents, and 32% of victims have a 307 number themselves. This is a textbook neighbor spoofing pattern. Scammers fake a 307 caller ID because people in the Wyoming area are far more likely to answer a call that looks like it is coming from their own neighborhood. The number on your screen is fabricated.

Why Scammers Spoof 307 Numbers
Caller ID spoofing is trivially easy with modern VoIP technology. Scammers operating from anywhere in the world can make your phone display any number they choose. They pick 307 because it is a large, recognizable Wyoming area code. When your phone rings and shows a 307 number, your instinct is that it might be a local business, a doctor's office, or someone you know. That instinct is exactly what scammers exploit.
The data confirms this. Of all FTC complaints about 307 numbers:
- 27.4% of victims are in Wyoming, confirming local targeting
- 32% of victims have a 307 number themselves, meaning scammers match the victim's own area code
- The remaining 73% of complaints come from all 50 states, showing these numbers also appear in broader campaigns
What 307 Scam Calls Are About
Not all 307 scam calls run the same playbook. The FTC categorizes complaints by subject, and the automation rate (robocall percentage) reveals which scams are run by machines versus live callers.
Reducing your debt (credit cards, mortgage, student loans) scams have the highest automation rate at 79.8%, meaning 8 out of 10 calls are robots. Computer & technical support follows at 59.5%. If your phone rings from a 307 number and you hear a recorded message about debt, tech support, or a government agency, it is almost certainly spoofed.

What to Do If You Get a Call from a 307 Number
If you did not answer
Do not call back. Scammers spoof real people's numbers, so calling back may reach an innocent person. Instead, check the number on ScamVerify™ to see if it has been reported. If there is no voicemail, it was almost certainly a robocall.
If you answered
Hang up immediately if you hear a recorded message. If a live person asks for personal information, payment, or claims to be from the IRS, Social Security, or your bank, do not engage. Legitimate agencies do not cold-call demanding immediate payment. Check the number below, then report it to the FTC at donotcall.gov.
Remember: the number is not real
The 307 number that appeared on your screen was almost certainly spoofed. The actual caller could be anywhere. This is why blocking individual numbers has limited value. Scammers generate thousands of spoofed numbers and discard them after a few calls.

The Wyoming Scam Call Cluster
307 does not exist in isolation. The entire Wyoming metro shares five area codes, and scammers rotate through all of them. Combined, these codes account for 11,847 FTC complaints, making DFW one of the most spoofed metro areas in the country.
Fort Worth's 817 has the highest in-state targeting rate at 84%, while 469 sits at 27.4%. This suggests 817 is used almost exclusively for neighbor spoofing, while 469 sees slightly more use in broader nationwide campaigns.
