What people said

Short answer: (369) 216-6437 has been reported 429 times to the FTC Do Not Call Registry and 6 times to the FCC since July 2026. Most reports describe calls or voicemails about a loan or debt relief the person never applied for. We have not confirmed who operates this number, and caller ID can be faked, so treat these as reports, not proof.

What people describe

  • A loan you never applied for. Many people say a caller using the name "April" or "Leo" left a voicemail saying they were "approved" or "finally approved" for a loan, often around $42,000.
  • A callback number, not the caller. Several people report that the calls come from many different numbers, but the voicemail always asks them to call back (369) 216-6437. Blocking one number does not stop the next call.
  • Repeated calls. People describe 4 to 6 calls a day, including late at night.
  • Debt relief pitches. In the FTC records, 332 of the 429 complaints were filed under debt reduction and 11 under impersonation.

Where the reports come from

The most complaints came from Massachusetts (63), New Jersey (57), Arizona (39), Virginia (38) and California (28). The first complaint was logged in July 2026 and the most recent FCC complaint on August 13, 2026. The 369 area code is a real overlay for the 707 region of Northern California, added in February 2023, but scam callers can use any area code.

Why this pattern is a warning sign

Real lenders do not approve you for a loan you never applied for. The FTC warns that advance-fee loan scams promise approval and then ask for a fee first, called "processing," "insurance" or "application" fees. Under the Telemarketing Sales Rule it is illegal for a company calling you to promise a loan and ask you to pay before you get it. The FTC's advice is simple: "Don't pay for a promise."

What to do if this number contacted you

  • Do not call (369) 216-6437 back, and do not press any number in the message.
  • Never give your Social Security number, bank login or card details to someone who called you about a loan.
  • Never pay a fee, buy a gift card or send crypto to "release" a loan.
  • If you already shared details or paid, call your bank right away, then report it at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. If you are 60 or older, the National Elder Fraud Hotline is free at 1-833-372-8311.
  • Check your credit reports for loans you did not open, and consider a free credit freeze.

Complaint counts come from the FTC's public Do Not Call complaint data and FCC consumer complaints, along with third-party call report databases where they are shown. Counts can differ between sources because each records complaints on its own schedule. Readers add their own experiences through comments, Facebook, Instagram and Reddit. Reports describe what people experienced and are not by themselves proof of wrongdoing. Caller ID can be faked, so a reported number may not belong to the person who called. If this number is yours and these reports are wrong, you can ask us to review this page.
