1) The call was from a scammer, trying to entice you to send money
2) If you return the call, it will cost you money! (Keep reading)
3) The 876 (Island of Jamaica) prefix is VERY frequently used by scammers, and WILL cost you money if you call it back and don't have free international calling.
4) Some folks think all 8xx area codes are "toll free". That is NOT true! Scroll down for more 8xx numbers that will be charged at long distance rates.
Some area codes are not toll-free numbers and calls from any other area code are billed at international long distance rates.
Some curious people return the call and will immediately be charged $19.95 for an international call fee and an additional $9-per-minute charge, according to a news release from the BBB.
Here is a list of some area codes that will be billed as international calls:
242 Bahamas
