About 672 Area Code:
Area code 672 is one of the newer area codes in Canada, serving the westernmost province of British Columbia. Vancouver, the largest city within the 672 area code, is renowned for its stunning natural beauty, nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Coastal Mountain Range. The city is a melting pot of cultures.
The economy is equally diverse, encompassing industries such as technology, film and television production, tourism, and natural resources. The tech sector, in particular, has seen substantial growth, with Vancouver emerging as a hub for startups and established companies alike, often dubbed as "Silicon Valley North." Beyond the urban centers, the 672 area code region encompasses picturesque communities that offer a slower pace of life compared to the bustling city. Places like Whistler, a world-renowned ski resort town, and the serene Fraser Valley, known for its vineyards and agricultural heritage, offer a stark contrast to Vancouver’s urban vibrancy.

Asian woman, asking for a friend, or associate that she met at a party. You tell them its not you, and they like to meet new people. This will usually expand to personal questions, and they then want too meet. All are self-employed fashion or jewelry. Love traveling. I do not know why a stranger would want to meet a person they never met within 1-2 days of talking to them.
Caller saying she is traveling to my state in September and wants to know if I still live at (my address). I ask who she is. She says , "Susie, didn't you save my work number?" I ask where she worked. Never received an answer. Call is likely a phishing attempt, preying on the elderly (me).
This caller poses as someone you know... "want to get coffee?" "Got plans tonight?".... when you ask who this is... Jonathon, didnt you ave my number? you dont remenber me form the gala? ... anything to to keep the conversation going. Wahts the end game?... they arte after money, gift cards, bitcoin.... its a burner phone
I get soliciting text from this number very often, they want to know if I want to adopt a cat then they want to know if I want to go out to eat and then they want to know if I’m interested in buying a car but it’s always a scam
I don’t know this number. It was a random text that says “ Thank you for always being by my side, you are the best!” I didn’t respond. And reported it as junk. I’ve been getting lots of random texts like this from various numbers over the last month.
received an email to call this number. It is a Canadian area code in British Columbia. The email asserts they live at an address in Chicago, IL. It is suspected this is not a real person. Name given was william abens.
received a text claiming my USPS package can't be delivered because of a wrong address. Supply to link for me to click on. I believe this is a scam or phishing for your information.
The caller sent an unsolicited text asking a question that had no meaning or relevance to me, and which was vague without providing relevance or identication as to who they were and/or represented.
So by this number not having any information attached to it-I find that to be proof enough for a scam. Thx anyway. I’ll be cancelling after the 7 days.
Wrong number but now discussing their business might be AI or scam. Friendly seductive chat for two or three days and then request information then business opportunities
Came across in messages with this message......."I'm not familiar with this No. Please share your name." In my opinion this has scam written all over it!
information that they would give back when I ask questions would change and also looked like it had been looked up, copied and pasted .
She said she was broken down on the road. Right after I told her she has the wrong number I got a potential spam call.
Phising attempt. “My favorite place is wherever you are.” Anyone that you would say that to would have your number programmed into their phone.
I believe this number belongs to a scam artist. They have started a relationship and sounded like they really liked me, then started wanting me to send them money to purchase different types of dividends. They said it was a sure thing. Yeah, it looked as though I was making lots of money but when I went to get it, They wanted more money to take it out. Then when I didn't pay to get the money out it said it had expired and disappeared. By
