Still receiving this automated call advertising home security system deals. Obviously the "opt-out" option is b.s. Caller ID still listing name as "Out of Area" while number is showing as "1-281-901-8075" like before. I live near the Harris/Montgomery Co. TX line which is served by 281 area code (among others.) Not sure why a legitimate call from 281 area code would be "out of area." As other posters have said, could be of origination overseas.

I just got the same call. Tried to call it and got "the number or code you have dialed is incorrect". Pretty creative these folks are getting!

Thanks for this info. I will block/blacklist this number using the a.ndroid app Call Control by www.everycall.us
Worth every penny.

Didn't answer this one because it was "Number Only" on the CID, and I've gotten the spoofed 281 area code before &, like KC, suspected it was from another overseas scam.
On the country calling code list, I see that 28* is currently unassigned and reserved for country expansion.(Texas maybe? Heh)
Perhaps the fraudsters/Do Not Call violators may have found a way to take advantage of that?

Automated call advertising "free" home security system installation. Dial 1 at end of call to speak with a representative (yeah, right!) or 9 to be put on their company's supposed Do Not Call list. Caller ID name says "Out of Area" and number identified as "1-281-901-8075". Our CID did not report two "1s" before the area code like KC, above. Did not try calling number back as original poster did.

there might be a reason for that. we live in the 281 area, but that number came to our CID as "112819018075" and the "11" in front may mean 011, which is an overseas code. therefore, someone is using a US area code from outside the US. that spells trouble to me.

I called this number back. The recording said that the number or code that was dialed was not a working number... Funny, since I called the number back immediately after I was called. I wish these people who hide their identity would get an electrical jolt when they call. That would make me happy, happy, happy...
