Is a 306 call spam?
The 306 area code is a legitimate code for all of Saskatchewan — it isn't a scam on its own. But because scammers can spoof caller ID to display any area code, an unexpected 306 call isn't guaranteed to be local or genuine. When in doubt, let it go to voicemail and call back using a number you trust.
