No, 679 is a valid area code for Detroit, Michigan, and its surrounding suburbs like Dearborn and Taylor. It serves as an overlay for the 313 code to meet the demand for new phone lines in the metro area. Scammers often use this newer prefix to bypass call filters that have already blacklisted more common Detroit numbers.
This overlay inherits the specific fraud patterns of the Detroit area, including "DTE Energy" scams where callers demand immediate payment to avoid a gas shutoff. Residents also report a significant number of "Auto Warranty" robocalls that mention specific Ford or GM models common to the region to lure victims into buying worthless service plans. These calls often use a pre-recorded voice named "Monica" who claims it is your "final notice" before your file is closed.
