Charlotte Phone Number Lookup (704/980)
The 704 area code and overlay 980 cover the Charlotte metro in southwestern North Carolina, including Charlotte, Concord, Gastonia, Huntersville, and Kannapolis. Callers from 704 have claimed recipients won a vehicle from an old sweepstakes entry to extract fees and have impersonated a utility company's energy management program to switch power suppliers without permission. The 980 code has seen threats from fake pre-trial division imposters and charity solicitors who refuse to send written verification of donations. Victim reports for both Charlotte-area codes are available in our 704 phone number lookup and the 980 area code lookup.
Raleigh, Durham & Cary (919/984)
Numbers with 919 and the overlay 984 cover the Research Triangle, including Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Chapel Hill, and Apex.
