Number overview
050-3117-3636 is an IP phone number (the 050 prefix). It is reported as an automated-voice survey targeting businesses about subsidy programs.
Reported behavior
- Uses names such as "Research Center" and runs an automated-voice survey about business subsidies
- Asks businesses to input information such as their employment situation
- Answering the survey may lead to follow-up sales calls
A public agency does not normally collect business information via automated voice from an IP phone number. If anything feels off, hang up without responding.
How to handle this call
Don't engage with the automated survey - hang up. Genuine subsidy information is published on the official websites of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Small and Medium Enterprise Agency.
