About the 816-298 exchange

816-298 is an exchange (the first six digits of a phone number) in area code 816, which covers Missouri. NANPA, which runs the North American Numbering Plan, assigned it to Lumen (Level 3) for the Kansas City, MO rate center. Numbers from this carrier are usually VoIP / internet phone lines.

People keep their number when they move or switch carrier, so this is where the number was first assigned, not where the caller is today. Local time for 816-298 numbers is usually Central time. Scammers can also fake (spoof) any number, so a call that shows a 816-298 number may not come from Lumen (Level 3) at all.
