"Hello?" Aaron picked up his communicator to see who it was.
Though he gave only a few people, answering the communicator wouldn't cost him any loss. Someone might have dialled the number wrongly.
Unlike on Earth, where there are many ways to scam people over the phone, here, there was no such facility. Scammers exist here too, but it would be while buying items at stalls, where many items are either on the verge of breaking or the sellers are using some illusions to make them appear even more than they usually are.
Only when they used would they find out they were scammed, but the issue was that established sellers with permanent shops would not engage in such scams, as that could hurt their business. They would be doing scamming differently.
The point is, people get scammed by using physical means, not through digital means. The world has not developed like that.
So, Aaron was not worried about any scammers calling him and answered the call.
