Is (248) 278-0890 a scam?

We can't verify that. areacode.fyi shows unverified, community-submitted reports plus area-code facts — not a fraud determination. Caller ID can be spoofed, and an area code only shows where a number is registered — not where the caller is or who they are. Judge a call by what it asks for, not the number it shows.

Where is (248) 278-0890 from?

The 248 area code is registered to Pontiac, Michigan. That is where the number is registered, not necessarily where the caller is.
