000-000-0000

Interesting ... CID indicated "1-000-000-0000", and I was ready to block ... but the answering machine turned ON, so I thought I'd listen ... it was my local internet provider, responding to a trouble call I gave them the previous night, and giving me an update on network availability!  I picked up the phone, and the CSR gave all the appropriate responses, so there was no scam involved.

I asked why they did not provide an appropriate CID, but the internet CSR had no idea how to do that.

So, that means I cannot block "1-000-000-0000", because it might be my internet provider.

Unfortunate.

They want you to call that number back and then that way they have access to your info and charge up your bill. I saw a news report on this, where you will get calls from a strange number and then when you call it back they charge your account hundreds even thousands. Do no talk to them, do not answer them, I keep declining the call everytime.  Eventually they stop and then yes a few weeks later start again.  But I don't care, anytime I get a call from a strange number it is ignored.  At night I put my phone on silent because this way if they decided to wake me up in the middle of the night in hopes I will be more compliant in my sleep they will still get a voicemail.

The national "Do Not Call" list is worthless.  
I put this number (000-000-0000) on my "block number" list that my phone service provides me and we don't get their calls anymore.  I have 9 numbers on there from solicitors and enjoy a "call-free" evening.  :)
Much easier than getting upset.  

Just got the call today and a blank voicemail. Didn't answer it because the number looks fishy.

000-000-0000 keeps calling my cell #; no message left.  

I get the 0000000000 call all the time I answer it every time and all I hear is a click like someone is hanging up I have been told by a couple reliable people now that it is some sort of law enforcement or government tracking your phone to see where it is located I switched phone company's and still got it then I went back to my old company and switched phone numbers and still get it I have no clue what it is but I did ask my next door neighbor which is a detective and all he could say was I can't discuss that with you so it kinda makes me think that it is true maybe it is the government or law enforcement

THIS IS RID I KEEP GETTING THIS CALL!!!!

hey man this is true. theres alot of stuff going on right now in the govenrment. in all honesty i would say get rid of ur phone but u probably need it. theres a huge bank in north africa and the us has a lot of money invested in it. its in lome. and whatever deal the government has going with the bank there has to do with our telephone numbers being sent to the scammers and hackers and theives of lome who then put any profit in that bank

Use Name and M Lists where <> and Message are. ~3 per day per IP for map. I'm through with this project. Good luck guys.

HSBC is a TERRIBLE Corporation; BRITISH.  They were a prime player in the sub-prime mortgage meltdown SCAM.  This was as much deliberate and evil as these phone scammers.  Good luck 'catching' them.  The Justice Department (Feds) recently 'settled' with them over the mortgage SCAM for simply $1.9 million in FINES; a mere fraction of the BILLIONS they STOLE in that scam, and NOBODY even went to prison.  This is so-called 'justice.'  Meanwhile, millions are homeless, thanks to them.

This number is obviously SPOOFED, and is likely tied to just one or two major call centers in INDIA or PAKISTAN that have been FED American's PERSONAL information including NAMES, ADDRESSES, PHONE NUMBERS, SS#s, DOBs and more.  Its amazing any of us have ANYTHING left in our bank accounts as these thieves are trying DAILY to steal every last nickel and dime we have.

Suspect these calls are related to similar calls/scams from the following numbers:
904-280-3051
661-748-0240
210-526-6628
312-614-1419
404-610-3761  and, of course, the classic
"OUT-OF-AREA" with no number displayed, similar to the all zeros.
And these are just a FEW of the numbers who have called in the last few WEEKS.
All of these numbers (and many more) have been running all kinds of SCAMS, including:
 - 'Free' cruises/vacations (for just a small tax/fee, of course, on your CREDIT CARD) ((PHISHING)
 - Debt Consolidation (IDENTITY THEFT)
-  Interest Reduction (CREDIT CARD PHISHING)
-  Phony Charities - Veterans, Cancer (Breast, Children's,& others) Animals, Women, Children, etc.  (CREDIT CARD PHISHING)
-  Medic Alert bracelets/Medical Claims (IDENTITY THEFT/ INSURANCE COVERAGE THEFT)
-  Job Openings (IDENTITY THEFT; info for future scamming)
-  Home Security Systems (CREDIT CARD PHISHING)
-  Health Care Policies (PHONY.  IDENTITY THEFT and CREDIT CARD PHISHING)
-  Debt Collection (CREDIT and DEBIT CARD PHISHING)
-  "Fixing" your computer/removing a virus (INFORMATION THEFT/IDENTITY THEFT/FINANCIAL THEFT)
and I'm sure there is MORE.

The bottom line is DO NOT ANSWER NUMBERS YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE NOR ENGAGE WITH UNKNOWN or ABUSIVE or THREATENING CALLERS.  Let ALL these calls go to answering machine or voicemail, OR, if you are confident they are spam, pick up/hang up to break the call and 'confuse' the robodialers.  Purchase or download a CALL BLOCKING system if you can, and BLOCK as many numbers as possible.  Do NOT give out your private cell numbers to companies or anyone without a real, valid, important need to know.

Most of our spam calls occur on our longtime, published and often given out landline.  Our THREE PRIVATE, unpublished cells RARELY get spam *AND* our unpublished business line almost never gets spam.  I *REFUSE* to give VERIZON, our landline carrier, a cell number as an 'alternate' "in case we cannot reach you on your home phone."  I KNOW THEY SELL OUR PHONE NUMBERS and OTHER INFORMATION.

Case in point: I had the number/frequency of these calls tamped down to 2-3 weekly; sometimes less than 6 monthly.  THEN we went on vacation using CHOICE HOTELS, INC.  Had to give our Name, Address and HOME PHONE NUMBER each time we checked in - which was about 10 different times on this trip.  BEFORE WE EVEN GOT BACK HOME, the SPAM CALLS had started up again and were soon up to 6 DAILY.  I have spent the last FIVE WEEKS doing the 'hang up method' to these calls, and blocking numbers (all of the above) earnestly.

Hopes this helps, people.  STAY SAFE.  The FEWER of us who FALL for these SCAMS, the less they will attempt them.

Got a call at 4 am with a freaky robot sounding lady saying my credit card account had been frozen? I don't even have one ha! 😒

unwanted calls that hang up

I've received 2 calls from this number-about 15 apart. I did not nor will I answer the calls from this number. I just want the person or company to stop calling my number.

I answered once but no one spoke and then call is ended. Calls continue through out the day of course they go unanswered.

Folks, do not answer these calls.  Verison says it's a scam and the caller gets money when you answer the call.  They're also doing it with 800, 866, 855 numbers.

Frankie   the same exact thing happened to me with him talking about my computer being messed up. I hung up on him and he called back three times.Each time i hit the F U button. He gave up for three days now im gettingthe calls again.  P.s  i never got these calls until i got comcast. Within a week the calls started to come.

I had this happen then they wanted me to send $300 on a green dot card for irs fees to send the money. Wth?  These people are relentless. They were saying that i got a $7000 grant but it was from a 732 area code. They still call...

That is cool. I never knew you could do that. Can you explain how to please?
