800-941-3849

This is a Verizon Wireless Debt Collection caller giving me an advance call that I will be receiving a cell phone bill in the mail for a cell phone that's inactive.

This is not a call from Verizon or a Verizon Collection Agency!!! My daughter received a call from a local number that left her a voice mail to call this 800 #. When she called the # they did identify themselves as Verizon Wireless and asked her to make a payment on her bill or they were going to cut her service off. I called Verizon and they said this is a scam. Someone trying to get your credit card info. Don't fall victim to these calls. My daughter new this was a scam because she is on her dads account and she knew the bill had already been paid for the month.

tis number call my home home 5-6 time a day

They called from a local number and left a message that sounded like a spliced recording of the words based on the tone of voice shifting.

9-13-2012    I have been receiving this same call from this number a couple of times a day. It always comes
in from a Tameast number (Tampa) but always a different number.  It leaves a message for me (my name)
and asks me to call this toll free number but never a name or who is calling.  I did have a problem with
Verizon wireless recently and paid the reduced bill this week so hopefully these calls will stop.  These above
messages were a great help.  Thanks to this website.

I had the same thing happen to me.  I only called Verizon after I received a bill in the mail for the closed account.  I called Verizon, the number listed on the Verizon Wireless website, talked to a rep, gave her the old account number and was transfered to make the final payment.  I've been getting a ton of very suspicious calls lately which is why I called Verizon directly.  When this number first called me, it came up on my caller ID as a local number, not an 800 number which is what raised a red flag for me.

Thank you for letting me know that after just 3 days of cancelling my account with VERIZON they have some scam bill Collector calling me.
They used this number 260-440-7748 to make the call on my caller ID and then asked me by way of digital recording to call back this number (800) 941-3849

Gotta love BS and give me a chance to pay you off before you start hounding me. I will tell everyone I know to drop Verizon Wireless as I have and switch to another provider and currently out of all my friends I got to switch to this service that will total at least 50 people.  Not much in the grand scheme of things but hey.. screw you.

I have been recieving this call from my new number and I need these calls to stop as this is a private line.  I want help in the recession of these calls and wish for aid.  This call if for a Patricia Hilton.  This number is now under the name Robinson.

***COLLECTIONS SCAM***
I've been getting calls from several local numbers with an automated system leaving a message requesting (by name) that I call this 800 number; called the number and spoke with a man who said he was, "Verizon Wireless, conducting a courtesy call for an owed debt".  

The tool I spoke to on the phone insisted I owed $70 (this was on an account that is no longer in my name).

Although I was certain this was a scam attempt, I informed him of the ownership change and that I've not been responsible for the account in months.  His response was of the "nuh uh" caliber, repeatedly insisting that I could hurt my credit if I refused to pay.

I verified with a VERIZON WIRELESS REPRESENTATIVE TO CONFIRM I HAD NO DEBT OWED TO THEM AND WAS INFORMED THEY'VE BEEN MADE AWARE OF THIS SCAM.  

VERIZON CONDUCTS THEIR OWN COLLECTIONS - DO NOT GIVE THESE SCUMBAGS ANY INFORMATION...but maybe cuss them out a little bit.

Every day someone from India calls my work number and then asks me what number they called me from!!!!!!  When I give them my work number, they say they don't have that number!!  Then, they call again the next day.
These calls come in on our main office number, so I can't answer the calls.

I received the IP voice message to call back this 800 number.  Call ID shows 571-316-2075

I cancelled my Verizon hotspot yesterday due to them not having unlimited data plans and constantly getting charged ten dollars for each gig of data over the plan.  Too expensive and not worth it.  They tried to sell me on a phone plan instead and now this morning I am getting calls from this 818 exchange number that left a message to call 800-941-3849, when I called they put me in the phone tree for forever and never identified their company but did ask for the number I was calling about.  I figured out it was Verizon due googling the number.. .  I cannot believe they put me in collections so fast.  I don't even have a final bill from Verizon yet that includes my early cancellation penalty.  I will wait for the letter and go from there.

I've been receiving calls from this number every day.  Since they don't identify what the nature of the call is or the company name I just delete it.  I got fed up receiving calls every day and decided to check it out.  It's annoying....

Need to add something else: I called the numbers back (both the 800 number and the regular 407 number) and immediately got a recording asking to verify if it was me (this by name).

Have received several calls from "Lakeview Funeral Home", 316-869-0613, in Wichita, KS. When I answered it told me to press 1 for my message(s) or to call 800-941-3849, which I find here to belong to some collection agency supposedly acting on behalf of Verizon Wireless.  I have contacted the funeral home via their official website.  I do not know if they are affiliated with the collection agency or if the collection agency has hijacked their phone number.  That, in itself, tells me this company is unethical, in the least.

I've been victim of their endless calling to. I don't understand how this works for them. If they are phising they need to talk to you to get your information. Why are they there, yet remain silent. Are they merely seeking proof that they've called a working number that they c an then sell to other phone scammers.

yeap , I totally agree that  they are a complate joke. I called them to try to settle my debt with verizon wireless. And the were un willing to help me at all. So I hung up on them.

Calls several times per day, claims to be Verizon Wireless. Caller ID is shown as "Out of Area".
Ok, so you're lying about your caller ID. Also, if you're with Verizon, then wouldn't you have my frigging cell phone number you idiot?!?! !@(#)*!@# OFF!

For the past two days and now going on the 3rd.  I have been receiving calls several times a day on my home phone.  Today I received a call again with another phone number.  This is 3rd phone number they have used.  This time they left the message that everyone here has been receiving.  I do owe on a disconnected acct but I spoke with a Rep yesterday to understand my bill and sent it off today.  Thanks to this website I have some idea what is going on.  I have blocked every number so far. Caller ID has shown a local number each time.  This is ridiculous!
