999-999-9999

I think we will be getting tons of unwanted calls due to political campaigning which are exempt from the Do Not Call list. I actually picked up a call - I usually screen all calls, but someone else was sleeping - They had the gall to say they were professional solicitors/fund raisers... my reply, "I don't do any phone solicitations." And hung up. Charities are also exempt from the Do Not Call list. Go figure the two things you want most to be on that list aren't. I think other things are also exempt which to me makes being on the Do Not Call list almost pointless. Get an answering machine, or if you don't recognized the number just don't answer it. Really folks it is that simple. But thanks for all the humor... really cheating partners, stupid-stisions.

I just got 6 text messages on my cell phone (Telus) from 9999999999 .. Subject call: Hudson's Bay Company Alert, Mastercard Locked.  Please call + 1 9174600132.

I don't have a Hudson's Bay Credit Card

Listen you fools, There's ten thousand different potential ways you could be getting that number on your phone, it COULD be skype. Or it could also be bill collectors. OR it could also be that little scam they had for awhile where you would answer the call and be billed at an astronomical rate for the few minutes they can keep you on the life. It could also be the cheating husband, im not going to lie. But the simple fact of a 999-9999 number being on someone's phone does not instantly prove thier guilt. So can everyone just smarten up a little and use SOME of your brains. Stop over-reacting and think twice before you make rash accusations.

I called Verizon about this same problem.
I received two phones yesterday morning, and both times the caller hung up. He called again around 1:30, identified himself as Tim, said that he was calling from a restricted number because he's married, and then asked if I would do a bachelor party......(and no I'm not a dancer or anything like that...just your usual secretary).
I called Verizon, and was informed that 999-999-9999 will show up on your Verizon bill any time it is a restricted number, including if the caller dials *67 first. They told me that there is no way for them to see the number, it shows up the same on their listing. Their recommendation was to change my number.

I 've been getting calls from this number for a week now, and finally picked it up today, and it is from "The Cash Store" seeing if I need a payday loan. When I asked what is this? Who are you? How does this work? - he said "I'm sorry, we cannot do it in you state after all"

why am I getting these 999-999-9999 calls. Who are they from?

got a text message on telus at 8:30am(atlantic time) on march 12 of 2012, the message was to check out some web site, deleted message and never looked at site

I have received four calls from this number. The first three were from a woman who said she had been talking to my wife [ diffrent name for wife each time ] about something. I interupted her at this point and told her that she must have the wrong number as I have never been married and hang up. The last time I beleive it was the same woman but as soon as she reconized my voice she apolligized saying she had the wrong number and disconnected.

I received a call at about 2am, when I answered it, it started out "You have a collect call from...This is...." then it was cut off. The "This is..." part was a females voice. A min. later I received a text message from 999-999-9999 but at the top of the msg was the phone # 408-634-0694 and stated "If you have seen or have located or contacted Sierra Lamar, please call 911 immediately, Please be prepared to provide youer exact location........."
What the heck is this crap all about?????

Sierra Lamar, 15 years of age, set out for Sobrato High School in Morgan Hill, California at 6:00 a.m. Friday morning and never arrived at the school. She resides in an unincorporated area of Morgan Hill, so the call may have come from the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office rather than coming from the Morgan Hill Police Department. Telephone number 408-634-0694 is a San Martin, California telephone number. The San Martin Sheriff's Department location would be the closest to Morgan Hill.

use call trap it will block the number for you

they are not secretive cheating calls. i looked this up cause my mother is having the same problem with her phone and i wanted to find out what this was but she has comcast so it cannot only be a verizon thing.

I receive a call from 999-999-9999 and when I finally answered they ask for my husband I started asking all kind of question so the person on the phone got kind of nervous and told me that they were verifying that was a working phone number and then they hang up...be careful I think they may be info stealing people I talk to few people and the times they talked to someone when they call with this number who ever they talk to gave them a different name and company..I was told they were a number verifying company....they have used VERIZON... CSC.. SUN LOAN COMPANY ....US ONLINE PHARMACY...ICS...UFC...FIRST NATIONAL...and the list goes on.....I just got another call and a guy name scott told me he was calling from CCS CAPITAL...who knows BIG SCAM!!!!!

I don't have Verizon and just this pass week I have gotten this call and I won't answer it.

my buddy works at Gergia Pacific and when he calls me the numner is 999-999-9999.

These calls are from a unlisted number or a private number, that person had tried to block their number again...making it into 999-999-9999. This call into my home on my cell at 1:00 a.m. I called Verizon and this was told to me..also the call was taken off of my telephone bill.

This is a generic number that scammers use when the scramble their number.  It will usually come up RESTRICTED or UNAVAILABLE on your phone and then be 9999999999 on your statement.  The ones I have been getting are Jamaica scammers trying to get money out of a little old lady I know.  We have now been receiving death threats from these numbers and I wish someone would figure out who they are and stop them!

why would you even answer a call with this #????? Just saying.

Got a call also.  Have answering machine, turned ringers off but have caller ID. Too bad all these weird callers keep us from using our phone.  Real calls are answered quickly.  999-999-9999 Name unavailable.  Heard a rumor that people who get these are marked for death.  Hope that is not true.

unwanted call - took up 50 of my minutes  DO NOT CALL AGAIN
