I am trying to find the owner of a pay phone line(858)638-1738. I am referenced to Pub Comm of Indiana, but the line is located in San Diego. The line is not in use-the payphone was removed years ago. We are doing a construction project and the phone company will not remove the cable whic carries the line without permission from the owner. Of course, they will not tell us who pays the bill, and will not call them to ask...

Steve,
I need your help! I found another girl's phone number in my boyfriend's cell phone. He has already confessed to cheating on me with this girl. He told me that it was one time thing and that he told her he couldnt see anymore when she called him again on his cell phone. My boyfriend works out of town in West Virginia and I believe he is using his roommates cellphone to make calls to her. He knows I can check his cellphone account so I believe he has told her to use his roommates phone to call him and he uses it to call her. Can you help find out if this is true? I have already done a reverse lookup on her and know where she lives and name. I have both her cell number & home number. I also have his roommates cell phone number. How can we details of the incoming and outgoing calls from each phone. She had made a call to my boyfriends cell on Sept. 14 but he turned around and called her back on his friend's phone. So I need details from then to present. I need to know for once and for all. Please let me know if you can help me?



(304)768-5946
(304)553-8548
(606)776-5162

Here are the numbers I need incoming and outgoing calls traced!


Sincerely,

Hello,
trying to bust this chick who steals,lies, and scams my best friend out of lots of $$$. She is a witch.
Her games are endless too.. When she wants to make him believe she is really where she says, she somehow seems to always leave her phone at home.. She is too glued to it to do that. Today he received a call that read, "Pay Phone" and then this number 858-558-4505.
I honestly do not believe her. I am not sure if she uses That Spoof phone thing or not. When I call this number a loud noise comes on like a fax but? Please help me X terminate this beast.. Is this really a pay phone at a hospital? Or for once is she telling him the truth? Can anyone write in Pay Phone with a number?
thanks a bunch.. Help me.

Has anyone ever seen a payphone that once you put money in it would play a message or recording

Just got a call from this number around 6PM. Phones said "Texas"--recorded voice said it was a call from a jail--inmate's name (prerecorded) was given. I hung up. Looked it up here and it appears that this is one of those floating #s that shows up when payphones (from all over the US) or calling cards are used. Sorry, everyone--looks like there is no way to track down these callers.

Searcher i'm pretty sure that 212 is a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania number, but you would have to check that with another source.

i WANTED TO USE YOUR SERVICE TO ACTIVATE MY CELL PHONE WITH YOUR COMPANY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE PLEASE. i GET A CHECK EVERY WEEK AND i DO HAVE A JOB NOW!

Looking for the location of the phone with the number 212-777-9606. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

what number is collect calls

To "K" in England:

There are a couple of places in England where 911 can be the first three digits of a valid local number. If you just dialed 911 and waited, then after a few seconds the C.O. would timeout and give you the standard "Number you have dialled has not been recognized" message, the same as if you dial any other incomplete number.

Outside of those few places, 911 will just be a vacant code and go directly to "The number you have dialled has not been recognized."

Does anyone know of equipment that can announce a message to the called party before the payphone connects the call and vice versa? Basically when a person uses the payphone, we want the called party to hear a pre-recorded message. When a person is to call the payphone we want the calling party to hear the pre-recorded message.

Thanks

Try white page reverse look-up.
They do not give you the exact address, but they give you the map of where the payphone is located.
I don't know if the map is correct though...

I need to find a pay phone quick. I have to make an important phone call and my cell phone was turned off last night and just dont know how to find a pay phone near me.

How do I find the location of a pay phone by specific number?

My friend was house sitting and received a collect call from my sister from this number asking for the call to be paid for with a credit card. My sister had her ID stolden in a shelter in the Dallas area. I believe that they are stealing from the shelter on a regular basis and using the iformation to steal information from others. As they are coing acrossed many state lines I believe this is a Federal issue. Idenity theft is a crime. My sister, was coming here. She is now missing and I do not know where she is. She failed to get off the Bus this morning. I know she was in another state from Texas when I talked to her on Thursday morning early. I hope These people are stopped fast.

Chora...get in touch with the Dept. of Corrections to see what you need. In Fl. I needed to have a land line that can accept collect calls. The digital phone companies don't.I had to use AT&T.Have your brother inquire about it as well.Florida can't have prepaid phone plans until they're at work release and are able to have phone cards there. Hope this helps.

2149695489....this number is ILD COMM.It is a phone service provider mainly used for collect calls. My fiance is in work release in St. Pete and the pay phones there are set up with this company.Pay phones are set up with providers for collect calls differently. In Avon Park, he had a different proveider as well as when he was in Madison.The 727 area code is based out of Pinellas and Pasco counties in Florida. I hope this helps with some of the questions out there.

Hi my friend was talking to this woman who said she lived in kentucky and was going to send him money. so she calls him from a payphone to give him the 10-digit password, well he noticed the area code and looked it up. the number was 213-710-8109. when we looked it up it turned out to be in the los angeles,CA area. ok we could deal with that but when we tried to locate the area of the payphone, the website said it didnt exist. then we called the number and it would make soft static noises then make a clicking sound and go dead and after about 5 seconds the soft static noise would come back and it would start all over again

if there is anybody out there who could help me on any of these things you can write me at cadet_gbsn@yahoo.com

SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP

I'm having the same problem as you, 2-4 calls a day from 727-556-5772, no message left, no one says anything on other end of the line.

What is the purpose of knowing pay phone numbers? What is the purpose of this board?

Does anyone know if it is possible to get the numbers for Australia?
I know they are around but can't seem to find them myself. Please let me know.
HELP ME.
Thanks James

Just lurking to see what sort of calls people are getting - as pay phones become increasingly scarce, I could see a new-found interest in making calls for less-than-friendly purposes...

What about pay phone locations...? Has anyone tested a swath of data to determine listed pay phones as being now out of order due to lack of use?

I think the number 604 550 7000 is the number that shows up from a person who calls using a calling card

Dear vbb (and other people who feel concerned),

I had also a phone call from the number in topic this afternoon. When I came back to home in the evening, I received voice mail notification but no one talked in the message! It's like someone had hung up just after the "beep"... Very strange! I've googled this number and found your message on this site, like other similar messages, but I live in Belgium, too (Luxembourg province). Do you have some news?

Thanks for your help (to everyone).

I really need someone's help I need to locate a pay phone number and track it to the location of the phone. Can anyone help me?

He got taken away in hand-cuffs after kicking my door in and scaring the s**t out of my 9 yr. old. A few hrs. latter police officer said he was released into the custody of one of his friends. then, a couple hrs. latter I get a couple phone calls, 2 was restricted, one was a call and a voice mail from the phone # 214-969-5489, so I figured it waws a pay phone close by. Came on google to look it up, because I always got good results, but this time all I get is that this # is nation wide. How is that possible?

I am getting persistent prank calls from payphones and would like to get the locations of the phones. Does anyone know of a free service for locating payphones. I have the phone numbers from caller I.D.

Does anybody here know the ANAC for telstra or a toll free number i could call for the number?

I got a call from 818 989 9575. This seem to be not a valid number. Can somebody help me find if this is a public phone and where is it located?
Thanks for the help

Hi every body, i need to know the phone numbers for pay phones in sydney australia. does anyone here know any?

I would like to get on telemarketers list. If anyone can help please send email for my number to list.

Ray

thephonebooth@wowmail.com

I have opened up my telephone line to telemarketers and found out the following telemarketer CIDs are very persistent in the sense they keep calling back every hour:

1. (866) 683-7588
2. (847) 783-8952
3. (888) 244-0925
4. (866) 890-2693

Honestly, I don't mind to receiving calls from telemarketers. My motto is the more they call, the better merrier I become. If you call my number (678-601-0907), you will find out why. My Line will pick up even before you will hear the 1st ring and it will start telling you the ads. For telemarketers who use predictive dialing, they sure will get to my line before anyone responds to pick up the incoming calls. When telemarketers try to sell me something, I sell them the ads. This is how I get back to them and feel merrier every time. ;)

i'm looking for a list of pay phones in the st-lambert quebec area. thank u

To k:
Since 999 is not an emergency number in America, it can be a telephone prefix, so dialing it will either ring somebody's phone, or you will get a recording that the number is not in service if the Area Code you are in doesn't use that prefix.

How do you reverse charges on a pay phone? I know it sounds silly but i would like to know.

Allso, allthough its a little of the topic, does anyone know what happens if you dial 911 in england and if you dial 999 in america?

Found this info looking up a number that had called me. I noticed it was on here listed as a pay phone. When I looked it up, it said residence. I have no idea who it could be, I've never been to CA.

Is there any way to trace where the call came from?

Hey I received a call from this payphone#. I have a female stalking me. She left a message stating that I need to remove the no trespassing signs from my front and back doors. I live in East Texas and the payphone number is from the Arlington Texas area. Does anybody know how to get a physical address for a payphone? She also threatened to harm me and my children in the same message. Yeah you guessed it the police can't do anything about it because the call was from a payphone. Help please!

Telemarketer That Defrauded Missourians Through Robocalls Has Assets Frozen

Attorney General Jay Nixon on Thursday (Nov. 29,2007) obtained a court order freezing the assets of a San Francisco company that gave false information to Missourians in telemarketing calls selling credit card consolidation and credit counseling services. The order, signed by St. Louis City Circuit Judge John Garvey, was issued against Telelytics and its officer Scott Kaplan. Kaplan and Scott Olson, CEO of defendant Generations Direct, have been ordered to travel to St. Louis to give depositions regarding the false information.

Nixon previously obtained temporary restraining orders against Telelytics, along with Generations Direct and Vitelity Communications and their CEOs, in April and October. The April order was entered as a result of the defendants making telemarketing calls to Missourians on the No Call list, and the October order was due to allegations that the defendants were making fraudulent statements in those calls while attempting to make a sale.

Telelytics was making one million robocalls a week across the United States at one time, according to a deposition statement from Kaplan. According to Nixon, the defendants used automated calls to contact Missouri consumers and then told those consumers, among other things, that they had been approved to consolidate their credit cards down to as low as 1.5 percent interest; that the consumers had already been approved by a "certified non-profit agency"; that Debt Solutions was "dedicated to helping folks regain their financial freedom"; and that the consumer would be transferred to a "certified credit counselor right away." Consumers were told to call a specific person, "Karyn McCarthy," at an 800 number to receive more information.

Nixon says none of those statements made in the robocalls were true. Consumers who called back were eventually directed to representatives of a separate company who would try to sell debt consolidation and other services to them. "It was important to go to court while our lawsuit against these defendants is still pending and get an order freezing their assets to make sure Missouri consumers are protected," Nixon said.

According to Thursday's order, all assets and funds owned by the defendant Telelytics are frozen. Additionally, defendants Kaplan and Olson are ordered to travel to St. Louis at their own expense so that their depositions can be retaken in the case, and they also are ordered to reimburse the state for travel expenses incurred in taking the defendants' previous depositions. The depositions of Kaplan and Olson are to serve as a sworn accounting of the company's assets, including who invested in Telelytics, in what amount, the location of those funds and the uses to which the funds were put.

Trying to see if there is anyway I can get the location on a pay phone that has called my house over and over. The number is 719-634-9516. Thank you

Looking for a very remote pay phone to call. Any suggestions?

hi, i just found this site, and i was wondering if anyone would know how to track a number that just shows up as "P" on the caller id....whoever it is calling me calls every few minutes and when i answer all i hear is a weird breathing noise, and then i hang up.....if i don't answer, they call right back...i've tried calling the police but all they said was there is nothing that they can do about it because there is no way of tracking a payphone that doesn't show a number on the caller id..

i yes sen you a messages but i folget to put the number 8474900275

i recived number a call from this pay phone on barrington illinos i like to know were this pay phone is located

Hi, I'm writing this because since 09-5-07 until now 11- 28-07 I'm getting all these long list of weird calls, here I'm giving the tel.No :09-05-07 12:13 PM, +442088135519; 09-11-07 513-5313690; 09-17-07 10:09AM,+442088872068; 09-28-07 4:51PM, +442073630345; 10-11-07 7:39PM,

Now the police is working in this case ( the special cyber police dpt. in the city I'm living). Hope this can help to all those others who are suffering the same "Harassment& Nightmare". Hope these people burn in hell.

my daughter called me collect from a chevron gas station phone booth...the operator asked me for my visa number, expiration date AND pin code. because my daughter was in dire straits, i gave it to her in order to speak with my daughter. the called cost 40.50 for one minute. i closed my visa account.

My babydaddy calls me from a payphone in Kansas City Mo a lot that comes up as 214 969 5489. Has anyone received or made calls from a payphone that uses this # in the Kansas City area that could tell me the street location?

The number is 1-215-424-9706 need a address for this number

This came up on my caller ID - but it was made from a pay phone in Atlanta. Go figure! This is a really bizarre phone number!! Google it and see what comes up!!

Don't try to report 214-969-5489 to the FCC, because when i tried they said they don't deal with payphones

Got a call from a caller at 214-969-5489 who somehow got my x-boyfriend's first name and mentioned that my boyfriend was trying to call me collect and that I need to provide him with my credit card number.

When I challenged this caller with things like I don't need to provide my credit card to accept a collect call, and asked who this is, company name, the caller hung up.

I also googled this phone number and there are many people who have received calls from this number asking for their credit card information. Be aware of these scam artists.

I just got home and had a message on my answering machine. It was a collect call from someone by the name Thomas Stahl (couldn't quite understand it). I looked up the number on www.411.com and it said it was a Land Line in Dallas, TX. I don't know anyone by that name and there's no one who would call me collect? Is it a scam, and they found my name in the phone book?

I need help in locating some payphones in the North Valley of Phoenix, And in Glendale AZ

Illegal pre-recorded call to lower credit card rates. Caller refused to give name and address of company. Manager called me a "f**king ignorant bastard". When I told him his comments would be on my blog he replied, "people like you get all together and they f**king bitch and complain about stupid sh*t because they can't just shut the f**k up and listen to people every once in a while". Please post if you have any info. on this company.

The real culprit in the calls coming from this phone number is the company in Texas that owns this phone number and doesn't monitor usage. Use the following FTC website to post your complaints and make the FTC go after them: https://www.donotcall.gov/. Make sure you are on the do not call registry before you attempt to use this form.

I am a telecom consultant of 27 years, and have a customer in Manhattan with the named payphone. I am trying to find who owns the phone since the customer wants it removed. Verizon has 3 phones working beside this one, but Verizon says they do not know whose it is. The customer has no clue, and has not received commissions on the phone since they took over the property.

The number is 212-223-9312. I would appreciate some help in finding the owner. The Serial number is 92190 4052, and there is a customer service #800-922-0086 shown to be Basking Ridge, NJ (AT&T) that is no longer working.

i keep receiving calls form 301 620 3102 number.asking for person with different first name and same last name.numerous times i said "wrong number" and"stop calling my cell phone number".they have been rude,obnoxious,etc.they calls me at all hours ,starting at 830 am until late at nite.ehen i google the number it shows that calls are coming from frederick,MD,non listed verizon #.
Anyone else have same issues?Whta can I do to stop the harrasement,stocking and abuse of theirs?

If anyone calls your home phone or cell phone. Contact your phone company. Sometimes they can put a call blocking, that will reject a specific number. Hope this helps those out there who are badgered by this person or persons from 212 969 5489. This is a pay phone that can not be traced to any one specific land line. So you can only empower yourself and stop the call from coming through by blocking it.

Do not give out information to anyone calling form this number. 214 969 5489. Was told it was form a jail and those who are calling want your Credit card info if you give it. The inmates will use it to make other calls with your CC number.

Scam alert for the 1 214 969 5489 numbers. Trying to get credit card info. Claiming they need Credit card info to get you to recieve a call form a loved one who is trying to reach you. SCAM!!!! Do not give CC info out.

Can anyone help me find the address for this pay phone? All I know is that it is Grand Rapids Michigan. Thanks

can someone locate a pay phone with the number 718-626-0216 - I know it's in Astoria, NY but I was looking for more specifics

i keep getting a phone call from a pay phone but i dont know who it is and no one can help they need to do something so people can find out this information they have the rite to know!!!!!

I am trying to write an article on, among other things, the decline of availabilty of payphones. I must admit I am surprised that there does not seem to be a database published by the telephone companies on the number of payphones that they maintain out there. Is that correct--that there is no such available database? I'm sure that efforts are made to keep the figures on this website accurate, but do those who maintain it have any estimate for what the possible margin of error in their count might be? And if so, is the count likely high (some phones counted more than once) or low (some phones missed)? Thanks!

As far as the comment by "Matt", if that is your name, I NEVER have had a chase card and just started getting these calls a week ago! I have one credit card that I am NEVER late on! I get calls as late as 10P.M., live in Ga. 214-969-5489. I get 3 or 4 calls a night! When I answer, I get a hang up, even if I hold for 5mins. When I call back, busy 24/7! Know what you are talking about door Matt!

I kept getting calls from 423-926-0014, it is a telemarketing firm which had the wrong number. Once I called them and told them the number they were calling was a childs phone they told me the name of the person they were trying to get in the next town from me where I got the phone last year. Apparently it was an old number of the person they were trying to contact. If you want to be removed from their list call them Publishers Direct Service, 1604 Lamons Ln Johnson City, TN 37604-8224 Phone: (423) 926-3711. A nice gentleman answered and said he would put my number on the DO NOT CALL LIST for their company.
Caller: Publishers Direct Service
Caller Type: Telemarketer

My daughter-in-law has been getting phone calls from 702-520-1152. I did reverse information on the phone number and it wasn't in the system for Las Vegas. Operator suggested it might be a payphone, prepaid cell phone or other. She advised that I tell my daughter-in-law to file a complaint with the police department where she lives. These calls are coming in on her job.

Check out http://whocallsme.com. There is something really weird about this number.

I have an Ernest Telecom payphone (circa 1999) and wish to install it in my garage just for fun. Can anyone help me with the programming codes to disable the coin requirement. Any and all programming codes would be helpful. Ideally I would like it to function like any other phone in my home. Is it even possible?

Much thanks

I got a message from the 214 969 5489 number a woman's voice asking if I'll accept the (collect?) call charges. The only thing I can assume is that my boyfriend who is incarcerated, who usually calls collect, is trying to call. I have caller ID and that is how I got the number. I also tried to call and it was constantly busy. His calls used to be thru MCI, now are thru some company Global Link something. It seems to be a generic trunk line used by phone companies...Not necessarily a place in particular. I used to handle phone setups for resorts, so I can safely say that it could come from anywhere.

I got a call yesterday from a payphone 678-344-6502. I know its a payphone because I paid $15.00 for that little bit of information. The caller said my husband is cheating on me. I need the location/address of that payphone because I think I know who called but need verification. Can anyone help me?

At 11:30 pm, I received a call from 214-969-5489. It was a collect call from a brother-in-law in Oklahoma City. However, it wasn't a typical collect call. The answering machine message was from a woman rather than my b-i-l. She kept saying is any there? several times. The strange thing is that my sister-in-law in northern Missouri got the same call about the same time but they wanted her to pay for the call with a credit card rather than collect. I did some checking and was told this was coming from the Dallas area. I can't believe this though because my brother-in-law has been living in a shelter in OKC. He has been ill and since two family members got the same call so late at night, it has us concerned. He has to be in the shelter by early evening or he is locked out for the night. I would think that if something happened to him, the police or someone would contact us. Has anyone else gotten these types of calls? Thanks.

I get one message, on my laguage, some name wich i new, but very strange.

I have been getting harrassing phone calls from 2 pay-phones. I have done some research and know that they are from the same city that I live in. Is there any way I can get an exact location? The area code changed about 10 years ago and I have tried both the old and the new area code. Any ideas you could give me would be greatly appreciated. 253-564-9819 & 253-564-9836 and the old area code was 206. So payphone numbers get re-assigned?

My ex is calling me from a number in calgary...I need to know if it is a payphone...403-285-9980. I am not sure where to look to see if this is one or not. He will not leave me or my mother alone. Help.

Can anyone please tell me where this payphone number locates - 617 338 7940? Thanks.

I too get a call from this number on a daily basis and have just stopped answering, but nonetheless I did an internet search and found a link on the internet which i've attached for your reference. This link is a fax # for a telemarketing company, not a toronto payphone as some people believe it to be. Hope this info helps. http://www.toronto.net/Directory/R32S.html

hi, i received a threatening call from 905-305-0810. i'm guessing it's a payphone that does not receive calls. do you know where this is?

help much appreciated!!

I am getting calls from this number as well. No one is on the other line & I cannot call it back. This is the only hit I got for it when I googled the number. Any ideas what this is?

I'm trying to locate the physical address of a pay phone (512-445-4723) my wife called from. I believe she is cheating on me and I think this pay phone is probably close to "his" location. If anyone can help me locate this phone or give me advice on a service that might provide the information, it would be greatly appreciated. Desperate for answers.

Thanks.

I didn't realize that everyone else is getting this prank caller on their cell phone like I am. They never leave a message, and when I call back, it is either busy, or just rings forever.

PLEASE if anyone knows of a friend or acquaintance who works in the federal gov't or similar agency who can help us all trace down this person(s). It would mean alot to all of us on this post.

My daughter is on life-support, and my cell phone is the life-line between my daughter and her doctors who also use my cell phone to get info about our daughter's status if we're on the road. I cannot afford to be getting these prank calls.

I'm just so glad to have found this site and to be alerted. I googled the prank number that led me to this webpage.

Thanks and hopefully these people will be caught. I am on the DNC registry too, but as you can see, that isn't enough.

Take care

Looking for this payphone for a little chalenege someone put os on, and its not here, its 3015159786. ANy Help appreciated, ty

Why would anybody post spam on a site used by people who hate telemarketers (telephone spam). Can anybody do something.

To "jd" with the home pay phone:

To get your phone working again, try opening it and manually removing the money that was deposited. Deposited money goes into a device called the "escrow" and is later dropped into the collection vault or the return slot.
If your phone is a coin-line type phone, the money will just sit there in the phone because regular phone lines do not send the coin-control signals. Also, disconnect any ground wires, as I had a problem with my phone when coins were deposited, it kept the pay phone off-hook all the time and interfered with the other phones on the line.

Just wondering if it's possible for a payphone in FL to begin with area code 770? Also wanted to post a pay phone # not found in your directory...770-818-3713. If you find where it's located, could you let me know please? Cool website!

These people call out unlisted number and do not leave a message. The caller ID says "unknown caller".

When we call the number back we get nothing.

Probably another scammer.

We bought a payphone @ a garage sale. We had it working until someboyd put $ into it. Now it will not work. And when connected, none of our other phone lines will work. Please help, we love our payphone outside by the pool.

Uh actually buddy it is a specific payphone, I live in Dallas Texas. It is off of Abrams by Minyard.
thanks.

I recieved a call from this number at 9:30 in the morning but no one said anything on the other end. I looked it up and it appears to be a credit card company?? But I am just a teen with no credit card yet?

I get calls from 727-556-5772 about 15 times a day, including weekends. It's incredible! It's probably from Macy's, which has the WORSE call center service I've ever experienced.

818-885-9012

A friend of mine traveling on the road (on vacation)with her family called from this payphone number today at 6:37pm. She said there was no cell phone service where she was and to please call her back ASAP at this number/pay phone.She did not give an area code when she left her messege so I looked at my caller ID unit.
I tried to reach her for over an hour at this number but it was continuously busy.
Worried about my friend I called the camp ground they were supposed to check into. This number is in fact a payphone at that camp ground that does not take incomming calls, always gives a busy signal.
The camp ground sub-leases the pay phones thay have.
The phone is located at Happy Holidays Campground in Cherokee,NC.

I don't know what kind of messages you post here but I need to find a person. All I know is that her first name is Jennifer. She is about to marry some lowlife mario alanis. He tells everybody that he has no girlfriend. He keeps her a secret, thats why it's so hard to find out information about this poor girl. I know of at least up to 10 girls that he fooled around with behind her back. Please if anybody knows anything about her PLEASE post a message here.

Well I do not have any credit cards and I have recieved two phone calls from this number at 1am.. There is no telemarketers or bill sollectors that can call you at that time in the night/early am.. WTF...

how the hell did you get my number its private and non-published? Or do you know someone at the phone company so i can cancel my service GET A LIFE GO TO WORK and get off your lazy ass.

Hi!

I know that you are tired to be called by this phone number 514-982-9805

But the solution is:

The number is from Léger Marketing. So, just call this number 514- 982-2464
and be very angry and said that you needs to be erased from their phone number list. It's your right to be they not have the right to call us any time.


Good look and be courageous.

These people (206 415 9148)have called our home countless times. I truly appreciate the information on this page. Then, in some instances, it has shown as an unknown #. You would think that there would be some way to regulate this type of thing. It really shocks me to think that this is what business in the U.S. is developing in to. Again, I appreciate the posts.

I have also been called by this number. The person would call my cell phone every day during thrid period at my school. Finally I was sick and I answered the phone at home. When I picked up a lady on the other side told me that I had a message from Tennessee-which is odd because I don't know anyone there. She played the message and it was some guy trying to sell me a credit card. I found this even more strange because telemarketers don't leave messages. I hung up on the "message" and the man from the message called me back asking if I had a good credit report. When I told him that I didn't have one he hung up, but the number still calls my cell. I refuse to answer anymore- I thought it was just an annoying telemarketer until I googled the number.

My friend just called me from this phone number and he is at a gas station off of 40 about 25 miles west Albuquerque.

Just saw the posts for this number on this site and wanted to share that in my case, it came from the Saturn car dealership.

I received a call from 415-656-1073. This call was made by a person (my ex psychotic boyfriend) whose name is Thomas Land. He left me a message on my voicemail with the above number on my caller ID which may be a calling card number - I am not sure as he is actually calling from West Winfield, NY so I assume it is a calling card as he actually lives in the (315) area code in NY. He is obsessed with women and sex and is a crack addict. I receive threatening and harassing calls from him all the time and he doesn't stop calling. I would not be surprised he calls "strange numbers" just for the fun of it when he is stoned out of his mind. Be careful of this number.

I have a plan with sprint. Maybe about 6 months ago I started getting private phone calls day & night. Sprint told me there was nothing I could do about it unless I went to the police. Well just recently instead of my phone reading private it now reads unknown calls. The peoples at sprint told me that it was the same thing. They didn't even sound like the knew what I what talking about. They didn't even know how people called private. But is there anybody who knows what the difference is between private and unknown calls??????

For almost a year I have been receiving fax calls at all hours of the day and night on my home number, activated last summer (2006). I don't have a fax machine hooked up so I had no paper trail or info other than using *69 to get the calling number. I had AT&T's nuisance call bureau open a case twice, to no avail. I complained to the FCC, the Indiana Utilities Regulatory Commission, and the Indiana Attorney General's office. No one even responded to the complaints. I finally resorted to paying an online search firm $15 to get the name of the calling party and I spoke to someone there this morning. The gentleman I spoke to said that if someone discontinues service with the phone company but doesn't unsubscribe from the Fax Daily (now called MyCityDaily.com), then when the local number is reassigned, the new owner of the number will continue getting the faxes. If you find yourself with this problem, don't bother with your local carrier, nuisance bureau or regulatory agencies. Just find the owner of the number and do a web search on that name in your city.

thank you "jim from colorado"!! we've been getting calls from that number. thanks for doing the research!

okay the above number appears to be a credit card company. I just googled it again and it came up with some credit card company "First Premier". Not sure why they would be calling or why the phone would be busy when you try to call them, but on the website they have the above number....

To lyndsey in ohio & everyone. I have been getting calls from the same #423-926-0014. Have you ever answered the call? I too called it and only get a busy signal. They called last week a couple of times, never leaving a message and it's really starting to bug. Is there a way to block the number from calling us? It is calling my cell phone.

I am getting calls (3rd day in a row)from 212-547-7000, my caller ID states it's a New York number. No one answers when I pick up and when I tried to dial the number a message stated this is a non-working number. I've tried looking the number up on various payphone website, but to no avail. I'm concerned it may be a hoax, since I've heard of jerks that are locked up calling a number and making numerous calls, then BAM the person is stuck with a huge bill. I hope this isn't the case, that would soundly stink!

I also receive numerous calls from this number with someone just sitting on the other line not responding or saying anything, and when I call back it is busy.

Thank you for posting this information. My wife is returning from visiting her family and she called me from 214-969-5489 and apparently used her calling card.

My first thought was that she lost her way and ended up in Dallas, TX :)

Does anyone know how to get the call logs of a particilar pay phone? I made a call from a Pay Phone last week and have since lost the number. I can't think of any other way to get it but to see the records from the pay phone :(

Yep, they got me, too. Says it's in Johnson City, Tennessee. I guess I could pay the $14-$15 to find out who it is, but I'll be it's just either a wrong number or somebody trying to sell me something...Have a great Memorial Day, folks, and try to remember what the reason for the day is, and be thankful!!!

Regards, D

I got a call from 214 969 5489 this mornings. The caller said it was "the operator" and "Keith" wanted to make a collect call but since my phone "doesn't accept collect calls" I needed to give my credit card number. I refused. Then I googled 214 969 5489 and landed on this series of posts. I was going to call the cops but I won't considering that you apparently can not ID the particular phone the call came from.

we are getting calls from 905-365-9795,
and 866-708-6825, Out of area, The same recorded
message on our answering machine. theese people have been asked not to call here.

I'VE GOTTEN THREE CALLS FROM THAT PHONE NUMBER AND TODAY IS SUNDAY. WHO ARE THEY?

i got a call from this number, i looked it up online and it says its a Dallas TX number, i read on here that several of you are getting these calls too, my phone is a cell phone , how is this "person" or whoever is calling getting cell phone #s and my father is a lawyer and when i find them i will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law!!!!!

My cheating husband Darnell is calling many women from this telephone number. Beware he is psychotic!! He is carrying many std's and I would use extreme caution!!

i got a call from goergia and it said texas

I keep getting calls from Macy's. 727-556-5772. I have been getting these calls everyday including Sunday. I finally got mad at the person calling me, Mr Cruiser. I told him that I owned the phone and it is my house and not to call again. I do not have a Macy's card. He stated that he would not call again. I will wait and see.

I found a phone number and address for those jerks at 423-926-0014

I got a call from 712-432-4444 the other day - it was supposedly a political candidate calling to get my vote - but no name for the candidate. I just thought it was amusing until I read your message.

I checked my toll free and indeed the call was placed to the 888 number.

Please communicate with me here - what's up with this?

MY SIS HAS BEEN MISSING FROM NC SHE CONTACTED SOMEBODY 2NITE FROM THAT # I RESEARCHED IT BACK TO CALIFORNIA. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE.

I have a son who has been missing for 2 months..he last tried to call me from this pay phone#: 361-883-1683 on March 21st. I think it is out on Highway 77 around Corpus Christi, Tx.Can anyone help me find out where this pay phone is located? it may also be a truck stop.

Listen to this, what they are using is a "hide a number" you can buy a subscription to this
www.masquenumber.com this is one of many sites that you can do this with
Now these people are going out of there way and getting pay phone numbers to use this is why most of the time you will not here anyone or anything on the other line when you call back, because it is a inacticve pay phone line
im not sure yet but i am going to reseach blockin payphone or collect calls from land lines if this helps you or you are on the same page as me post back
and we can stop this together

This is getting rediculous. This number was for a credit card company that wouldn't stop calling to offer their merchant accounts. Once I called them and told them that we already had a mercheant account and that we were in the National Do Not call list but they kept calling. Now all they do is call and hang up immediately. This is getting annoying they call once or twice EVERYWEEK.

an man is calling me from 415-656-1073, he suppose to be in S.C. to SICK MOM if you are still looking for your dtg I hope this could help you.

We keep getting calls from Etech. We never answer because we do not know them . The answering machine picks up but they never leave a message. We have a bad feeling about them. They may be logging into our phone number to make calls. we are trying to find out about this. We will notify the phone co.tomarrow. Does any one have any info on this? Looking for answers.

fishbone

I too recieve calls from 214-969-5489. These calls are coming from a correctional facility in North Carolina.

I've gotten several calls from this number on my cell. Searches show it as an El Centro California number...Anyone know if this is a payphone??? And could it have come from a payphone in KY?...Thanks.

I got a call from this number as well and only heard my wife say "can you hear me" and then it disconnected. I then tried to call back without results. Did a reverse lookup on internet and it says "Dallas, TX" but later I found out from my wife (she is OK) that she was calling from a payphone in St. Louis. Stupid company! Can't they assign a specific number for each payphone instead of one for all the pay phones they own? Suppose this had been an emergency! Morons! I'd like to give them a piece of my mind!

This number is recording your voice, for future voice recognition software and security features to be tampered with.

Some lady called my cell phone from this # about 2:40 am and told me that I had a collect call. She mumbled a name and of course I didn't understand. So I called out a name of a friend on the west coast and she said yes. Then stated since my phone didn't except collect calls would I like to pay with a credit card. Hell No!

I meant to add that I found the listing using whitepages.com. I have obtained several addresses this way. (Of PRANKERS, that is) It's saved me a lot of grief. In my business, I really have no time for pranks, and I've seen many people arrested for this, and I have also reached a few out of court settlements from people wanting to avoid a jail term. I really hope this person is found out, because I fully intend to press charges when they are!!!

I got a prank call at my business from this number several times in the past year, and I googled the number. It's listed in the Google Phonebook under A. Watson 2021 Columbus Street Dallas, Texas 75204. I read a post about someone who has a missing wife. Perhaps you should have the police check out this address. I just get a busy signal when I call the number, but maybe they can search the address. I really hope everythig works out, because the idiot calling people from that number should be stopped.

This number is a number that shows up when you receive a call from someone using a prepaid phone card. That is all!

Is there any way to trace a private caller? Or to find out their number?

Okay.. ILD-ILD aka as ILD is a long distance carrier. For the person who is getting charges from ILD on their bill to an 800# ... likely the person who owns the 800# is a customer of ILD. You should call ILD and tell them that you are getting charges on your bill. Also you can call your Local Carrier and tell them it's fraud. See what they can do for ya.

All in lieu of all the stories I have read here ... here are 7 helpful steps to avoid fraud and harrassment.

1. Never give out any info to anyone you don't know.
2. Don't accept unwarranted Collect calls
3. If you get a recording and not a live person hang up. Never start pressing numbers.
4. If you receive calls from unknown numbers or your caller ID says 000-000-000 it could be from an international location and be a scam.
5. Check the OGM (out going message) on your voicemail and answering machines frequently.
6. Never leave a passcode for any phone device on the default.
7. Change your passwords frequently

I see a lot of people complain about this number. I think it could be what they call a pseudo #. This is a number that shows up when calls are placed via an operator, prepaid calling card and or a roaming cell phone. It's likely owned by a large phone carrier and has nothing to do with where the person is actually calling from. If you are getting harrassing calls from a number you don't recognize you should report it to your Local Carriers call harrassment dept. If enough harrassment goes on from the number they can shut it down.

Squirrel ILL post by this person about her hubby having multiple accounts. Good thing is the law says since your his wife you can obtain any information you want about his accounts. If you know the numbers do a reverse search and find out the name of the owner of the line (ie Cell Phone Company). Then call them give them the number and they should be able to tell you the info. If you dont know his number call the phone company and ask for the account by name. If push comes to shove, hire a lawyer and have his phone records supeonaed

This number has a Local Phone Company of Southwestern Bell. It is a LAN LINE. It doesn't appear to be a payphone. For the person who is getting harrassing calls from this number. It is located in Dallas Texas. I suggest you make call call to your local phone company and report it to the call harrasment dept. Also known as call tracing.

All for your information this number is associated with the following company. I found this information on whocalledme.com. It's a scam don't call them back. Don't accept their call. And for gosh sakes don't purchase their product. It apparently cost $699.99 and they promise a lower fixed rate on all your credit cards of 6.9%. Then later send you a package from DHL with paper work to fill out all your credit card information. Who knows they might want your first born child as well. It's a SCAM DONT BUY IT!!!

This number keeps calling around 11 am eastern time every day, had left a couple of very nasty sexual remarks on my home phone. I have two more times for the person to call before they can trace it.

omg

This number called me today, didnt leave a message. Then when I called back came up disconnected. I googled it and came up with this site. What do I do now?

Yes there are other people (including me) who got a call from them. Check this number on http://800notes.com . I just left a message there.

7 times a day is enough!! Should I want your product or service I'd call you.

i am trying to find the exact location of bell canada pay phone 416-531-9639.i know its toronto but what is exact location

Just received a call from this number (CallerID says its from West Palm Beach, FL) with a recorded advertisement. Pressing "1" to speak to an agent to be removed from the call list, "Jessica" answered rather rudely and was not helpful, hanging up on me. Calling back, the number reaches a recording stating the number has been disconnected.

UPDATE: Operator assistance for the 561 area confirms the number is not in service. How is it a number that is not in service ends up displayed on CallerID?

Anyone else with this problem?

I got a phone call from this number last night. It was a woman who knew my name and address. She called me a f...g b**** and threatened too come to my home and beat me like the f...g b**** I am. Anyone else out there getting thes calls?

WHEN RECEIVING AN ANNOYING CALL, AND YOU WANT IT TO STOP. JUST PICK UP THE PHONE, DIAL *60. IT WILL ASK FOR THE TELEPHONE # YOU WANT TO BLOCK. THEN YOU WILL NEVER AGAIN RECEIVE A CALL FROM THAT #. IT IS THAT SIMPLE. THEY WILL TRY BUT WILL BE DENIED. TRY IT. YOU WILL BE HAPPY YOU DID.

905-577-9770
called my place and when I called back the number, it went to a dial tone???
Very weird...
Saw the exact same post here

My friend has been receiving private phone calls but they are asking for me. She already told them to stop calling her and to call me. They say that they do all the time but I never answer. Recently they got my house number and have been calling. But they call my friend constanly night and day. They will have conversations with my friend but it's like they are too scared to talk to me. Is their anybody out there who can help me??!!!!!!!!!! And if you are reading this I just want to know who you are?

Thanks for your input here. I too had this number show up on cell's caller ID. The person I spoke to was telling me they were in Orange County, CA and the area code was reflecting a number in Dallas, TX area...I assumed the call originated from a PAY PHONE in CA as the caller siad, but was surprised to see the 214(Dallas) NOT the 714(Orange County CA) reflected on my caller ID...
Stick

someone keeps callng from 434-385-9819 and sending pizas to my house and taxis.
trying to find out if anyone knows where this phone is located.

I keep getting calls from pay phone # 212-987-5842 any no one says anything. I know its in manhattan. How can I research this.

I just got a call from them as well. it was a chase bank telemarketer.

calls are continuously coming into my phone but no one leaves a message and each time I try to calb I get a busy signal...

Pls adv location of pay phone 616-774-8931

ok, so these people just started calling me, once or twice daily now for a week or week and a half. i know these people are calling you all too, but is it constant, or is there an end to this? if there's an end, what's the best way to end it, not answer the phone, answer and tell them they are $hitty scammers? thanks.

(214)969-5489 seems to be a company number, not an actual pay phone number coming from one pay phone in particular. I've been researching this 'mysterious' pay phone number as I recently received a couple of calls from the number. I didn't have a 'mystery caller' as many of you did, but rather, I knew who was calling me and the location of the pay phone he was calling me from. This particular pay phone is located in Rochester, VT, but the number itself belongs to a whole slew of pay phones across the country and I believe, in Canada as well. Rochester, Vermont has an (802) area code and this is why I looked it up. I knew there had to be some explanation for this. As far as I'm aware, nobody has ever been able to call this number back. Think about it...would thousands of pay phones across the United States start ringing when one person dials (214) 969-5489? This is sort of like a large office building that has hundreds of employees making calls which will appear to come from the same number, but really, it's not one single phone, but extensions. This pay phone number is set up in a similar fashion, only the extensions are a bunch of pay phones located in multiple states at various locations, and obviously, the owner of the telephone number, is the only one aware of each pay phone's 'extension' so to speak. After I spent a little time researching, I thought it would be helpful for people to identify all of the pay phones that have this particular number. I figured I would start the list...
Location of pay phone: Main Street, Rochester, Vermont, I believe it's the one just outside of the grocery store. There's pay phone at the Rochester Gas Station, but I think that phone still has its original (802) area code, meaning it's most likely not owned/operated by the same company as the pay phone with the (214) area code.

Tip: If you receive any suspicious calls from any pay phones or unidentified phone numbers, LOOK THEM UP ONLINE. You're likely to find some answers. I did.

Oh, and one other thing...don't ever believe anything a stranger tells you over the phone. If they sound legit, then ask them if you can call them right back...most fraudulent callers cannot be called back. If they can be called back, look up the number they give you on the Internet. There are lots of numbers posted on various sites/forums that have been used thousands of times and people have reported these numbers when something spelled out SCAM.

My Nokia 2100 with IMEI 353400006969021 . picked up from my work desk yesterday 28.03.2007. the thief has also made calls yesterday evening. based on this info. please help me find my cell. i am sure with all out efforts, my cell phone can be retreived.

Twice when my boyfriend called me, the number came up restricted ID. I asked him where he was and he said a pay phone. Is it true that the number can come up as that on a pay phone or is it being blocked? He may have been using a calling card. Would that do it?

We received multiple calls from an 810 area code saying that it is the Genesse County jail (40 or more calls) and then started receiving calls from the 214-969-5489 from the same black man; we accepted it once to tell him to stop calling, that it is the wrong number, and he asked for my girlfriend by name, then asked her to call a number and he hung up.

I read on the posts bout it being a pay phone number does that include jailhouses...b/c the above number called me and i answered it and i heard my friend say there name and then a recording bout be recorded and that it was from a jailhouse and then they hung up...
Please if anyone knows please share.

280-9984 is from an auto-dialer for sales by:

Western Canadian Furnace Company
(403) 531-6181

Auto-dialer hangs up because of, perhaps, low volume response.

Call them up at (403)531-6181 to have your number removed from their list. I did. Every call I have ever received, every other week or so, would hang up.

I went to Macys.com and clicked on "Contact Us" (where their 800# can be found) and called them. I was transferred to Macy's Fraud Department and they verified that 727.556.5772 was from their Collections Department. Apparently some deadbeat gave them our number as theirs and now they won't pay their bill. Macy's was very cooperative and removed our number from their database. Hope this helps and good luck!

We have been inundated with calls from this number asking for someone we don't know. We have told them at least SEVEN times to remove us from the list, to no avail. Thanks to all of you who have posted messages here, I believe the "Macy's bill collector" theory is correct. I'm going to contact Macy's and look into it. If I have any luck , I'll post it here. Take care!

I have been getting phone calls on my cell phone from a woman who sounds like a real operator telling me that I have a telegram and to hold and then I am advised to press one, which I never do. This time I asked her what is this about and when she just continued with her speech, I said I am not interested and hung up! I am a Verizon customer, so it is not just Cingular.

my cuzin has been missing since feb,27,2007...im trying to find out where she is at....she has called from two pay phone #'s....the numbers are 1718-220-4458 and the other one is 1718-294-1562....if u kno where these phones are located plzzz send me a message .....thanx

i have also recieved numerous calls from this number. every time i have tried to answer no one is there. i'm up to almost 10 calls. i quit answering but it is getting annoying any suggestions

I just got a call from the number 415 646 1073, i thought it was a strange number and area code since im from connecticut, as soon as i googled it i found this website which is a bunch of people who have been harassed from this number. My guess is that it must also be a payphone from the new haven/east haven/hamden area because i had recieved a call from this number last night from my ex boyfriend who does not own a cell phone and most likely used a payphone. Its weird how its popping up in more than one state. Hopefully this helps someone out...

I keep getting call's from 000-000-0000 on my land line
and cell phone. Can anyone tell me what number this is.
I tried finding out myself and no luck.

Thank you,

Trisha
L.A., CA.

Getting MANY calls from this number at odd hours of day and night. Haven't answered since we didn't recognize the number. Not sure what these folks are up to but have to say they're quite persistent.

I've been married now for a year and a half. There is another girl somewhere in this country with my new name, and she MUST have horrible credit. I have lived in CA and NC, and now KY, and these people have followed me all over. Even though I've told them that I am NOT the same person. The girl with my name is in OH, and I've repeatedly told them I've never lived in OH. How can I get them to stop calling? My credit is excellent, and I monitor it often. I don't want this to affect my score, especially since I'm planning to buy a house.

This number is kind of what you would call a National used number from payphones. I believe it is based out of Tx, but payphones all over US will show this number when getting call from payphone. Can not be giving location based on the number because is no one location. There are some payphones that will show dif number but very many will show this number. Hope this helped some of you out.

I received a phone call from my son this past weekend. When I tried to return the call, the above number 214-969-5489 came up. I tried the number, and it was constantly busy. Now I read this website that states that someone using a payphone can access this particular number.

Strange things....

give me the address for pay phone number919-250-3274

I called them back and after the 3rd try someone answered and said that it was regarding my macy's card (they also do bloomingdales(sp?) ). It was a ligit call but I did not give out any info other than my address/phone#/dob. Then he said it was regarding my payment that was not made. He asked if I wanted to make a payment by phone but I told him that I will be making the payment at the store, and then he proceeded to ask where I work or the number to my work, but I declined to let him know that info. And that was that.

This phone number is for Inland Empire Ind Supplies out of Riverside, Ca. They aer very rude, degrading to women and curse up a storm on the phone. Should you want to call them and return the favor, thier direct line is 951-272-8084. Toll free number is 800-219-7790. I am in the process of filing a compliant with the phone company for harrassment. The number is 800-348-8727 and dial #0#0 to get to operator. Lets get this company a bit of thier own medicine.

The number 727-556-5772 (A florida number) called my cell phone at 7:30pm. I missed the call while I was in the shower. I have no idea how they got my number seeing as how I have a Seattle number. But I see this number came up in two other entries on here. Keep an eye out.

Had a miss call from this number at 10:38 PM. Dial the number around 11:50 PM, busy dial after 12:00 AM rang, but no answer. This is kind of I don't know but I'll see if I can figure it out.

locate address for pay phone number 919-250-3274 in raleigh north carolina

I got a call from 727-556-5772 at around 5:36 P.M. EST. It just so happens that my phone battery died right after the lady said whatever she said "Good evening, my name is XXXXX from XXXX....". When I called the number back, the message said to "please hold...your call may be monitored for quality assurance...", but it was, again, hard to hear what company it was.

Sounds like a bad thing, whatever it is...

-Henry

It is not Chase... I don't have Chase and I was called.

I got a call from this number, 936-559-2200, no one I know, missed it thank god after reading all these posts. I do not have a chase card and never have! Any thoughts as to why they are calling here all the time?
thanks

I am certain that my husband is having multiple affairs like I'm certain he has multiple cell phone accounts, but I can't seem to prove it. It's my opinion that he has friends hold these phones for him & the accounts are in different names, but again I don't know where to go or look to find the answers. Can anyone help me learn how to find whose name the accounts are in & when precisely the account was opened? I would also like to know what all various phone things can be purchased, like for instance when I dial a number it says it's disconnected though it's clearly not?

Please help.

why att constantly call when you log in to dsl?

I have received 5 calls from this number in the past week, answered once and heard a "fax machine" noise in the background ~ no response. checked the number in the white pages "a private land line in St. Petersburg, Florida area". Sounds like another scam artisit at work.

I received a call on [Saturday]at 4:42pm from this number. And since getting caller ID, we didn't answer it. We're on the DO NOT CALL list. We'll see if they try calling again....

I got a call from this number annd someone said that they I was pregnant with their baby! I'm a freakin' virgin!!! I'm so freaked out! Watch out for this number stalking freaknut. I'm a freakin virgin!!! What the freak why would they call my freakass. Im a freakin virgin!!! My freakass is a nun!!!! And the nunnery cant freakin take care of no freaky babies. I'm a freakin virgin!!! I thought it might have been my freakass daughters baby daddy, but i was sorely mistaken. Now i just wanna let my freaky ass hang all out. I'm a freaking virgin!!!

This number called my house phone 5 times in a row. I did not answer. There were 2 new voicemails but both times the person just hung up without leaving a message.

I have Oregon cell, tonight someone called from :
801-873-9898. I called back with in 20 mins and the line is disconnected. What is up with this?

Seems to be the Chase Bank collections department.

Someone has got to stop these scum bags! They are calling my number at all hours day and night, and hanging up. Caller ID says only PM. My research tells me that this is an illegal recording machine that leaves messages on answering machines, if it does not get an answering machine it hangs up. The number is given by Marathon Communications in Seattle, but apparently it belongs to Guardian Communications of Moline Illinois. They have been sued by the FCC and the Attorneys General in severl states, but the hang up calls keep coming. I just got another one today at 8 in the morning.

I just took a collect call from my husband who is in the hospital 40 miles away. He was using the phone in his room and not a pay phone so it has to be a number that any operator can use. I know I use calling cards and even tho I use the same number to place all of my calls it always shows differnt caller ID numbers. I know it wasn't a scam cause the operator asked if I would accept the charges and I talked to him.

Hi, I got a call from 46604550700 yesterday (16 February). Was not home, but the number was showed at the display. Seems not only a local joke since it goes to Europe as well.
Anybody know what it is about?

Don't answer this call. It's a SCAM.

When I answered this call, an offshore caller tried to scam me. He represented Macy's and told me my account overdue. He needed me to call the bank for the transmittal # of the check because they did not recieve it. (even with a requst, a bank woudl never send that info).

I looked up my account on the Internet and tried to give him the confirmation # of my check but he wouldn't take ti. Then asked for my bank account # and eventually my soc sec #.

Just got a call from a family member from this number... so it's not just Texas or other areas around there, it's also on the Navajo Reservation... What gives?

okay that number pranked called me.

These idiots are calling me now... it starts at 8:02am and goes every 30 minutes until about 6:00pm!

Is there any way to file a lawsuit?

or past due credit cards. I don't answer anymore because I am pretty sure if you applied for a mortgage then you were just sold to everyone.

Is there a way to request or obtain the records of a particular payphone?

i got a call from this number today, no message though. funny there should be a whole message board about it. when i tried to call back it is constantly busy... wierd!!

this pay phone # was used from Seguin Texas too

When I call a payphone that excepts incoming calls and I talk to a person on it does it charge my phone?

I haven't seen this number anywhere. when I call back it says it's disconnected
says it's in Hancock Texas but I don't know anyone there. and they are driving me crazy. grrrrrrrrrr

Someone called me from this number and I have an unlisted number. How does this happen??

Thanks Emily from Wisconsin you just saved me a lot of trouble trying to figure out this number(423-926-0014) that keeps calling my cell phone. I figured that was about right but its gets annoying trying to figure out what number this is. Your calling and research sure saved me some time and trouble.

I just called my local bbb because my bestfriend is getting phone calls from this telegraphj scam. The bbb went into the national data base and the number came up with nothing. so requested that we either record the next call and or shorthand making sure that we get the name of the company and the scam so we can make a report. hope that this helps.

my driver was in jail in yuma az the pay phone he called from showed 214-969-5489

206-415-9148 is a marketing company selling something. They said I won a trip somewhere (two tickets) which I never applied for.

I think this is a credit department for Macy's department store.

My best friend is getting screwed over by a man - you know, the usual lieing and cheating type. He has called her from a number that he says is a prepaid phone number but when we did some research we found that it is a pay phone number in Dallas.

Can someone help me find the specifics on this phone number? like an address? And if in fact it is still a pay phone number.

The number is 214.351.9779

THANK YOU!!!
Big Bad Bear! :)

727-556-5772 has called my cell twice. Last time was at 10:45am on 02/05/07 (Monday, yesterday). I called back at 10:55am. A computerized system answered and said: "your call may be monitored"; then I hung up ('cause I realized it wasn't important).

I just called again. The message identified the place as "The Credit Center"; "open Mon-Thur 8am-9pm and Fri 8am-5pm"

Hey-I solved the mystery. The above phone number has been calling my husbands cell phone numerous times. I googled it like the rest of you and looked it up on 411.com. Finally, I called the Johnson City, TN police department. Dispatched looked it up on the 911 system, and is registered to a Publisher-Telemarketing company. Get it blocked or go on the do not call list. They are trying to sell something....Hope this helps everyone!!

4156561073 is probably the caller-id display for a incoming prepaid card call. Some telephone companies do not pass the true originating telephone of the prepaid card call. They pass a "fake", non-dialable" number which will display on your caller-id box.

i keep receiving calls from this number in the middle of the night all they do is breathe in the d*** phone this s**t pisses me off

my mobile got a call at 6.04 et last night from that number.weird.i think its a bot or something.not sure what the 8 before stands for,maybe a country code?
googling it gives a result about eurocom something in german , and this site.
http://www.google.ca/search?num=50&hl=en&safe=off&q=8+1+%22604+5507000%22&btnG=Search&meta=

This number is showing up on my cell repeatedly, but I have not spoken with anyone, nor has a message been left. I looked it up on the 411 reverse directory at this is what I got:
(415) 656-1073 is Unpublished or Unavailable
(415) 656-1073
Type: Land Line
Provider: Pacific Bell
Location: San Francisco, CA

Due to number portability, some numbers have been transferred to a new service provider.

Found this number and also 412-622-7837. Both have called me. They belong to Public Interest Communications at this site: http://www.pubintcom.com/employment.html

That number is a Pacific Bell pay phone number out of San Francisco, CA. Here is a link with info from 411:
http://www.411.com/10668/search/ReversePhone?phone=415-656-1073+

Good Luck!

MY DAUGHTER IS MISSING...SHE CALLED FROM THIS PAYPHONE, PLEASE HELP ME LOCATE THE PAYPHONE.

415-656-1073...I HAVE A RUN-A-WAY 14 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER CALLING FROM THIS NUMBER. PLEASE CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHERE THIS PHONE IS

A friend called them back. They got this message:

"Public Interest Charities
They are representing your FAVORITE Charity
If you do not want to be on the calling list
Please leave your area code and number clearly."

I keep getting calls from 801 484 1107. It's only late at night and during the weekends, so it cannot be from some legit company. I have not tried to answer it, nor have I called it back. Maybe I'll try that next time. To my knowledge nobody is trying to contact me with a phone card, though. I don't have a credit card.

Who the hell uses payphones anymore? Where can you find one? These are "spam" calls, like junk mail. What you need to do is play with them. Hanging up on them is the childish way out. Stand up for yourself and take your stress out on the dumb-ass on the other end. Keep your cool though and you'll have a good time. Remember, you don't know them.

214-969-5489 is a pay phone located at Abrams and Gaston in Dallas, Texas. Hope this helps. Close to a Minyards.

Riker out!

I just received a phone call from this number. After googling it. I came across this site. I tried calling the number back from a private line, but answer. This person has tried contacting me in the past. Not sure what they want.

Chase now has a "do not call" 800 number for folks who are getting these calls and are NOT Chase customers.

Call 800-945-9470 and follow the directions. Calls should stop in 30 Days. (Yea right, but here is hope)

tom

just saving my private bloody money

I keep getting calls from this number and i am sick of it!! when you call it back it says the number has been disconnected how do i get this from stopping!! my number is already on the DNC list!!

Thats ONLY (214) 969-5489 Number.

My aunt keeps getting phone calls from this # too. So I did a little research on it and found it's a land line/ provider: United Inter-Mountain Telephone Location: Johnson City, TN I have printed out the info and some of your posts and I am turning it into my local Authorities. They will have this web site and can maybe find out who this is or turn it over to someone that can help.

I have call display and this number came up. When I checked my fax I found I had recieved a fax at the same time (I have both phone and fax come through on the same number). It was a Fax Ad for "75% off Florida & Bahamas cruise Vacation". It was from SS Travel & TOurs (1-800-930-2350) which are proably using some faxing agency. **At the bottom is the message "TO remove your fax number from our database, call toll free 1-866-668-5588". When I called this it is an automated voice asking for your number to remove it. I did it and it said that my number was successfully removed.

I get calls from this number. There from a guy I used to work with. He says he's calling from a payphone and I think it's strange that he lives in lebanon, ohio and the area code is in California. Maybe he's the same guy??? I don't know him very well.

Ok Enough Saying That U Reiceved The Call. We Have To Work Out WHO It Is. Maybe If U Recive The Call Once And They Keep Ringing Call The Police And Ask Them To Trace The Call. Try To Keep Them On The Line For over 1 Min So The Police Can Trace The Call

For Those Of You Who Are Trying To Find The (214) 969-5489 number, I seached the fone resluts aND IT said (214) 969-5489 - A Watson [(214) 969-5489] 2021 Columbus St,Dallas, TX 75204

i've been getting calls from 1-415-656-1073, on my cell phone, which i only give that number out to a few people...i've answered twice and they didn't say anything, i let my voice mail pick up the other two times, but they didn't leave a messege.....i did a search on that number and it shows to come out of califronia....anyone know anything about it?

I have recieved repeated phone calls from this 423-926-0014 number and i am unsure of who it is, so i don't answer waiting for them to leave a message and they don't. so knowing that i can find out information on them i decided to google it and this is what i came up with. i am so glad that i didn't answer the phone and i am going to get that number blocked from my phone now.

These people have been calling for three days now I dont answer cause of the stuff ive heard on this site! They call in the mourning and in the afternoon!

Number 214-959-5489 came up on my cell phone a few times last night, but I did not pick it up. I think this is a residential number that is being spoofed.
Spoofing is done when you make a call over the internet and change the caller ID. SBC Dallas TX owns NPANXX 214-959, but they wouldn't be able to help. I worked on a similar problem a few months ago when some Telemarketing Company spoofed their number and it came up as the local high school on the caller ID. Even Network Intelligence wasn't able to back track the source because it was VOIP. My advice - set the number to "no ring" and don't pick it up.

I think it is a pay phone in southern georgia.

if you see this number show up on your caller id, dont even bother cuss them mfers out and tell them to leave you the hell alone

This number has been calling for 10+ times each day! Usually no one says anything when you pick up, only twice had a lady and a man in indian accent "calling from chase". They are persistant on trying to lure you for "payment you've missed", yet not at all professional sounding. I just hangs up on them.

I called chase and they are little help; chase need to take care of this right away to protect us-customers.

This is a scam and watch out for 1800 424 5004! Just tell the person calling to fxxk themselves!

i accually gave them my cc# and now im in a bind they stole my money!!!!! what do i do? who can i call? email me at angela_babineaux@yahoo.com please help!!!

You need to call a phone that shows caller id's from the pay phone. Then call that number, not the one displayed on the phone wich is usually a parent companies number.

Can U Ring A Public Phone? Like One Next To A Shopping Ceneter? and how? eg 07328508x2 whats with the x in them?

Some people might be using that Vonage service, where regardless of your physical location you can use any area code.

I got a text message from a 484 area code, when I called back to find out who it was I got a busy signal. I wrote the number down, so I will post it once I get that paper.

Well I got a phone call from the number 2149695489, from some heifer. But when I call back, it's busy. Sometimes it rings and sometimes it goes to a busy tone.

I received a call from this number 214-969-5489 last night about 9:01pm 1/16/07 it was from my ex. I tried calling it back and all I got was a busy signal. He said he was at an airport in St. Louis.
But I looked it up online and it says its from Dallas, Texas.

I have a small payphone route in Indiana that i plan to sell.... Consist of Elcotel and Protel payphones. It's a decent little business... If you are interested, drop me a line.

this no. (1-800-424-5004) has been calling me and i never answer any 800 calls but it has started to annoy me when they just kept calling every 15 minutes and even in the middle of the night.. im gald i searched for it in the internet and i learned about all the information about them.

she has been missing since 01/11/07 she called from this 214-969-5489 it says its from dallas does anybody know anything about where this is? Im freaking out! jus called the police in dallas to do a wellfare check on her they said they know where # is located and they going to get back to me

could my wife possibally be with your girlfreind.

the poilce would not give out that info 214-969-5489?

missing since last thursday got a call from this 214-969-5489 on sat night around 11:00 pm.
doing a whelfare check at this address with dallas poilce dept waiting for phone call back. she is by polor and a adict going throught her treatment and programs I cant belive she has ended up in dallas Im so worried!

I just got this call but didn't answer it. I normally would never google a phone number but for some reason I did and it also led me to this site. I called back but I got the busy signal too.

The number 4239260014 is from the LEC in Eastern Tennessee called United Inter-Mountain Telephone. It is a private unlisted number that is 100% automated.

When answering the call it states "You have a unheard telegraph listed. To listen to this message press 2, to have the telegraph message sent to your address by mail press 3, to unsubscribe from our directory press 4."

The recording does not repeat. I will not hit any buttons, because a lot of these numbers would charge you, at least it was common a few years back.

the number 4239260014 is not owned by Inter-Mountain, meaning they are not the ones making the calls... but the number is currently ported to their company, so it's one of their subscribers. The number will call you once in the morning and once in the afternoon.

I sstrongly advice everyone to contact this phone company and report this number as spam or get some owners information. A lot of states are adding cell phones to the do not call list... I am not sure if it is a federal law yet.

You can get all the info above by doing mass internet searches.

everytime they call I call them back, calls have become less since I have been doing this. Kept one of them on the phone for 25 minutes!!! Asked her if she was being forced to do this she said no. I told her she was stealing and asked how much of it she was getting and that I wanted to save her from a life of crime, she thanked me for that!!!! Idiots. I go back to work on monday so I don't have much longer to play with them. Call them back and drive them nuts.

this is a complete scam check around the web about this number IT IS NOT CHASE IT IS A SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We forward their calls back to them since we talked to Lingo and they informed us that would be the only way to stop them from calling here. It really has worked haven't had a cal from them in 5 months. By the way all of you that say they are calling about owing money is a bunch of crap since my husband did not have a balance and hasn't for quite some time, and they were calling here every 15-30 minutes. NO english speaking individuals on the other end and half the time they hung up when we answered the call to find out what their problem was. YOU COULDN'T EVEN CALL THEM BACK at that number and they never leave a message.

SAME THING HERE!!! I've got the 214 calling me... I have been messing with them for a couple of days now... answered: "Dave pizza shop" and so on, even answered the phone in diffent languages(mostly gibberish) just to annoy them back! I found this site cause I searched for the number... Gonna keep playing jokes on them till they stop! It seems that's all we can do. Post your ideas for funny things to say/do to them!!!

I have gotten 15 calls a day for 3 or 4 weeks, when I put this number on the computer yesterday I could not believe all the sites that came up. This is a scam, I made a complaint with the fcc and the do not call registry. Call my phone provider and they told me they could not block these calls, I told them I had called the number back, they checked my account and said there were no charges on my bill for calling that number. Sooo today I called and talked to 4 different people, Scott, Natasha, Kevin and Nasiea, told Scott I never had a credit card, he said maybe someone in your family, I said no I'm an orphan!!! Did not phase this idiot, told them all it was nice talking to them and thanks for talking to my tape recorder!! Stupid Scott said thank you!!!!

I googled this number and it came up from Johnson City, TN. This number calls at least 5-7 times a day. When I call the number back I get a busy signal, and sometimes the phones just rings constantly. What's the deal? 423-926-0014 is the number. It just started this year.

The above number is being used by a Replica Watch Company (i think its a internatiional dialing centre)

1-800-424-5004 Does anyone here also get billed by their phone company for mysterious charges by a company called ILD-ILD bills for 800 numbers. I am beginning to put 2 and 2 together -today the phone rang from 8-4 on the hour and sometimes on the half hour I knew what number was calling and decided to see what would happen if I picked the phone up, all I heard was my hello echo back but I still got calls after that. My theory is that these people will harrass you to death and most likely a computer is doing the calling that is why line is always busy if you call back. They will charge you an exhorbitant rate and that money could go to anyone even a terrorist organization for all you know. Has anyone else besides myself have a dual problem. Monday this number will no longer be able to dial me or I will have a new phone company.
Thanks

North American area codes 214, 469 and 972 are state of Texas telephone area codes for numbers in the Dallas area. Area code 214 was one of the original area codes established in October 1947. Area code 972 was created on September 14, 1996 by splitting the Dallas suburbs from Dallas city proper, but was converted to an overlay when area code 469 was introduced on July 1, 1999. The result was three area codes overlaying the same area, and ten-digit dialing required for all calls.

Some guy just called me. It sounded like a black man. He said he saw me on MSN My Space. He kept saying "Sir" every sentence. He said he was in Atlanta, Georgia. Evidently, 214 is a Dallas , TX area code.

I also got the call from this number this morning. When I try to call back all I'm getting is busy signal.

This number 423 926 0014 has been calling me alot. but they do not speak when i answer and every time I call back there is a busy signal. I googled the number and it led me here, because someone else wrote about this number. Anyone else having a similar experience?

I got a phone call from 214-969-5489 saying it was my girlfriend, she was in MESA, AZ. I'm in Phoenix Arizona...But it comes up as a Texas thing, WTF is going on? Is it error, or glitch or something idk. and before she called from a cell it came up as "Unavailable"...


Once again, the number is (214)-969-5489

How can you find out the location of a payphone? Or if the phone number harrassing you is even a payphone number? Is there a directory? I have already tried calling the phone company. I appreciate anyone's help!

I got a call from this number. He would not tell me who he was even though I kept asking. I thought at first maybe I knew who it was, so I stayed on the line. He just kept telling me that he wanted me to go out with him and that he thought I was beautiful. Very creepy! So I finally just hung up. He tried to call me back three more times but I refused to answer. He never left a message. After reading all the posts about this number, it is freaking me out because he could be anywhere! Someone needs to figure out the mystery behind the number....

214-969-5489 my mother received a collect call from this number from my brother Ed 12-29-06 his message sounded alarming to my mother who is 78. Message, Please call me mom at this number 214-969-5489, we haven't heard from Ed for months and we are very concerned about him this is not his M.O. Any info will be of great help to try to locate him. Thanks

my daughter was on a road trip 12/29/2006 and called me from this number, what she said was a pay phone located outside Waco, Texas, I assume on I-35... it's a Dallas number when you Google it, but I think that's wrong... she said it was a Shell station.

I HAVE BEEN GETTING A PHONE CALL A DAY FROM WHAT I HAVE FOUND OUT IS PAYPHONES. THE LAST NUMBER THAT CALLED ME IS 214-969-5489. WHEN I LOOKED IT UP ON LINE IT BROUGHT ME TO THIS SITE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF ANYONE CAN TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON.

You paranoid idiots should answer the phone and/or pay your credit card bills. The number IS Chase. Your payment is probably past due and they're just letting you know you forgot to pay.

They called me. Didn't ask for any personal information they didn't already have (name, last four of SSN and CC) and that's it.

could i speak with OLGA ? , is Mr Martinez there ?skanks! i wouldnt doubt they are Al Qaiada , these are definetly scammers they are phishing dont give them any CORRECT info . they also have posted in this forum saying they are legit. no legit credit card company would approach you in this manner . i use it as an opportunity to practice my hindi swear words

http://www.insultmonger.com/swearing/hindi.htm

realistically you need to call the police get a case number (very easy to do) then call the phone company annoyance line and they will block it for free. or you can torture them ie: microphone feedback gross sounds whatever comes up \:+)

FYI Vonage can issue area codes anywhere in the world. Tech savvy modem programmers can set up a caller ID message to read anything.

my children were taken and the person who took them called from this number please help me find it i know its a payphone landline possibly owned by verizon?? 727 856 8242 spring hill fl .is only info i could get

I've been getting calls from my psycho boyfriend from the 415-656-1073 number. He claims he is at a pay phone (since I have his cell phone number blocked). . . But he's called twice and each time he claimed he was at a different location in Casa Grande, AZ. I've read some of the crazy things on this site and just want to make sure your problems didn't concern itself with a guy named John B. It just seems really weird. I did call the number and someone answered. But I hung up.

Don't answer thier questions ,they are getting money to support Terrorism. They are an Al Quida unit

I need help getting pay phone services. How can pay phones be set up?

I bought some property in a remote area. There is no cell phone coverage within miles. Many people need to be able to call out due to accidents or disabled vehicles. How can I put in cell phones on my property for public use?

Can anyone give me any idea about this stupid person who doesn't have anything to do, but calling without any respect?

I'm going to saw the Comcast Company since allows to these guys to bother us just like that ...

If anyone finds info about this phone number, please, send me a message on kindn3ss@yahoo.com. Thank you in advance.

If you want to find out where phone calls are coming from just go to www.411.com or for canada www.411.ca and do a reverse look up. It wont always give you a name and address but it will tell you where the phone calls are made from and weather or not it's a landline.

i was wondering about this number , when I saw all the other posts I wanted to let everyone know. It was a friend calling on a VONGAGE phone from Korea , but showed up as a tennesse number...go figure

I am called by the above number a few times a week and want to block it. Can you please advise how to.

this number keeps calling and i dont know who it is how can i stop it.

800 424 5004 is CHASE bank calling to tell you that you owe them money on your credit card. They won't stop calling until you speak with them and agree to a payment plan of money you owe.

i got a new cell phone 6 weeks ago. i am getting 800 calls from 5 different numbers,,, but the worse is
1-800-424-5004.. all my calls are logged.. this number has called 190 times in six weeks. even sunday moring at 7 a.m. ....

My company has been receiving calls from this number everyday this week. The call at least 4 times in a row. Each time I try to call them back and it goes to a mailbox that is full.

I KEEP GETTIN CALLS FROM THIS NUMBER (423)926-0014 AN IT'S TICKING ME OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

for the last couple of weeks, when my husband calls me from a payphone with a completely different number. Including the real area code beginning with [559] area code, this number keeps appearing. so, my husband gave me the real callback number to that payphone to call him back and i got through every time. But when he called from that payphone again or i call back [415]656-1073, it says to check the number, that its disconnected or no longer in service. Maybe a real detective, in who is retired or has the time; could investigate and do some research to see and or distinguish. What, if any of us / recieving the actual calls. All have in common- that are linked to these numbers. And any of u skeptics who believe other wise, can just MIND YOUR OWN BUISNESS!!!!!!!That goes for geeks and nerds alike.COINcedence, c'ommon people!! You all know that is Bullshit to the core!!! If not paranormal, perhaps certain people with permitted access, just get kicks out of it.

This number will not quit calling my cell. 423-926-0014 it wakes my daughter up at all hours and I need to know how to make it stop. Any ideas?

He was repeating the same shit over and over again : Hi my name's «MIDOU». I asked him to who he wanted to talk, i asked him if he knew to who he was talking but he seemed not to understand a f**king word cuz he was reapaeting the same mothatf**king shit!!!

what is the pay phone company that owns this number. i keep getting cranks from some perv and when i track him down i am gonna cut his nutts off.

i keep getting calls from this stupid #

I have received a phone call from this # too. He left a message on my home phone (I had lost my cell) that he is going to kick my *** and that God is watching me. He refers to himself as Grover and the name on the id is Emad J Hasan. But after reading this site I see that the caller id does not matter.
Has anyone else had this caller leave a message. Are they all different people just using the same id.

My son called me from this pay phone 773-725-9372 at about 3:53 pm telling me he was robbed and that he was on his way home. I am still waiting for him to come home. Please help me

I missed a call from 214-969-5489 it was my boyfriend from a payphone at a Quik trip in Godfrey, Illinois- or at least thats what he says. I called the number back twice and the first time all I got was a busy signal, but when I called back later it just rang, no answer.

I just received two phone calls on my cell phone and a phone call at work (which I never give as a contact info). The caller had an Indian accent and said that they were from Chase Credit Card Services. He informed me that I was late paying my card (even though it is not due for another two weeks) and that I must pay it right now over the phone. He was very persistent and would not let me off the phone. I finally hung up on him. I contacted Chase's 1-800# for credit card services, but they were not helpful. After searching online I found this site and others that confirm my suspicion that this is a scam.

Im been trying to find this phone : 514-630-0611 i cant find it anywhere can someone help me

Hey folks, there is a new payphone blog, which you can get to by going to www.payphoneblog.com Give us some feedback on what you would like to see.

Hi, can anyone help me find the location for these payphone numbers? I'm going crazy trying to find out--702-313-7127 and 702-314-6720
thanks, appreciate any help -

Alright I'm sick & tired of all these scammers calling my cell so I found this website that hopefully helps, you can register for free: donotcall.gov

My Mom is basically in hiding from her violent, abusive ex husband has received numerous threatning phone calls from this number 415-656-1073. Two nights ago she got called in to work and left my 15 year old daughter at home. She soon got a call from this number on her cell phone and a woman left a message asking if she knew where her 15 year old daughter was right now and that "when the mom leaves out the back door to go out whoring around, some one could be sneaking in the back door at the same time for the daughter." we were terrified and could not get my sister to answer the phone, called the police. Turns out she was asleep in the basement, fine.

The calls are still pretty scary, though, and she has since changed her number. I noticed there are several entries on this sight with complaints about the same number, so I was wondering if anyone knew where it was located.

I know for a fact that it does not belong to imad j hasen in California, so that is out.

When you dial this number back, it always rings disconnected. Can anyone help?

I keep getting a missed call from this number. When i try to call it back it is busy or no one ever answers. What should i do?

Have you wondered what's in store for the payphone industry? I would urge you to contact your congressmen to support legislation that will help subsidize what few payphones remain across the US and Canada. Has anyone ever had a dire emergency and a payphone helped them out of that situation?

Just wanted to point out that there is a new site for people trying to find a payphone. Http://www.payphonenetwork.com

When this # called my house on the caller ID it read Publishers Direct. I didn't answer it but it only rang 3 times before stopping. I guess I thought that it was a scam of some sort

I missed a call from +466045507000. For some odd reason, I decided to google it and found this site, among other things. Charming. I wonder if I should answer if they ever call again.

If you get harrasing phone calls it is probaly since you all deserve this since you were mean to someone some time ago. Dumn asses.

i got a call from this number tonight both on my home phone, and then on my cell. This is really strange cause i dont give my cell # out to anyone. They left a message on my cell, cant understand it though, too much static, all i can make out is a male voice saying they are trying something and they are at home. Really strange cause its both my cell and my home. I called it back and get a dial tone and a busy signal.

hi
i would like to know what is with this phone number ,, ?

When you get a call from a payphone that does not receive incoming calls and you try to call it back with the number on your caller ID, you will probably get the company that provides operator/long distance service to that payphone. The reason is because when someone dials a # from a certain payphone, it saves the dialed # for a sec, dials the operator service/long distance switch, gets a dial tone from there, and then dials the called # from that switch (all of this happens without you hearing it). That way a particular operator service/long distance provider can capture the revenues from the call, which they usually share with the payphone provider.

I got a phone call from a couple of #'s in the last few days and the keep hanging up every time i pick up the phone. 415-656-1073 and 214-969-5489. Can you help me out here?

I got a call from a 4156561073 # and I try and call it back but it says its disconected.How can that be

I received a call from this number on November 24, 2006. Because I didn't recognize it as being from amyone I knew in British Columbia, I ignored it. It rang again and I answered it. It was from my sister in England telling me about the death of one of my brothers. I've been trying to find out why the call was routed through BC. Usually calls from England come straight through. It bothers me that this company now has my telephone number.

I have a number here that i think is a payphone, it is not on the list of payphones on this webpage, is there any other way to find out if it is a payphone and where it is? the number is 416-750-8937. thanks

I have recieved 10+ calls today from 800-424-5004 and finally decided to look it upa nd I found whole bunch of scams it looks like involving this number. When you answer it sounds like no one is there. If you call it back it says it is customer service but never gives you a name of the company and will transfer you to an agent but no one is ever there. all day the line said call back during normal business hours.Whats up with this number?

I signed up with Time Warner digital phone service and not I get this number calling me everyday. The Caller ID says "Publishers Direct". These MFers call late at night. Just did a search on the number and found this forum. I just registered on the national do not call registry We'll see. Bottom line I blame Time Warner for giving out my new number, F@#$ Time Warner!

Can you please help me find the location for this pay phone, i get repeated hang up calls every day. 915-593-9804

Got a phone call from (214) 969-5489 and no one ever spoke. We've been getting a lot of calls like this lately. Someone in the house was looking for grants online and they entered the house number, ever since, we've been getting calls like this. Not sure if that is why we're getting calls like this though. It's aggravating. A lot of times I'll just put the phone up to the TV with it going.

I just got a call from that number and had no idea who it was. I hope they don't keep calling me. Did anyone find a solution?

Thanks

this bitch calls at all hours and im pissed off now so if anyone knows how to stop them, post it please!

-a very pissed off bitch

I got a call from this number this afternoon and when I answered there didn't seem to be anyone on other end. I tried calling back several times and got a busy signal each time. ????????????

I got a call from this number as well, but it was my friend calling from a pay phone with a calling card from a hospital in Oakland. It must be a calling card company.

Kathy: I don't know where the location is but I recieved a call from this number this morning as well....interesting enough

IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE THAT CAN GIVE ME THE LOCATION
OF WHERE THIS PAY PHONE NUMBER IS AT???????????????

I have this number 208-327-1751 On my caller ID. Heads up people I have the information some people are trying to find out on that number. It is a Company based out of Boise, ID. They are a telemarketing firm. I have there address Its

Sturner & Klein
7285 West. Fraklin RD.
Boise, ID.

They have other offices also. I also got this number (208)327-1700 as there main office in Boise ID. Don't asked how I did it because It was very easy. If you get more then 3 calls in one day that is considered harrasing phone call. You can report them to the Federald Trade Commission at www.ftc.gov.

I wanna call a mobile number in sweden , i probably will talk for max. 15 minutes.

I wonder how much that would cost me.

If anyone can answer my question i will be realy glad thank u .

I got a call about 5 minutes ago from a comrade of mine who lives in Ohio. He called me from (415) 656-1073 but it disconnected us & so when I called it back, it fucking said the number was disconnected which is very bizarre & upon checking to make sure I didnt write or misdial the number, it was definetly disconnected. Weird. The area code is California but he is in Ohio and I know with 100% certainty that he is in Ohio.

I received a call from this number. I was told that the call came in from North Carolina. However, 415 is a San Francisco area code...i hope this will help someone!

It is a telemarketer in Johnson City TN . I got a message that I have a telegram and when I said ok to receive it was a sales pitch. They call all of the time.

A friend of mine from chicago is having the same problem with this number calling her today and they would not say anything when she answered and it happened a couple of times.. from what I am reading from posts from just today this is becoming a real problem and maybe a scam so Beware !!!! oh and if they continue they should be prosecuted the the fullest extent of the law!

I am desperatly trying to find out where these 3 payphone numbers originated from. I need to know their location because I am looking for my husband who left 2 months ago & is calling me. I know he's still in Sudbury but I need to know where he's callin gme from so I can go & try to find him! The numbers are as followed: 705-673-8737; 705-671-0161; 705-673-6701.
Can you please help me in finding these phones locations? It would mean the world to me to find him!

i get several calls from this number and they are rude and call all hours of the day even as late as 10pm...we've told them no not interested and they keep calling back and are rude... number untraceable and says not working number when you call back how can we stop these harrassing calls?

I just recently began receiving calls, to my cell phone, from the above number. I have read that others have attempted to call it back and never reached anyone (rang forever or busy signal). On occasion there has been a human on the other end asking questions.. Personally, I'd like to talk to this group of people myself. Anyone know if telemarketers and that ilk have the ability to "see" past a *67 block? Please let me know. Thanks!!
PS - Yes, I've registered my number with the DNC register, but I'm sorta sick of all this, ya know?

This number called me this am but when I phone it back it says its not in service. huh? How's that possible?

My son just called from LA and this was the number that showed up. Caller ID said "TEXAS" which disturbed me because he is flying from LA to Houston to Boston and if he really was in Texas, he was there WAY too early. Turns out that this bank of payphones must point back to some network number in Dallas. 214 is in Dallas, not Houston.

I had received several calls from this number for about 2 weeks but they never left a message. I finally picked it up the other day and they said I was also 2 months late on my Macy's account and would I like to pay NOW. Luckily I didn't I said I would mail it in. It is kind of shady. Because the amount they said my balance was, was way off. My theory is that they have some shady people working there that call out on random accounts trying to get phone payments that they can pocket or something. My advice would be to not make a payment over the phone tell them you will mail it in or pay at the store. That worked for me, they have stopped calling, for now anyway.

We are once again receiving calls from this number, but the call is terminated before Voicemail picks up. This forum was very helpful in identifying Macy's credit as the culprit when the calls first started several months ago. We have an active account with Macy's, but our payments have always been on time. We are now going to pay off our balance and CANCEL and DESTROY our Macy's card. Life's too short to have to put up with this nonsense.

I have been receiving calls from this number at all odd hours of the day and night- five in the morning, eleven at night, and all through out the day. Sometimes four or five times a day. I do have a Macy's account (or did) but this isn't right because i paid my Macys bill off in full, cancelled it, and now they're saying that I owe $435. Every time I try to call to get it straightened out, I get someone on the phone that's straight from India and can't understand me, and they always refuse to transfer me to their supervisor (who I'm sure I would at least be able to understand) They never leave a messege, and every time I have answered and tried to talk to them, I tell them that I am in the process of straightening it out, and it's like they dont understand the words that are comming out of my mouth. They continue with, "Would you like to pay that now?" Uhhhh, didn't i JUST say that it was a mistake? and if they call me five times a day and I keep telling them that I am trying to get it worked out, wouldn't they annotate it on my account and stop calling me for a little while? It's very weird and extremely frustrating.

I need to find a way to access my girlfriend's voicemail on her verizon phone. How can I do it without her passcode, or how can I get her passcode?

Desperate

This am , my cell (t-mobile) and house rang several times with this ##. I called back and it rang busy. Then I googled the number and found this list. Thanks for the advice found herein!

Sturner Klein comes up on caller ID, but it is the National Geographic Society. They claim they are calling about a gift certificate you sent last year, even though you deny it and state you are on the national do not call registery, they still harass you. File a complaint with the national do not call registery at www.donotcall.gov, you can register your home, office and cell phones and if you do get solicitation calls, file the complaints, they begin to stop calling within a month.

727-712-0382 says to be Quality Resources. A telemarketer for Value Pak coupon service out of So. Carolina. Giving away $40.00 gas coupons for $1.00 delivery charge. If you like the coupons, you can join their monthly club for $9.00? per month. Scam to me.

The actual second number below is 269-934--8249...sorry

I have been receiving calls form both of these numbers as well. I have two cells thru cingular. I would really love to know if it is just cingular being effected. As they are making alot of money on wasted minutes. Anyway the 432-926-0014 is always a recording saying you have a telegram and to press 1 to hear. Never press one, just hang up if you answered it. And the second number it was actually someone telling my spouse that something was wrong with her visa card. She doesn't have a Visa and when she informed them of that, I grabbed the phone and heard him saying that he made a mistake and that it was actually a mastercard. I then said that I actually had a Visa and he was a little surprised but didn't miss a beat and said that there was a problem with my Visa, as though he was reading from a script asked me to verify my mailing address, and I am sure if I had answered that he would have asked me to verify my CC#. Anyway I said no problem, However I had another call and asked if I could get a call back number. I was immediately disconnected. I know most would not fall for such a primitive attempt at getting information, however I am sure they are targeting the elderly, which may be successful. I would love to find someway to track these people down, as they are using different phone #s possibly thru VOIP and if you call these numbers back they are disconnected or busy. Anyway I would love to know if anybody on here are receiving calls via land line or a carrier other than cingular?

My son is on a Greyhound bus, from Ft. Worth to Cincinnati. He called me from Ft. Worth this morning and this was the number that showed up on my caller ID. When he called this evening, he was in Memphis, Tennessee, but the same number showed up on my caller ID. Last month, while riding Greyhound, he called from Louisville, KY............same number. All of the payphones at the Greyhound bus terminals must be networked or something because every one of them shows up as the same number. You cannot call it back, no pay phones ring anymore I don't think, you just get a busy signal. But it is kind of weird that phones all over the country would have the same number. Technology is great but can be kind of weird, I guess.

Ok, so I just called Macy's and cancelled my account, as well as called their fraud department. The guy said that the number is for their internal collections department. Apparently, it's not a scam. I just paid my account in full and closed it. Perhaps they should hire less shady people...

I've been getting a call from this number for over a month. Finally, I answered it last night when I was out at dinner. This woman, who sounded like she was from East India, was telling me that my Macy's account was two months overdue. Then she threw out some phoney amount like $203 that supposedly was due on November 12th. Already suspicious, I didn't tell her any information other than I'm taking care of my bills and if I'm not, she can call me back. She wanted to verify my mailing address, at which point I said, I don't care to do that over the phone. I also reiterated that I would take care of my account and she could call back if I didn't. This must be a huge scam. I called back and a man said he was from some credit agency, but it was really weird. I would recommend that NO ONE give these people any personal information. They may surprise you by having some information, such as your name and which credit card you have, but they're just waiting for you to fill in the blanks.

My mom recieved a phone call from this number and it showed up as ILD COMM on caller ID. It was a man that was talking really nasty to her. XRATED! She told him what he could do, and hung up on him. Me and my sister has been trying to call the number back and all we get is a busy signal.

MY GIRLFRIEND CALLED ME FROM THIS # AT A PAYPHONE AT A HOSPITAL IN KY, SO IM SURE IT IS A NETWORK THING.

For everyone worrying about calls from 214-969-5489. This is the incoming number you will see from a large number of payphones all over the US. Instead of the actual payphone number being sent to you via Caller ID, the phone company handling these calls (in Dallas) substitutes what is known as a "pseudo ANI" in place of the actual calling number.

So basically someone is trying to reach you Collect/Calling Card from a payphone. Nothing to worry about and no great mystery :)

Guys, I just got a call at my office form this 206 #. I registerd our company on teh national DNC registry in 6/05, but today I just read teh rules adn regulations. It appears as though callers who are not asking for payment are not hendered by teh DNC registry. Below is a "copy/paste" form teh DNC site:

"The National Do Not Call Registry applies to any plan, program, or campaign to sell goods or services through interstate phone calls. This includes telemarketers who solicit consumers, often on behalf of third party sellers. It also includes sellers who provide, offer to provide, or arrange to provide goods or services to consumers in exchange for payment"

These callers are clever. They are not "selling" they are "giving away." That is how they get around lawsuits. It sucks!

wow i got a weird fonecall from this 727-556-5492 # that i didn't answer and i googled it to here
creepy...a lot of people get this # it looks like

I recieve calls everyday from this number and the gentelman who calls is located in Orlando, FL. It is a pay phone and it is run by a company out of Texas; I'm guessing all the payphones operated by their company have this number.

I received a call on my cell phone from someone I know at 3am on 10/23/06. My phone wasn't on, but he left a message. My cell phone allows me to return calls from my voicemail by pressing "88" and it said it was dialing 214-969-5489. I would sure like to know what is up with this number, how can people be receiving calls all over, from the same number and at the same time?

Hey I got a call from this number and I need help it was a collect call from my mother and it said some hosptial I talked to her for a few mins trying to understand what she was telling me and then she had to go she said she would call me back but that was over an hour ago and im really worried about her. I called the number and its always busy and google says its in Texas but we are in NE can anyone help me im worried.

I got this call and whoever called left a message on my machine. In the message They stated my name and then said they needed to talk to me. Before hanging up the person calling asked where I was at and called me a bastard. If you receive this number on caller ID DON'T answer it is someone pranking or wanting your personal info

I did a net detective search on this number: 415-656-1073 and this is what it found.
HASAN, IMAD J 407 GIRARD ST
SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94134-1715 415-656-1073

Ok! I have seen this number on my missed call list many of time.

We've been getting calls from this number, and similar scenario, I would answer the phone and no answer or busy signal, then finally my husband answered and they requested his cc#. SCAM... They claim to be a company called Reader's Mart out of Johnsonville, TN. We searched the number on caller id and turned up this page. Also, we typed in the name of the company and pulled up this website- http://www.complaints.com/... If this complaint is true it is absolutely heartless. My husband is disabled, and receives government benefits and works. There's been a rash of scams dealing with folks who receive funds of this nature. He has requested to be not contacted. They offer magazine subscriptions, jewelry and prizes via a telegram. We also searched for this company name and real location... Reader's Mart 915 W 5th St Waterloo Iowa 50702 (319) 235 9792. They are a recruiting office of some kind. This business name does not appear anywhere in or near TN. Hope this helps.

My friend just called me from this number. She called from a pay phone using coins, not a phone card. The call was made from Santa Monica, California.

This is what came up also when I googled it: A Watson (214) 969-5489 2021 Columbus St, Dallas, TX 75204 Map

I got a call from this number a couple days ago, it was someone I knew though, they left a voicemail message on my cell phone. The number came in on my cell phone caller id as Dallas, TX that is why I did not answer, this person lives in MD. I am assuming that this may be a phone card? I'm not sure. I call the number over and over but always get a busy signal. I have no way to reach my friends anymore becuase they didn't leave a number and well obviously calling this number is of no use. They said they would call back and never did. If they do I will answer this time knowing (i think) who it is and find out how that number came up from then and post for you guys.

I too have gotten calls from this number at 5:41am EST! This has been part of a long series of VERY frustrating non-traceable calls. My caller ID gave it as IDL COMM and traced it to Dallas. Calling the number only gives a busy signal. Embarq phone company is NO help.

This is some kind of pay phone. I heard money dropping in when my husband called. He said he was in Quartsite, Arizona. I did a US Search, says this number is in Dallas, TX with a phone switch type:WECO 5ESS Digital, with Southwestern Bell. Told me that the line he was on would only operate for 2 minutes. Does anyone know what the phone switch type is and what it means?

The idiots that are making the calls have access to the internet in any library in the country. They can check these lists and plan their attacks. Be careful what you share...

Hello people! have you ever thought it could be a phone card. Duhhhhhh!!!

i got a call from this number, it came from steven r duke who supposedly lives in north carolina. when i try to call back i get either a busy signal or no answer. comes up IDL COMM in caller id

I was wanting to know if this number is a pay phone # 830-278-7165. I have been receiving calls from this phone and no one talks on the other end. I don't have time to play these childish games. Please help!

Hi, I keep getting phone calls from some payphones in santa ana I live in garden grove ca. I need to know the locations of these pay phone #s 714-973-9318 and714 210- 1763> If some one could post the location in santa ana ca. It would help thank you.

I mean it was a pay phone.

I received a call from the same number. It was someone I know calling from a cell phone in the central Oregon Coast.

I too received a call from this number. I did not answer it. I Googled it and found this site!!! Now I call it back and it is busy!

Strange

I finally found out who this number is. After getting several calls from this number and not being able to call it back, either a busy signal or no answer. If you say hello, for a long time there is silence no one will answer you, finally a recording comes on and it says that they have a telegram for you and either you can get it on the phone by pressing 1 or having it mailed to you by pushing 2, I needed to know who this was so I pushed 1, it is some type of company trying to say you may win money if you give them information, I then hung up when I heard this. They called back acouple days later and I listened again it said something about if you wanted to be takin off their list to push 4, so I did so far no more calls.

My son received a call from this # and was told he would be jumped in 15 days if he did not leave $100 under the trash can at McDonalds. We live on the Coast of Oregon supposedly this # is a payphone in Roseberg OR which is the far south of Oregon over an 8 hour drive. The odd thing is that they asked for my son by name and his cell phone is not registered in his name. So this # must be being used by pranksters and they have found a way to put this # on your caller ID.

Hello,
I have been getting calls from 561-241-8073. On Caller ID it comes up as " USRI" What does that mean??
Thanks!
Chris

My husband and I have seen this number on our caller Id everyday this week. He has answered it and the person just hangs up. We try calling it back and it is either busy or just rings and rings. We called 411 and the local operator for Johnson City, TN and they both say that is either a pay phone or cell phone. We are going to see if the local cell phone company's in that area know the number. If anyone knows anything please let us know.

I see that I am not the only one having calls from this number, its so upsetting, you cant find out who it is, and just like the other person said when you call it you sometimes get a busy signal or no answe at all. Wish someone out there could tell us who this number belongs to>

The number in the previous post from 214-969-5489 is a number that keeps calling me as well, with some message in spanish i can't understand, coming up as ILD COMM on caller ID, I called the company at 1 888 ILD COMM and she said she'd never heard of the problem. So apparently they're not above bs. Apparently they're a telecom company that transfers calls for people or something, they were a bit cagey about their answer. I called the other number she gave me for some kind of call centre, and they said they can't look up whom their customers are calling, which seems like more bs, as they almost certainly have to by law keep such records, and also for billing I would think. So I say might as well keep calling them until you get a person to answer, it charges them for each call made to a 800 number btw

If anyone can please help me I am trying to find the address of a pay phone that someone keeps calling me from. This person never says anything & I am hoping that if I find the address I could maybe find out who is calling. Just to note my Mother also gets the same calls to her house & we think that someone may need our help. The # that shows up on the caller ID is
403-280-9984 the pre fix fits in with north east Calgary so that may be a good place to start!
Plaese HELP!!!!!

THIS NUMBER (214-969-5489) CALLED ME AT 3:49 THIS AFTERNOON. I OWN A CAR LOT AND IT WAS A CUSTOMER THAT IS ON THE REPO LIST. THE CALLER ID SAID "DALLAS TEXAS". AFTER READING THIS, PEOPLE SAY DIFFERENT THINGS, LIKE IT'S A NEW YORK NUMBER AND IT'S A PAY PHONE. DOES ANYONE KNOW FOR SURE? THE CUSTOMER SAID IT WAS A GAS STATION PAY PHONE BUT DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE CITY OR STATE. ANY HELP?

Has anyone ever received a phone call from the Union County Jail? I'm asking, simply because I want to know if someone (yes, that I know and am waiting to hear from) has called me from there. I received a phone call from 908-965-6822, Oct. 12th at 8:00 pm. On my caller idea, it literally came up "PAY PHONE", so I know its definitely that. When I tried finding where the phone was located came from, *Information (411)* told me that they couldn't even trace the number's town. I did find out that it is a Verizon powered number, but thats about it.

I have received a phone call from this # too. He left a message on my home phone (I had lost my cell) that he is going to kick my *** and that God is watching me. He refers to himself as Grover and the name on the id is Emad J Hasan. But after reading this site I see that the caller id does not matter.
Has anyone else had this caller leave a message. Are they all different people just using the same id.

Hey that Number 1-936-559-2200 is just from davenport unversity - i google and got this site then they called back and left a message as i was looking at this site - ps athabasca university is better lol

This person with thenumber 214 969 5489 call me but I did'nt answered because I was bussy I want to know who this person is please callme my phone number is 815 298 8582

I am looking to purchase a functioning Payphone with the old Wisconsin Bell logo on it-- does anyone know where I could find one? No luck on eBay or Google.

Thanks to this site the word is getting out about these pigs! I quess calling them pigs is bad they hate that.anyways what iam doing is sending an email to my local news stations with most of the feedback about this scam. I hope that one of them will say something on the news to warn the few poeple who might tell these a-holes what they wanted to hear and steal there money. Iam shocked that irt is still going on??? got a call today. the fact that they have critical information is alarming. Someone needs to be held accountable for this leak of info.

Is there a chance the number would show as 00466045507000, if a person in England calls a person in Denmark using this number/card?

The first four numbers indicate that the call is from Sweden (0046), which quite confused me, since I expected my friend to be in England.

We're back. Please follow the rules when posting. Any post which violates the rules will be deleted. Thank you for using payphone-directory.org.

I have been getting four calls a day from this #. They say they are a credit company when I call the number back. So, I googled the # and this web site came up.

received a call from 214 969 5489.. call back and no answer

got a called from this # on 9-4-06 at 12:53... i called bk and it was busy then i tried again n it just rang..

That number is a payphone at Dunkin' Donuts at 4850 33rd St, Long Island City, NY 11101 I have used it to prank many people I live a block away.

Just got a call on my mobile from this number. No one responded when I answered and then eventually they hung up. Funny thing is that my mobile is a UK number! Very irritating.

800 424 5004. Someone from this number called my cell. I called back and get customer service. Ok..what customer service does it represent? They keep you on hold for the next representative way too long. Finally I google it and it brought me here. What gives?

I am sick of the stupid fools spamming this message board with their advertisements for cell phones, and "tracking" services. These dopes cannot even spell correctly, and are not even in the United States, even though they pretend to be.

Do not patronize them, and do not send them any personal information.

Could this be the new generation of the "Nigerian Scam"?

I got a call from that #. Actually, probably more like a dozen calls. Finally, I answered. The guy, who claimed to be a man named Aaron, asked for my boyfriend (who has a completely different number than me). I asked him what he wanted and why he kept on calling me. He said I can make the calls if you give me Brian's (my boyfriend) number. I got pissed and asked him what he wanted, what company he was from, and why he was calling my phone. He evaded all of my questions and just asked me,"Are you Brian's wife?" I lied and said,"Yes", to which he replied, "Just so you know ifby chance you aren't his wife, it's a second degree misdemeanor." So I just asked him if he wanted his #. Then I gave it to them. DO NOT DO THAT. I figured out, after reading messages on here that it was a mistake to give them ANY information at all. there is an 800# on this site, I think it's to get them to stop calling? 1-800-708-2375

I keep receiving calls from 888-341-6575 on my cell phone and when i answer i keep getting hung up on this has been going on for about two weeks from the same number.. I google it and it brought me here. Does any one know what is going on

need to find location of pay phone in mobile,alabama 251-653-9304. thank you

i have been recieveing calls from 423-926-0014 every mid morning and mid afternoon every weekday.i googled it and found this webpage the only information that i can find out about this number from 411.com is:

*(423) 926-0014 is a land line based in Johnson City, TN
The registered service provider is United Inter-mountain Telephone*

i do not know anyone from tn, i have never answered them but if i try to call it back sometimes its a busy signal and sometimes it just rings and rings....anyone find out anthing more about this number????????? thanks for any information

I missed a call from 214969-5489 & called it back and all I got was a busy signal also, then the number called me back a few minutes later, and it was my brother calling from a payphone in Colorado, so I'm glad it wasn't some person trying to pull a scam like some of your other experiences.

Has anyone figured out how to stop 801-542-3991 from calling you??

Thanks!

I was receiving calls from this number all day. I looked up the number and found this site. I answered the next call and the guy said he was from Chase. I refused to give him any info, told him I was going to call the number on the back of my card, but he kept trying to get info from me. I called Chase directly and they said they had no record of anyone trying to contact me. They even called back while I was on the phone with Chase. Hopefully they got the clue now that I'm not about to be scammed and stop calling.

Wow, am I ever glad I googled this number. I just got a call from this number at WORK. How they managed to get my work number, my first/last name, and that I have a Macy's account is pretty freaky. They told that I owed 5 cents on my account and asked me if there was a reason my account was 2-months deliquent. Smelling a scam, I told them I was never deliquent and hung up. If I keep getting called while I'm at work I'm gonna FREAK.

My Friend from Alabama...I think what is going on is that your suns father and my boyfriend may both be using phone cards. The kind that allows you to purchace more minutes. That is what it sounds like. He called 4xs today 2x from a number I am guessing is a phone booth in Wickenburg AZ and 2xs from the TEXAS phone number. both times when calling from the TEXAS # we were disconnected after appx 2 minutes.. Please keep me posted if you find out anything ..thanks

I have been trying to find out about this number ,
2149695489. So far...
A. Watson
2021 Columbus St.
Dallas , TX 75204
My son's father called me from this number.
He should'nt be anywhere but in ALabama, unless
he took a trip I don't know about.
I call this number and all I get is a busy signal.
This is too wierd.

Ok...for those of you interested..My Bf called again at around 7-8pm from the same Dallas number. He says he is at the laundry mat in Wickenburg AZ. I listoned to see if he was dropping quarters but heard nothing,one more thing . We always get disconected without warning when he calls from this number . After about 2 minutes. he usually calls back saying he put more money in... tonight he did not. lol...so hope this helps someone who gets this same A Watson phone number and is bugged by it. Could it be a calling card??? and if so would the same # come up in different places...also ..i put the dallas address for A watsons telephone # in the reverse address and came up witha list of names of people who lived at that address and A watson was not on the list. hmmmmmmmm.....

after receiving my first call from my bf from this number i googled it and came up with a name in dallas texas...(he was in AZ supposed to be)i saved the number in my cell as TEXAS so when he called from there i would know. He called this morning and said he was in down town Wickenburg AZ . He also said he put quarters in the payphone so how could it be a calling card? I have to get to the bottom of this. it is killing me and taking up all my energy. if anyone can help me ...please do so ... Is he lying to me ? Is he in Wickenburg or Dallas? I should just move on and forget about him .......=) u tell me

This people -EasyTel- somewhat affiliated to Van Ru corporation may be running a scam by getting people information over the phone. Perhaps trying to stealing identities, ssn, credit card information or something. They call and call and give no response or informations to qeustions asked.
Any information should be reported to State attorneys, FTC or Consumer Service Bureaus.

i keep receiving phone calls from the 866 302-0858 number above telling me that they need to speek to Tom. Tom is my son (5 years old). Apparently they think he owes a past verizon bill. When I explained that my son is 5, the person on the phone told me that he must have set up the account on his own. (I guess when he was 2years old?). They continue to call even though I told them that it couldn't possibly be him. Does anyone know who this company is and how do I get an address for them to send to the Attorney General?

i been receiving lots of phone calls from this number wich is 973-279-0000 what i do know is that this phone number is from NJ but wat i would like to know is that were in NJ is this phone coming from

I got a call from the number 16045507000 too... its a guy from Nigeria who was trying to scam me for something I was selling on the net. He sent me two fraud money orders for 2000$.

Call information for the area code of 780. 780-555-1212 they can tell you what city that phone # is in. They will also be able to tell you if available who is assigned that number and maybe give you an address also. Worth a try.

My son is missing and may have called from this Edmonton payphone # when I was at work. Unfortunately I had forgotten to put the answering machine on. I checked *69 when I got home and this is the # that had called 780-481-0781. If anyone at all can help in any way to identify the location of that # please post your reply here on this site. THANKYOU!!!!

Hello,
I would like to buy a few refurbished pay phones.

just got a call from 727-556-5492 it was kind of fun talking to them knowing they were scamming me. I gave them bogus info and they seemed quite happy, I guess they will be until they try to cash that bogus check with the fake info I gave, hahahahaha

I have a payphone #- o need location- 818 767 9505- plz help! its in SO CA

A call from this number comes frequently and when we pick thw receiver there is a tone of fax machine .On calling this number there is no response and message probably from the Public switched telephone network is that this number is no longer in service.On checking this number with the Canada 411 directory,it shows this is landline phone based in Toronto detail description of which is not available.

I find it very difficult to understand how payphones located from Western US to Eastern US(TX, FL, NC, TN, CA) could possibly show up on caller ID's with the exact same number. Anyone have any suggestions or explanations?

I just received a call from the number above which has been the topic of several posts. It was a priest friend of mine using a calling card to reach me. He is a Canadian, but was calling from MI.

He called while I was on the forum looking for the source of the number. What's the odds of that?
I'd say these calls are coming from a central number utilized by a calling card service.

At one time, someone had reported that the number (646)205-9399, was a payphone in Roseburg, Oregon. The area code is a Manhattan code, but this is actually a payphone, in Kelso, WA. It's REAL number is (360)577-9550, and is located at the 3 Rivers Mall, in Kelso. Don't ask how this is done, but I verified the location with the service provider, which if my memory is correct, is Quest Communications. As for the alternating #, even the provider couldn't provide any explanation that was comprehendable.

Here is a list of harassing phone calls that I have received over the past year. So many, that we finally had the number disconnected.

I have been getting 3 annoying calls a day from 801-542-3991. It started with strange voice mails, then silence calls with static and typing in the background, some beeps. Here's a suggestion. FCC Consumer & Mediation Specialists are available Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. ET to answer questions and assist in filing complaints. Call toll-free at 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) voice or 1-888-TELL- FCC (1-888-835-5322) TTY. Or, I used the website http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/complaints.html to file mine. Good luck, let's try stop this non-sense.

Hello,

for everyone looking for info on how to stop calls from 727-213-9122, call 1-800-708-2375...its a collection agency named Van Ru located in Florida.

How do I learn more about cell phone unlock codes (FREE)so I can get more out of my cell phone

I am trying to find out when payphones went up to 25 cents in Georgia.

I got this number on my phone like 6 times a day i finally answered and they said push 1 if u want us to send blank push 2 if u want us to blank than push 3 if u really want us to blank. What the heck is this? This joke is getting out of hand. Can someone please find out about this cuz im going to the police to find out more. This is one sick joke and someone needs to do something about this!

I got 2 calls from this number tonite. I ignored it bcuz i didn't know the number. I too googled the number and found this site. WTF?

I keep getting calls from this number on my cell, I looked it up on google and it gave me this site, so I guess its not an improtant number, thats for the insite.

Today was my first encounter with this number. Thought it was a friend of mine in Dallas after I did a reverse-look up on it. Turns out it is an A. Watson in the Dallas area of Texas. I missed one call and got about a 1 minute voicemail of silence. I caught it the second time and all I got was silence on the other line. I don't know what is going on right at the moment seeing as to how no one will speak on the other line. If I find out anything else I'll be sure to post and I'd appreciate anyone else posting what they know. Who knows, this could be the new century's greatest mystery. Haha!

Well, you are entitled to your own opinion, but please, no swearing!

I THINK THE WEBMASTER OF THIS SITE IS A REAL F*****G JERK

THIS NUMBER CALLED ONE OF MY FRIENDS THIS MORNING AT AROUND 1:00AM. I GOOGLED IT AND IT CAME UP A. WATSON (I THINK THATS RIGHT) FROM DALLAS TEXAS.

I have missed a call from this number too. Did anyone figure out what is the deal with 214-969-5489?

My friend has gotten harassing calls from this number, too. The guy knows her birthday and what she does for a living. He's also called her parents' home. Has anyone determined if this is a pay phone? Or have you gotten any other info?

I too am getting calls from 214-969-5489,Is this a pay phone and where is it?

Hello, read the post about the # 214-969-5489 . Missed a call from that number this evening and recognized the area code. Figure it could have been someone I hadn't spoken to in a while or something. Anyways, I was just wondering if the previous poster knows if the phone is in a rural location or the city? It would help me figure out if the call was a fluke or someone I might actually know. Thanks.

I keep getting a phone call from a No Caller ID and when I answer the phone all I get is a beeping sound, almost like a fax machine. I have also received a call from 646-405-0233 New York, NY and when I call back it says "levy is not available". I am on the do not call list and have filed a complaint about it. Is there anything else I can do???

How do I obtain a list of #'s dialed from a particular pay phone

does anyone know what this phone number is 646-205-9399? i get calls from it, when i call it back it asks me for an access line number. my son is missing, and i'm hoping he is calling fron this number. if i knew what state the number is from it would provide a lead as to his whereabouts.
please, if you have any info about that number, please relay it! thank you.

We've been getting calls in the middle of the night from payphones, the numbers are 201-939-3470 and 201-599-9099, if anyone knows where exactly these numbers are coming from, I would appreciate a response. All I know is that the first number is coming from somewhere in Rutherford and the second number is coming from somewhere in Oradell. Thanks for your help!

a while ago i had heard this story about a number that would call your phone, and if you were curious enough to call it back, you would die some horrible death exactly seven days after.
nine days ago my roommate sally got a call from this number while she was work, and she called them back once she got home. two days ago she got hit by a bus. :(
three days ago i called the number after i had missed the call while i was showering. i called the number back thinking it was a friend of mine who is staying in california (since its a california area code). it wasn't.
i'm really scared...

I too receive phone calls from 1-800-424-5004!! I went to the gym for 45 minutes and when I returned home I had 7 voice automated messages from them. Five minutes after I was home, they called again so I answered and told them to take me off of their list. They would not tell me who they were and had my last name as my first name-the girl did not speak fluent English. She said she would remove me from the list. It has been two days, and they have continued to call..in fact, I just got off the phone with them again and it is Saturday 9:00am-that's the third time they have called today..I don't know who to report this to (someone that would actually do something about it) Any advice would be appreciated!

We lie we cheat we call you home using fake numbers it can be 000-000-0000 or 206-XXX-XXX we have code names that show up in your Caller Id like Tony Penteria
or Michelle Mon or Lora Lombard. This is to deceive those who have caller ID. Half the time it works, we catch you off guard, then we KNOW we have a good number for catching you. Most of the time if we cant find you we will use a RYAN list and call all your neighbors to see if they have other numbers for you. We also call your relatives numbers if they are still living or your children,your church or just about we think we can find you. We will even Google your name & see if we can come up with ANY leads. After all we are bill collectors & information collectors. Any info we collect to help us get you to start paying works in "our" favor. So if you think that this is deceitfull that we are calling you with a Seatle Washington telephone number when we are actually in Minnesota 800-715-0395 , Call us from any number and we will track you down,especially when you call from a pay phone, we like those the best. Usually they are permanently located,so we know within a few feet of where you are actually standing to make the call. Sorry if your caller id lies to you, its not my fault they rigged the telephone !

Hi Mike,
contact me via email

The number 800-424-5004 is legit. I answered the call, but after reading this web site I refused to give or confirm any information but told them I would call Chase right away to take care of business.

I called the # on the back of my card and spoke to a Chase rep, who informed me she had record of the previous call and my payment balance was not current. They had all the right info, payment history, dates, everything.

I'm taking care of my payment now through www.chase.com
Peace :)

hi im just woundering if some one can tell me sum information on how 2 get a pass coad off my phone. all the settings are in a japan setting. would be very usfull if i get sum info

The area for this number is supposedly Cali, but when i called it back the operator came on saying the number you reached is disconnected, if you feel you reached this message in error, please hang and try your call again. They called me twice at like 11:56pm i noticed that someone else had this same number a couple of days ago, wassup with that?

I get harassing calls from 214 969 5489 I know the general location of this payphone and who is calling. I am very concerned about this person and have a restraining order against him. If he calls from a pay phone closer to my home is there a way to trace the location that is free or not too expensive?

i have been getting called from the number 727 213 9122 when i pick up there is no answer but when i try callin back the number is not in service that is really weird!!! does any one know where that number is coming from??

Says its Sturner Klein on my caller ID. called it back from my blocked cell and there was a recorded msg that said, no worries, we were attempting to contact you about one of your subscriptions, we'll call you later... Not true as i have no subscriptions listed with the number they called. Also on the DO NOT CALL LIST. what will we do if they start selling or even giving or cell numbers away

I'm responding to Erin in Indianapolis. I've been receiving the same annoying phone calls. When I call back the message says it can't take any more messages. The mailbox is full. I filed a complaint on the do not call registry. Hopefully it will stop the annoying phone calls. If you haven't registered go to www.donotcall.gov. Telemarketers are not supposed to call anyone on that list. I hope this information helps you.

I just got a ONE ringer and hit star 69 and it as this number. I see people are saying it is prepaid calling card. I do have some old debt.. I wonder if someone is suing me too??

I've been receiving many calls frm this number. when i googled, i saw ppl writing tht it was a scam. i called back and told the lady on the other end tht i would be reporting to the polics. she got a little nervous. when i told her tht i was recording the conversation, she said tht it is against comapny policy and she would have to hang up. I said I would be pleased if she did and tht I was going to the police anyway. But when I called an authentic Chase bank customer service, the agent told me that the numbers are authentic. I dont know what to believe!!!

Im probably not on the right forum, but I am looking for a way to reverse search a cell phone number.....Do any of you know of a site, program, or anything to do this that doesnt cost $125.00 like the sites I seem to find using Google?

Hi All:

Recently, I purchased a payphone based upon the Ernest Telecom 7D1 motherboard for my telephone museum. The phone works, but I want to be able to change a number of defaults in the phone. The phone will not be used for revenue, only on the local musum system for demonstration purposes.

Now there is a program put out by Ernest, TeleLink, but it is very expensive, and for a one time use, it would make no sense to pay the amount wanted for their program. Is there another program which may be used to program the 7D1 or 7D3 boards?

Also, I would love to find a copy of the documentation for the board!

I got the same phone call from the number above and when I called back no one was on the other line

I received a call on my cell phone from this number about a week ago. Caller asked if it was ***, the name of a company I work for. Male asked to speak with co's owner and when I told him owner wasn't available but could I take a msg he so, "Noooooooooo." in a very strange voice, laughed and hung up. Although my cell phone is a business phone the co. he asked for is not the owner of the cell phone but another co. I also work for. Ok, gets weirder here ... today i got a call from the same number on my land line at home! Caller only said, "yes," again in a strange voice. Anyone have any ideas?

This number has also called me every day for the past week. It shows as "800 number" on called ID. You can't call it back and get a person (all I got was a recorded "good-bye").

I answered today and got "Simon" from iauctions.com. He claimed I signed up for information on how to sell on eBay and he would send me a kit and access to purchase items at up to 90% off for a small shipping fee. I don't think so!

So guys, you're not missing anything inportant.

This person called my house, and asked for my dad. Now I'm 16 years old. I acted like my dad. And said, "Who's speaking? And she stated her name, and asked for my dad. I asked, "What company is this." And she kept askin who was she speaking with. I kept responding by saying, "You call my house, and I'm asking who and what company is this, and you keep asking for who u'r speaking with. No sense at all. If you call someone, they have the permission to ask where and who's calling. Not the person who called. I called back and it said that it was Customer Support and to give an account number. Buuulls***. Ain't no company named Customer support. Thank God I found this site.

A friend of ours just called me from a pay phone on Kerr Lake in NC. 415-656-1073 is what showed up on the caller ID. I was intrigued enough to Google it but not enough to thouroughly research it. I work in the telecom industry and would say that ANSWERS provided what seems the most logical answer to this mystery. I know for a fact that the name & number for caller ID info is transmitted from a field on that phone's account. It can be programmed to say anything. I would assume that the utilities commission would have some sort of regulation on this but the fact remains that you cannot believe everything you read. Caller ID can be used as a guide but I wouldn't stake my life, or even the validity of a relationship, on it... EVER.

I need to know how to access voice messages on a Verizon Wireless if I don't know the passcode.

I got a (wrong number) call from 801-542-3991. The caller had the attitude of a bill collector.

Lately,(206) 278-0028 is on my caller ID.Google says it's a telemarket #. My number is the Do Not Call list,how is this call getting through?

Thank you
Bobbi

My home phone is used as a business line. We have received a few calls from the above number. When I answer, the male voice asks for my husband by name. He seems to know what line of business he's in and has requested his service before hanging up.

I keep getting calls from 208-327-1751. My caller ID identifies the caller as Sturner Klein. They call 6 to 10 times a day. Anyone know who they are? Thanks!

I have been receiving 100's of prank calls from a pay phone. I know it is in the cleveland area and the number is 216-271-2008. PLEASE can someone tell me the location of this phone or how I can get it.

These people have called me on VOIP (000-000-0000) on average 6-8 times per day. At first, there was a hangup whenever I picked up. Now, there is a staticky message from Justin Smart, a down-home sounded fellow. "This is Justin Smart, and I'm with Allied Interstate. I've been trying to reach you for a few days now, but I just can't seem to get you on the phone. Please call back at....."

Yeah, whatever. I have written them two letters offering a payment plan. I have indicated that I refuse to deal with them over the phone and that any communication must be in writing. I did get an offer of settlement, which I promptly declined in another letter. I did send a check with that letter for $50. On it, I indicated that acceptance of the check constituted acceptance of the offer for payment arrangements made in my July 17 letter. The check has been cashed with the UCC 1-207 language stamped all over it. The calls seem to have stopped this weekend too. We'll see how it goes.

I also fired off letters to the company that had bought my debt, Sherman Acquisitions. See, by refusing any payment less than $300 and by not accepting payments by mail, Allied is violating what lawyer-types refer to as a fiduciary duty to Sherman. Their job is to get money for Sherman, but they have some sort of commission system working where they don't get the big bucks for taking lesser payments. So they are violating their duty to their client to get their money for them.

The bottom line is....know your rights. Keep good records, and try to negotiate, IN WRITING to settle your debts. Send all correspondence registered mail (they made a curly doodle as the signature on the return postcard-- I thought that was a classy touch). Also let your creditor (original creditor or company that bought the debt) know that you are trying to pay them, but Allied won't take your money and is making unrealistic demands of you. If they get messages of this sort from enought people-- they'll hopefully stop using Allied.

Also, there are several sites out there that list the statute of limitations on debts. Here are a couple:

http://www.fair-debt-collection.com/SOL-by-State.html

http://www.cardreport.com/laws/statute-of-limitations.html

http://www.creditinfocenter.com/rebuild/statuteLimitations.shtml (this one has good explanations too!)

Best of luck to everyone!

Okay, I am a computer expert in about anything and everything you think of. First of all, most of the callback phone numbers on your caller ID aren't even real. However, there is a real number behind that call. When you make a phone call to anywhere to anywhere the number that it tracks isn't the phone number. People like me can very easily get that callback number to say anything we want. in fact, I could paste some of the code to do it right here but I won't. Voice over IP is what these companies are using to pull this scam on us.
I could very easily say my callback number is 911 if I want to and if I am calling a cell phone I can get it to go into emergency which will activate the GPS in it and I can't tell you here what I can do with that. lmfao!
Well anyway, there is a way to track this people!
Every phone call that you make no matter what callback number you use has ONE number that can be used to track it over the networks. I am not going to get technical here with names that you will not understand. However, this number can be used to find out who made the real call. Don't try calling a phone company to get this information. The number will not help you out at all. However the NSA does have a large list of these numbers ILLEGALLY! It is sad that only one company refused to give them these numbers with names.
Back to the subject, to get the point out... Companies could even use YOUR number as a callback number when they call to sell something and your line could be over flooded with calls. They don't, but they could.
This REALLY has to stop. I believe that knowledge is power. Yes, I have a whole lot of power but I don't abuse it.
Anyway, I didn't really think about what I was going to say before I typed all of this so it is a little bit unstructured. I do hope you guys learn a bit on this post for it will likely get deleted for security reasons. They don't want you Americans to get too smart.
If you are having issues with phone calls, try getting a number that has NEVER been used or hasn't been used by anyone else in years. One thing that I have learned is that I only get these calls on home lines. If you call a cell phone company, cell phone companies care a little bit more about you than your local phone company.

Calls from Lora Lombard, Michelle Mon, Tony P. are actually calls from Allied Interstate Seach Collection agency.

THey just signed a big collection agreement with the Department of Education to collect on overdue or non-copperative student loan debt holders. Google Allied Interstate Seach.

Calls come from various number in 206 area code.

I am in South Carolina now. Call me. Thank you once again.

I got a call and didn't know who it was, so I didn't answer. Then, I called the number back and it was an automated message asking for my account number. It didn't say what company it was, just 'customer services', which really puzzled me. Thankfully, I didn't enter anything and decided to search the web and see who's number it was.

Thank goodness I found this site.

Today I recieved a call on my cell (602-000-0000), I looked the # and did not recognize it, my first instinct was to not answer but I did anyway. It appeared that nobody was on the other end of the phone line. Does anyone know anything about this telephone #? I did not call it back for fear I might be calling over seas where the cost of a very short phone call can cost thousands!

Hello. I am jeimi. there are currently 3 different numbers that are calling my "UNLISTED" cell phone number as of right now, and they call me each atleast 3-4 times a day. these phone calls are getting rather annoying, and i want to file a complaint of harrassment, but was told that i cant do anything about just a phone number.

the numbers are:

1-866-396-5718
1-866-396-5717
1-888-341-6575

when i answer the phone, no one is there, and the call is usually disconnected within 5 seconds of me answering the phone. sometimes i can hear a clicking going on in the background, and sometimes its just dead silence. i also dont answer when these numbers call, and currently, my phone is showing that i have 21 missed calls from the 5717 number, 17 missed calls from the 5718 number, and 12 from the 6575 number.

obviously they are not telemarketers, or bills collectors otherwise they weould leave messages or something. can anyone please help me??

I am getting a call on my cell from this # in the morning and afternoons. Any tips so far?

Anon --- Watch your Cell Phone Bill. Yes, they are calling to Verify an *active* line.

im helping a friend find some1 who called from a phone # (905) 577-977). the caller said he was going to kill my friend, his brother and his mother. they called the cops but they they havent done anything yet. i tracked down that it was a payphone in the hamilton area. can some1 give me any information as to its location? thanx.

This number showed Sturgis Klein caller ID. I goggled that name and found several listings suggesting that they are legimate telemarketers. What ever happened with the NOCALL list....obviously it isn't working with them. I intend to report it.

I would like to know if anybody has the universal code for cingular wireless voicemail.

The two numbers you mentioned (720 & 402) Is a prepaid calling card. More than likely att calling card from Walmarts

I just received a call from 951-272-0000 asking to speak to my husband. when i said he wasn't around. They said ok, when i asked who was callin he said David Roy. I asked if my husband would know what it was regarding, he said yes. Then hung up. when I *69 for the number it came back with 951-272-0000. Called it & it's disconnected. I've tracked the number down to belonging to Pacific Bell. & the number itself is out of Corona, CA. But Information says there is no number in their data base. This has got to be some kind of scam going on.

I am a licensed & insured CA Private Investigator. I have an on going case involving a public offical who has recieved over 300 harashing phone calls from pay phones and phone spoofing systems since August of 2005. If you have received such calls of a signifcant number and or filled a formal police of Public Utilities Complaint please e-mail me and include the complaint numbers and agnecy filed with.

Also include what coperation you have or what road blocks you have recieved from the phone companies, law enforcement or regulatory agencies.

If you have the address information on pay phones in the south part of los Angeles beach city areas including San Pedro, Lomita, Long Beach, Torrance and adjacent areas please let me know.

Does anyone know anything about this number. I get calls from this number every so often, and when I dial it back, it doesn't connect. Just curious as to what it's all about.

So someone living at my house has been receiving calls from someone from Discover asking him to call back a number, which is 800-767-1846. It answers as Discover and asks for account number. But during the past few days, he has also been receiving calls at least 3 times per day (they get the machine every time) and it says, "please hold for an important message" and then the person finally gets on the phone and says "hello, hello" to the machine and hangs up. I *69'd it and the number is 801-542-3991. When called, it is a different voice message, but also from Discover.... Why would two different Discover reps be calling back and forth over several days? Help?

i work for macys, and those calls are not fraud or anything bad...it means you have something wrong with your account, or money to be paid on it. dont freak out and close it. answer it, and if nobody is there, call the number back and tell them what happened.

402-517-9978 and 720-587-9978 keeps calling my home. Anyone know anything about it?

206-278-9099 was the number that called my parents today asking for me. I haven't lived there for several years, and as it turns out, it's the second time a number similar to this has called them in the past couple of days (the other being 206-278-9089). "Juan" asked my mom tons of personal questions about where I was living, what my contact information was, do I have a job, etc. Mom didn't tell him anything and said this guy was just really weird and very rude.

On Mom's caller ID, the first number came up as "amy hall" while the second one came up as "lora lombard." The area code is for Seattle-ish, and while these numbers failed to bring up any information on Google, similar numbers brought me to this website which leads me to believe it's all part of the same scam.

Coincidentally, these calls come two weeks after my Google email account was hijacked. Perhaps this is not so coincidental, and I wonder if this has happened to anyone else? I will add a link to my story of the Gmail hijacking below. Cheers everyone.

i am getting phone calls from this number and when i called back its not a working number, i think it should be a telemarketing number.

I being getting phone calls from this number and when i pick up the phone just someone saying What and then hang up on me, and they just keep calling and when i called back to that number it is not a working number

If anyone has a Macy's account close the account right away. They have called me everyday and I haven't picked up the phone yet. Thanks to this message board, I'll pick up the phone, cussing only.

This number keeps calling me at least 10 times a day...when I answer, nobody says anything and they hang up. When I call back it rings and rings and goes to a voicemail that says coorporate office and to leave your name and number. I am also getting calls from 866-396-5718 and when I call it back, it is busy. Also from 888-341-6575 and 646-405-0233, both of which also just hang up when I answer and never leave a message. It's getting SOO old. If anyone else has had trouble with the 866 numbers or knows what it is, please let me know!!

I am receiving at least 5 or more calls a day from this number... 888-341-6575 I keep waiting for someone to respond. Someone responded today!!! Women with a foreign accent claiming she is a EBAY Web Specialist offering me EBAY Power Selling Information. Claiming all of this information is "FREE" (Keep in Mind Nothing is "Free") Claiming I could Power Sell Product from their Warehouse for "FREE". See verified my address and then asked for a CREDIT CARD for shipping. I replied NO I was not giving out my "CREDIT CARD INFORMATION" she IMEDIATELY Disconnected the line. She was calling from an inside with lots of back round noise. "BEWARE and Please Don't Give anyone Calling like this Your Credit Card Information" In my opinion this is a MAJOR Scam I feel if was a reputable company they would've offered COD.

I have been getting "data calls" on my cell phone from this number at least once a day. I'm puzzled because previous people who have posted about this have said it is a collection agency. I'm wondering if they are trying to fax me something. I have tried to send a text msg and to call the number, but I always get a msg that the number isn't in service. Any suggestions as to what to do? It is so frustrating to say the least.

Hello,
Anyone gotten calls from 800-679-0336? Today we gotten a call from this number. Here how's the caller id came up as.
"7-26 1:52pm
TOLL FREE
800-679-0336?"
Does anyone have any clue what that number is? I look it up on 411.com under reserve number and I didn't find it. Please e-mail me if you know.
Thanks!

Just so alot of you with Verizon Cell phones will know. Verizon sued a telemarketing in Miami for making calls to Verizon cell phones. A recent settlement was reached where the telemarketing company has agreed to not make anymore calls to Verizon cell phones.

like so many of you on this message board, i too am getting daily calls from 208-327-1751, which shows up as "Idaho" and is unlisted at whitepages.com.

i heard about a way to make telemarketer calls made from computers stop. i dialed a phone number that i knew to be invalid and recorded the tones that play in the beginning. when i get a call from a number that looks suspicious or i know its from a telemarketer, i play those tones back into the phone right when i answer, then hang up. now i don't get nearly as many calls anymore.

basically what those tones are is a signal for computers to let them know that the number doesn't exist, so it deletes your number from their database and disconnects the call.

i suppose even if the call isn't from a computer and it's a person on the other end, the tones would make them think the number is wrong or just annoy them to pieces (LOL) and eventually they wouldn't call anymore, but i don't know.

I have also been getting calls from 646-405-0233 for the past few days. When I call back nothing happens

This number is a FRAUD! It's a new type of phone "phishing" (as in fishing for your infortmation). They've called me like 20x a day and I was ignoring them at first assuming it was crediors (my Chase cc is overdue, oops!)but I finally answered and they hung up the first two times and eventually asked for my account # and SSN#... I told the man that I thought he was scamming me and asked for an Employee ID number, he said he was unable to give me that information over the phone, yet he was asking for my account #. He knew a lot of info about me like my mother's maiden name the last for of my social but when he said the balance that was due on my account it was wrong! I bank online and I know what's due and he was WAY off! Hang up on these people, and record the converstion if you can. I can't get them to leave me alone but I know that they aren't real because I called chase and they said that if someone from chase contacts me they will have my WHOLE account number and give me their name and employee ID number. BE CAREFUL!!!

This guy got my cell phone off a truck I had for sale last August. He still calls me from various pay phones and is disgusting. Two numbers that he calls from quite often and I cannot get an actual address on are 615-385-9194 and 615-298-9718 and 383-9806. I have tried everything to get an actual street address where these pay phones are so I can watch for him, if he shows up. Can anyone help me find out about addresses for these?

Thanks

I had a missed call from this number and the caller ID identified the caller as missed call from PM? Where this number is from or from who is a mystery to me. I called back and it sent me to a voice mail that was full and was unable to leave a message.???

Mary Jane - CALL A LAWYER!!!! Someone outside LA. in the hopes that they too are not corrupted. Cuz once the PD and FD are in it there could be some local lawyers too. All so GO TO THE PAPERS ALL OF THEM. Email your story to CBS, NBC, FOX you name it email/call them now. That is what I would do.

Caller claimed to be representing E-Bay Auction. Wanted to send FREE DVD (pay Shipping) on course to learn how to sign up and bid on E-Bay. Was fishing for charge card number and did not speak very good English.

Macy's fraud department can be reached at 800.884.9168. I also urge everyone who has been getting calls from 727-556-5492 to file a report at https://complaint.ic3.gov/.

Hi!
This afternoon someone call me from 781-444-7989. The caller ID reads
" 7-24-06 12:46 p.m.
Massachusetts
781-444-7989"
Does anybody have any ideas who it is? All it just said on caller id is Massachusetts. Has anyone gotten phone calls from this number?
Thanks!
Chris

My bad; (801) 542-3991 is NOT Discover. Sorry!!!!

(801) 542-3991 belongs to "Discover Card."

Along with filing complaints with donotcall.gov, I've also filed a report with the FBI.

From what I've gathered on this list, either someone in Federated Department Stores is trying to commit fraud, or their data got stolen.

I have received 13 calls in the past 3 days from this number. At first I just ignored it and they left no messages. Then my friend answered and said I wasnt in, they then asked her if she had a chase account and told her they were calling me in regards to my 'personal business account' so she told them that didnt make any sense! :) She got him to give her his name(not real I assume) which was Mike Hernandez and wanted me to call him back at 877-227-4249.
I am going to call chase and let them know as well!

I have been trying to trace the owner of this cell number..how can I find out who it belongs to and where they live...i have been taken for through a internet site...the number is 1 709 746-529* in st.john's with Telus I will pay to have this number traced!!!! someone help i will five you the final digit.

wat does it mean wen someone is pocking a crow bar at a pay phone what are the doing and is that were the quarters are at the bottom corner

I have received calls to my cell phone that were private name private number, were actually pay phone hang ups. that just peeves me off111111111111111111

OK this is very scary, I got another call from the 888-341-6575 and this time when I answered it there was digital static unitl I hung up 1 min later. This is the first time I heard ANYTHING since the calls started over 2 weeks ago.

I keep getting calls from #800-424-5004 non stop through out the day and most the time they just hang up . Finally today I called that same # back n write away it asked for a account # .I pushed 0 for live help . I got a lady who had a heavy accent and asked for my chase account # , I told I dont have one ,she sounded surprised ,then said you dont have anychase cards .I told her NO. Then I told her according to a website that theyre a scam and not to call anymore or Ill report them. She started to rush me off I asked well do you have the # im calling from to take it off , Well she sure did she repeated my phone # back and sounded all nervous and hung up.

I called verizon They're not much help but they said to dial call trace ( *57 )write after the call . but you have to let the phone ring at least 2 times or more when they're calling n do the trace 1 time after the call but 2-3 traces so u can bring the info later to your local police dep. Thats the only way to get them verizon said.

I get over 6 calls a day for the past week on my cell from (888) 341-6575. I never make it in time to answer. When I call back it's just busy. I also get calls from 646-405-0233
right after the 888 #. Also when I call back just a busy signal. This is a scam from what I have read on these numbers! BE CAREFUL! How can we report them! My parents are getting these calls on there home #!!

I am receiving the same call for the last three weeks several times a day, when my husband answered, they stated they were from Macy's Department Store. I had just recently opened an account at Macy's and they are trying to get account information. Also, the times that it has gone to the answering machine, all that I receive is a static noise.

Hope this helps.

I just started getting these calls and when I sought to find out the source of the calls, I was shocked to find this site. Whoever started this, THANK YOU!

At least you got someone I get nothing and I have been getting at least 10 calls daily! I wish they would stop

got a call from some mexican gal. Indicated she was with Ebay and wanted to send info on how to sell on ebay. Said the info was free but I had to pay $4.95 shipping. I said I would send a check and she stated they did not accept checks.Told her I would not give her a credit card # or bank account, she said F---you and hung up.

sure made my day.

I am so glad I found this site. I started getting calls from this number on my cell phone yesterday and they have not stopped. I too am getting like 20 calls a day. I have been letting it go to voicemail and they leave a message telling me to call back at another number. They do not say where they are calling from and when I call the number back, it just says enter your account number or stay on the line. I do have a Chase account but now I know just to ignore the calls. Thanks!!!

This number is a fraud! It's a new type of phone "phishing" (as in fishing for your infortmation). I just got off the phone with Chase and they are having a terrible problem with these people. Do NOT give them ANY infomation over the phone. They've called me like 20x a day and I was ignoring them at first assuming it was crediors (my Chase cc is overdue, oops!)but I finally answered and they hung up the first two times and eventually asked for my account # and SSN#... Chase would never ask for any information over the phone, if they call you they should have your account info. THIS NUMBER IS A SCAM, HANG UP ON THEM OR IGNORE THEM!!!!!

we have been getting the same calls. My search has it billed back to SBC Telecom of Utah. I used Dogpile.com to track them down. Happy hunting

I've gotten a call from these people in regards to my chase account asking for money. When I tried to say I didn't have my financial information in front of me (I was in my office) the guy tried to pressure me. Using common sense working in an industry where it's easy to steal that kind of information I asked

"Is there a number where I can call you back at?" and they would not give it to me. The only thing they kept asking me was to confirm that I would transfer money and they had my information already.

I did get them back when they finally called my work line and I recorded the call and let them know that their call was being recorded... They hung up and I haven't been called back since.

I found out reading this forum that this number might be to a compan called Accent Energy c/s# 800.928.7775 which I called and told them the issue. I was told by the C/S Rep that 888-341-6575 might be one or their telemarketing numbers and was more that happy to put me on their do no call list. Hope this helps

I too have been getting these calls at least 20-30 a day on my Verizon cell phone as well no one is there when I answer I have 10-15 voicemails with "dead air". I have tried calling the number back but it will not go thru.I have been happening for the last 2 weeks. Some help would be great. THANKS :)

HELP CAN SOME ONE MAKE THESE A HOLES STOP FROM CALLING IT HAPPENS AT LEAST 20 TIMES OR DAY AND NITE THE CELL PHONE COMPANY SAYS WE CANNOT BLOCK THE NUMBER AND THE LAN LINE PHONE COMPANY SAYS CALL YOUR CELL PHONE COMPANY WHO DO I CONTACT TO MAKES THESE CALLS STOP? THANK YOU SINCERELY B WALLACE

where is the pay phone with the number 248-449-3724 located? plz send back A.S.A.P>!!!!!!!

This is the same number that has called our house 10X today! 3x we answered but no one was there. 7X we let the voice mail get it. Last time I called them and got a middle eastern woman who said it was ok that I didn't have my acc#, but to give her my SS#. I told her flat out hell no and asked who she was and she said Chase. I said I don't have a good feeling giving her the # because I already had one foreigner try getting it today and she told me to call the number on the back of the card, which I did. And I was right - she was *not* from Chase.
This is the same day I find out the people who've been harassing us for three months (calling for some other lady) is some kind of foreign 'financial service' - and only found THAT out because my provider called them. When asked if they had our number on file the guy lied, his Mexican accent got heavier and he asked if our provider would give him our SS# so he can help figure out the problem.

They called again, this time saying they were Chase bank. It was a man with a middle-eastern accent. I told him to go f**k himself and hung up.

For three months we've been getting a call from foreign people requesting a certain lady and I've told them way back then they had the wrong person, changed my voicemail so they'd get the hint and even tried selective call reject but mostly let voicemail pick it up. But they use different 800 #s and I can never find them on reverse phone lookup - I'm also getting tired of calls early in the AM and having to always delete the messages. Today, I had it and called the number since this airhead couldn't even stutter out who she was calling, but left the number & ext #. Couldn't get ANY info out of them as to who/what they were so called our provider. They called them and were told they are a 'financial service" with a VERY strange name and told our prvider they don't have our number on file, which we all know is a lie. DUH, but then this guy wanted Knology to give him our SS#'s!!!
Within minutes of ripping into this guy and hanging up with him we started getting the weird 800 calls where no one is there when we answer the phone, but if voicemail gets it, there's an important message from a cc place and to call back. Well, I called it and sure enough, ANOTHER foreign lady answers & I tell her I don't have my acc# and instead of asking for my name & stuff she asks for my SS#. I refused of course because I'm not stupid, but she tells me to go look at the back of my Chase card and look at the number & call from there. So I did. And found out that lady was NOT FROM CHASE! I've had ten calls from that same stupid number today and I plan on seeing what i can do to nail them. Twice in one day I had foreigners asking for my SS#.

I have been receiving calls from this number for about a month. i don't pick up i just let the phone ring and let it go into voicemail. sure, i have plenty of messages telling me to call but, i heard of a recent scam. someone calls you, once you pick up, one way or another they are able to use you line to hook up to the internet. They use your phone line and the phone company charges you. Had that happened a few month ago. Not sure if this was the number that i picked up when that happened, but to avoid problems i just don't pick up.

Noticed a couple posts about this phone number after I Googled it to find out some info. Called Bell, and was told it was registered to Sprint Canada, and was given their Customer Service # of (416)-496-1644. Calls to this may bring an end to the constant calling from the 905-577-9770 number.

818.707.1473 jackielapin@cs.com VONAGE DIGITALVOICE GOES DIRECT; "CALLS" ON INTER/MEDIA ADVERTISING TO LAUNCH TV CAMPAIGN Agency's Campaign for Fast Growing Broadband Phone Company Marks the First DRTV Effort in its Market Segment ENCINO, CA, January 6, 2002 - Vonage DigitalVoice, one of the nation's fastest growing
providers of phone service over broadband, will launch its first direct response TV advertising
campaign beginning January 27. The effort, handled by Inter/Media Advertising, is poised to be
the first DRTV thrust in Vonage's market segment.

California-based Inter/Media was selected by Vonage, which is headquartered in Edison, New
Jersey, over R.J. Palmer (New York), A. Eicoff (Chicago), Horizon Media (New York) and
NexGen Media (New York). Inter/Media is a fully integrated media and advertising company that
uniquely blends direct response advertising with general market techniques.

"We picked Inter/Media because the company is skilled and passionate about direct response
TV," said Dean Harris, Vonage's Vice President of Marketing. "The Principals demonstrated a
clear understanding of the value of short-form media, and provided a very well-thought out
media plan that makes them an excellentpartner for Vonage in this venture."
Vonage, which is marketing to both consumers and small businesses, has completed more than
5 million calls over its network since launching the service in April of 2002. The company
competes against a number of other new providers in the emerging Voice-over-Internet-Protocol
(VoIP) category, but primarily views its competitors as the traditional local and long distance
phone giants.

Sold directly to consumers and small businesses through www.vonage.comand select resellers, Vonage enables customers to use their existing telephone to make high-quality calls
to any telephone in the world over any high-speed Internet connection. Simple and easy to use,
Vonage offers free unlimited local and long distance calling including the most popular features
for a flat monthly rate.

Using the latest technology, Vonage DigitalVoice sets the standard for the new generation of
phone service with residential and business calling plans that include--at no additional cost:
voicemail, caller ID, call waiting, call forwarding, call transfer, call return (*69), caller ID block
(*67), repeat dialing, any area code selection, international call block, bandwidth saver, Web-
based account management, voicemail retrieval and real-time inbound/outbound calling activity.
International calling is provided at significantly reduced rates. -more-

IF YOU GET A CALL FROM THIS NUMBER BUG THE >>>> OUT OF THESE PEOPLE-THEY KNOW WHO THEY ARE, THEY ARE AFFILIATED WITH THEM. Federated Department Stores, Inc. Media - Jim Sluzewski, 513-579-7764 Investor - Susan Robinson, 513-579-7780
CALL THEM 10 TIMES A DAY AND GIVE THEM A TASTE OF THEIR OWN MEDICINE!!!!

This number has been calling my house saying that there the brick but I know there not any one figures out the number reply bck plss...I tried to call it back but it is goes dial tone??????????

I had been receiving phone calls (2 or 3 a day) on my cell phone from this number. When I tried to answer there was nobody there and when I called the number I got a recording stating it was not a valid number. Thanks to your help and information on the Van Ru credit corp I was able to call them at 800 number (Florida branch), and told them about the problem. They removed my number from their system and I'm no longer getting phone calls. (I've only had this number for a couple months so it wasn't me they were looking for). Just wanted to say thanks to your website for providing me with the info I couldn't find anywhere else!

I get calls from this number about once every 2 days. I have never answered it. I never get a voicemail. I have no idea what it is. But it would be in your best interest to not even bother. And btw if you get a number from another country it will usually start with 0 and it is a scam. I got one they said it was from the government but the guy could barely speak english and I hung up. I looked it up and it is a big scam so they can steal your money.

I have had this number calling my house about 4 times since last week- and I havent picked it up b/c I dont want to talk to a telemarketer... its a royal pain in the a!## The next time they call- I am telling them off!

Hello,
Today at 4:34pm someone call from 801-437-3150. Here's how the caller Id came up as.
" 7-16 4:34pm
Private Name
801-437-3150."
The rings differently if it's out of the area. Does anyone of you get this same call. Please let me know. I didn't answer because it could of be telemarketing.
Thanks!
Chris Flynn

To Heather from Spokane
I have the same thing happening here, exactly the same. Did you recently agree to recieve a free trial issue from cooks illustrated at cooks.com, or just sign up for the email newsletter so you could access the recipe archive? Sturner & Klein is a magazine telemarketing firm out of MD but with reps throughout the US including ID. Just trying to figure this out because it is annoying as h*ll. Thanks.

I live in Arknasas & recieved a call this morning on my cell phone from 423-926-0014. I missed the call & tried to call back several times & it was busy. My sister lives in TN; & I asked her about the number and she does not know who it is either. Any search I have done on it shows that it is from Johnson City, TN. One search says it is a payphone. That is all the information I can get on it. Does anyone have any other information or idea as to who/whom this may be.

I receive a call from 208-327-1751 a few times a day. When I answer they hang up and they won't leave a message on the answering machine. It shows up as Sturner Klein on my caller ID. I called the number back and it says thank you for calling Nova One. It says they are just contacting me about a subscription I have and not to worry about the call. It tells you to press 1 if you wish to leave a message but hangs up when you press 1. Very annoying!

I just got this phone number two weeks ago and this number 847-376-3333 keeps calling me. I refuse to answer the phone cause they never leave a message or say anything when the answering machine comes on so f*** them. If I find out who it is I will fly there and kick there ass for annoying me so much.. Thats a promise.

Every so often this number comes up on my phone...Today someone (an east Indian??) was on the line asking for someone (couldn't understand who). Said he had the wrong number...No s***! Anyone else who posted this number have any answers?

I just got from this on my phone too. It was an automated message asking about how I wanted to receive a telegram and press four if I want to unsubscribe. Well I pressed four but for some reason I don't think it is going to stop the phone calls. Has anyone else gotten this?

Vonage:

Argument against an aquisition of VG (Not rated) 27-Jun-06 02:46 pm Many people on this board have made assorted arguments regarding someone buying Vonage at various valuations.

Before anyone made an aquisition take into account the following.

1. The Capital Costs of a VoIP infrastructure could be built for less then $3m.

2. Even assuming you built 5 sets of this infrastructure to support redundancy and backup say capex of $15m.

3. If you are already in the telecoms or associated services business your 'below the line' expenditure for support staff and call centre staff is going to be a marginal expense.

4. Public 'awareness' now of VoIP is substantially higher then it was 1 year ago.

5. 1.6m (currently) or say even 2m customers is nowhere near critical mass in the markets covered (USA, Canada, Europe). These markets alone account for nearly 800m people, so penetration so far is less then .25% of the target market.

6. Given the above why buy VG? You're buying potential but poor execution so far (IMHO). Any company with the willingness to spend less then $25m on infrastructure and with an existing support mechanism can probably advertise more effectively to buy this market.

7. I'm sorry but any advertising campaign that doesn't have 1-800-4-VONAGE or a similar number to call cannot be serious, this is an unbelievably fundemental mistake.

I hope all the stock holders get their cash out, but I certainly wouldn't rely on an aquisition.

For the record I have no stock or positions in VG or any other listed telecoms company.

402-930-3659 been calling me and upon answering it starts ringing like I dialed them up????

turns out it is InfoUSA trying to fill up there database with free info from suckers that answer and wait for the other end to pick up......

the # 404-461-9978 is from someone who is breaking up there days looking into there family tree ...harmless...there will bend your ear if you let them ....

it is a lonely old woman,
sorry, eizus

I received a call from this number asking for a reference on a family member. He asked that I confirm address and phone number, only after did i realize i had given to a low life.

Does anyone know who this number belongs to.

this morning i had two unanwsered phone calls from this number on my work: 001604550700

yesterday i had it from a different number with prefix from Spain.

what is this?

When I answered this call it was an automated message asking if I wanted to accept a telegram, have it mailed or unsubcribe...

Have recieved 2 calls today, no response when I answer and only busy signal when I try to call it back

I keep getting calls from this number.....

I tried to call it earlier after I posted this and it just kept ringing. No one ever answered.

I just got a missed call from 423-926-0014 too! Anyone know who it is?

I just had a missed call from this number. Tried to call it back...busy signal. Anyone know about it yet?

I just got a call from this number too. I had missed the call but I guess I was the lucky one to not get a voice mail. I honestly didn't think anything was going to come up when I typed this number on Google. I'll keep an eye out for this number from now on and let my friends know too.

i too got a call from this number it was a guy who said his name was david...he was asking if i was alone...very creepy

Is 1-800-424-5004 legitimate or fraud? I have received approximately 20 calls/day from this number. When I answer they hang up. When I let it go to voicemail they ask to speak with me as though someone answered the phone. The voicemail messages all seem to be from people with Indian accents. I called the number back and they asked for my chase bank account number.

Hey Robin,
That's for finding the phone number that has been calling our house.
Thanks,
Chris Flynn

>>"I got a call from this number on my cell phone.. and i missed the call... i then recieved a voicemail.. and it was some girl who sounded like she was drunk.. saying she loved me and was gonna see me tomorrow.. it was really weird... can anyone tell me were it was from... or what prepaid phone company..."

Dude, she was drunk and called a wrong number. She doesn't love you, she'll never have sex with you, and you're going to die alone.

thanks to buddy for the info that this number is a land based line from vancouver. i already searched the bulls*** sites and found that out, thank you none the less for helping. all i need is an address to this number so i can knock. i hope it's not a payphone. i'm sincere in this request and if anyone can even point me in the right direction to a reputable service. one online firm took $30 from my card and gave me nothing i don't already know. this is the last chance before calling the police and making a mess.
thanks to everyone
andrew

apples. i haven't heard from her in two weeks and the family is getting worried. can anyone please provide a location for the last call she made to my mom? i'm gonna fly across canada to knock on the door.

I have been having someone call me on my cell phone from 423-926-0014. All I can find out about this number is that it was dialed from somewhere in Johnson City, TN. When I go to call it back to see who it is that is calling, I get the message on my phone that says "user busy", anyone who can give me some insight on this would be greatly appreciated.

Using *69 I've hear numbers identified as 0000000000what does this mean?

800-699-3923 is Qwest

Lukily, I haven't received as many calls from this number as previous posters. Whether this # really is Chase or not, here is what Chase Bank has posted on their own website:

"Don't give out financial information such as checking account and credit card numbers-and especially your social Security number-on the phone unless you initiate the call and know the person or organization you're dealing with. Don't give that information to any stranger, even one claiming to be from Chase."

If you owe them money, pay your bill, but do it through mail, secure website, or call the customer service number on the back of your card/statement.

Okay -- I think I've found the right place... I am so stressed!!!

I am constantly getting calls from a number in NJ... 973-881-9869... it is a payphone... but I am all the way in LA... How do I find out WHERE specifically in NJ this payphone is? I've Tried Intellis - but it just comes up as a payphone in Paterson -- no street - business name... nothing!

HELP!! PLEASE!!

thanks!!

Have you ever made prank phone calls to pay phones? Just get a number from a pay phone from this website or from the pay phone directly and call it at home. Eventually someone will answer and just mess with their minds and they can't find you because pay phones don't have caller ID. Heres one: Leave a pen or something at the pay phone. Then call it when someone answers say, "See the pen next to the phone. If you touch that pen the phone will blow up." then just hang up. Scare them a bit.

I GOT A CALL FROM THEM WHEN I WAS AT WORK AND I CANT STAND IT WHEN THESE STRANGE NUMBERS ARE ON MY CELL, IT KINDA CREEPY

i have gotten a few calls from this #, no response when i answer, and a busy tone when i call back. i occasionally get calls from random out of state #'s with the same outcome. don't know who or why , they never respond or leave a message. i can only speculate that the perpetrators are getting this info from internet use, why they call i don't know YET! i generally just don't ever answer a call i don't recognize , if they really want me, they will just leave a message. okay, done b***hing for now. hope myself and any of u out there w/ the same problem get relief.

Hello,
Here's how it comes up on Caller ID:
" 7-1-2006 10:00am
TOLL FREE
800-699-3923"
Anybody have any idea who that maybe?
Please e-mail me.
Thanks!
Chris Flynn

They called again, this time saying they were Chase bank. It was a man with a middle-eastern accent. I told him to go f**k himself and hung up.

i'm receiving 5+ calls/day from this number...message is always loud static. number belongs to FACS SOUTH in clearwater fla...federated stores, etc. i called them 6 times...they have no ide what i'm talking about.
TODAY...a woman called...asked me to call back,,,and her accent was so heavy i couldn't understand the number she said. phone showed FACS SOUTH/727-556-5492 as caller.
when i googled the number today...found this website...and i see there are many others w/ this problem. i'm gonna call the phone co. tomorrow...
this HAS to stop.

I gotten a few calls from a 613-479-9995. I know it is from Ontario Canada but I don't know where at in Ontario. I think it's coming from a pay phone but when I call the number back I get a message saying that this number cannot receive incoming calls. Can anyon tell me how to find out the location of this number?

Just received the same phone call from 973-279-0000 which is a NJ pay phone. Here in Wi no collectors or sales person's may call on Sunday. Have had this call before.

My husband and I have received numerous calls from this number for a week or so, the most recent 8:59am, 2 July 2006, with the calls starting as early as 7:30am. When I called the number all I got was a recording to select English or Spanish and to enter my account number. If the call was legit, how would anyone know what account number to enter when they do not know who called them? I went to search the toll free number and was brought to this sight. I am glad I did, because now I know this number is a fraud.

My husband and I have also been recieving telephone calls from this number. Long story short - We went to Chase Bank and talked to the Bankers. The people calling from this number are frauds.

If you talk to the people who are calling you, do not give them any personal information. Insist on not doing business over the phone and tell them you will go to the bank to deal with the issues they bring up. They will not be happy and will try to keep you on the phone, insisting that they are from Chase Bank. Hang up.

Chase told us that this is something that they've been having trouble with lately. I hope they fix it soon!

(801) 484-1107 - This number belongs to a company called "Public Interest Communications," which can be found at: http://www.pubintcom.com/employment.html
I too received calls from this number.

I just got one of these calls. They have been trying to reach me for a few days, calling about 5 times a day. Tonight they called and a relative picked up. She recognized the voice and yelled down to me that it was the people who had been trying to reach me. When I picked up, I heard a click and they had hung up. I did a *69 and found this number and typed it into Google and it brought me here. It looks like they've been at it for a while.

i didn't realize that i too was recieving this call from this number also until i looked it up on this website. i'm not going to answer it. and they haven't left me a mesg. yet.

Why the hell can't the phone companies make all calls indentifiable, instead of "Unknown name" what a bunch of crap. I am sick and tired of aswering the phone and there is no one there. This crap better not wake me up tonight. I hate the phone companies and the idiots who regulate them.

I'm glad I found this board: I have received 16 calls from this number just this afternoon alone! I answered once and there wasn't anyone there - they left a message but it was just muddled background noise. No real message. I just put my cell number on the do not call list - and it's been quiet for nearly an hour. Fingers tighly crossed.

I use this nifty thing call reverse phone .. type the number in and if you're lucky the search engine will find it.. some numbers are unlisted .. or use yahoo with the quotes eg. "***-***-****"

hopefully it helps some of you..

Caller ID is a marvelous thing, if you don't recognize a number, don't answer the phone .. I have received a call that I don't recognize as well and it gets me no where, it has to be an automated gadget cause it's not advanced enough to leave a mesage on voice mail... i just won't bother with it if it ever calls again .. maybe it's ET ... :|

/ON Canada

888-341-6575 - Received calls from this number for the last 2 weeks, usually daily. Never made it to the cellphone in time..finally talked to someone there today - they are Accent Energy, asking to talk about switching suppliers for energy services through National Grid. I do not have service with NG anymore and notified them of that. They wanted to know who I had service through now. I refuse to supply them with that info.

About a month ago, I posted about Asset Acceptance.
Here's yet another number from them....

First Call 5/20/2006 9:13 AM from 480-403-6400
Second Call 6/27/2006 5:38 PM from 800-832-8587

They can call as many times as they want.
I never answer numbers that aren't in my phone book.
I'd be curious as to how many times they're going to
call before they realize all they'll ever get is
voice mail. If they aren't courteous to leave a
message detailing what the call is about, then I'm
not going to call them back.

So I have recieved 4 calls in the past 6 hourse from this same number. Unable to call it back and when I pick up the phone it disconnects. I called my phone service and they are unable to block this incomming call. So any suggestions.
The phone number is 888-341-6575.

Is it possible that I could recieve a call from a pay phone in South Carolina and have it show up on my cell caller ID as a Las Vegas number? I had a friend who was supposedly in South Carolina this weekend call me from a pay phone and the number showed up on my phone as a 702 area code and when I called the number back it was a pay phone at the lobby of the Mirage hotel in Las Vegas. I noticed that all of the South Carolina pay phones you have listed on here show that they don't accept incoming calls, I thought that might have something to do with it. Anyone have any info?

I've been watching these boards for years. It's interesting to see the gradual shift away from people asking about Payphones, locations of payphones and the use of payphones towards things such as cell-phone voicemail, text messaging etc.

It was always interesting to read peoples posts about a payphone existing in a small town next to a grocery store or convenience store which was being used for less than good intentions...

This 1 800 424 5004 number is from Chase Credit Cards, I imagine the people that have gotten called from this also have a Chase Credit Card that is passed due or they want a payment.

Same thing's happening to me, damn thing called me and woke me up this morning. I think some phone service providers will allow you to block certain numbers from calling your phone. Maybe I'll try that.

If anyone still needs thereverse lookup search for cell phones, try cellulartrace.com

This number is so annoying. I got tons of calls in the morning until midnight on my cellphone and my home phone. Would you please stop calling !!

i keep getting calls from this number and today it left a song on my fone any else get a call like that?

too weird! i looked up this number (800-424-5004) online here and found the message from kelly in alabama for the same situation! AND the same day! seriously! i have no idea why but this number has been calling me every 5 minutes non stop. i had to unplug my phone! WTF!?

I have also received about 9 calls today from 1-800-424-5004. I have been home all day and they have called repeatedly! I have also gotten about 75 e-mails from foreigners saying that I have won the lottery or that my distant relative in the Middle East has died and I have all of this money waiting for me-I even had an e-mail Monday stating that Wachovia needed to update my customer file and that they needed all of this information from me (ss#, account #, etc) I am not even a customer with Wachovia! This is really aggravating and from what I hear, when others have tried to report, no one seems to care-Is this some kind of terrorist harrassment?

Does any one knows ""Central Communication Center"" [central_communication_center@yahoo.com] 1-800-239-1744, they are somewhere in Pacific Time Zone,

Look like they watching emails, try to Google them and nothing came up.

Hey Lurch, read my post below. I actually reported that number to Macy's fraud dept. and they really didn't seem to care. It's amazing that there's probably thousands of people giving out their macy's info and macy's doesn't care.

If you realy want to stop these calls, come november vote for anyone who is not repulican (Corperate america) The FCC and FTC or bedfellows of corperate america as long as republicans control the gov.

I keep getting calls from the phone number 1-604-550-7000 and i really wish i knew who it was, he said he got my number off the internet, but my cell number isnt displayed anywheres it comes up once or twice every 2 days, and i dont really want to answer it because i am not to sure on who it is. anyone have any idea?

Am visiting B.C in Canada and keep getting calls in the middle of the night from +6045507000 I have traced the code to Malaysia which has a country code of +60... can this be correct? My number isn't listed over here nor have I made any calls from my phone yet as I only arrived yesterday - where do they get them from?

I received a call from the above number around 6:30 PM last night. It showed up on the caller ID and it seemed like an automated dial call. I kept saying Hello but nobody was there .

Kept getting calls from 727-556-5492. The caller wouldnt leave a message. After the 10th time I decided to pick it up and "Max" with a heavy Indian accent answered. Said he was a rep from Macys and told me my account was delinquent. I knew it wasnt. He wanted me to give him my bank account number. I laughed and hung up. Reported it to the FTC.

i've also been recieving phonecalls from the number 0016045507000 but the only thing i hear i a bleeping noise like a fax

I got this call at about 10:40 am PST on 6/16/06; it shows on a reverse directory search to be Victoria, British Columbia in Canada. No one speaks when I answer.

Keep receiving pre recorded messages saying to call this number: 866-302-0858.. this is a business line. The message doesn't ask for anyone in particular, so i called them to have the business line removed, they asked for the person, i told them i was not at liberty to give out personal info, she then asked for the HR dept. I was not about to give that out either!! She refused to tell me what it was about.

Well what i like to know is ,if everybody witch resive these cales also have a inter conection by a phone company (ADSL)?

I've been getting calls from them off and on for a couple of weeks. No one answers, but it's now on my cell phone directory under the name 'Spam - Ignore.'

Yep, it looks like the Next Big Thing is cell phone spam.

Anyone see this number before? I recived it today on my ans. mechine and it had anouther number after it to give to the person that ans's the phone. I called the number and asked who it was? they first said it was a bank and I said "Oh a telemarketer" they said know and what wqs the other four number I got with the call? I said if your not a telemarketer then who are you and they said we do collections and what was the four digit number? I said your not getting it and hung up.So if anyone knows this number please e-mail me.

Okay folks here's an update. That god damn number keeps calling but this time they left a message. The number they told me to call was 800-767-1846. I called the number from a unlisted number and it is a ISP voice mail company. No-one answers and they keep asking for a pin number. The message they left in my voicemail asked for me by name. The last person to leave to post a message mentioned that if you request a credit report they have means to track you down by your information you provide. I have an excellent credit report also. I wish someone would of answered because I would blasted them with both barrels.
Any one else getting calls from this number?

I have done some research regarding Van Ru. They are a collection agency owned by attorney brothers. The purchase old debts for pennies on the dollar and attempt to collect. If the debt was ever written off by the original lender and went to some (any) collection agency it may have been resold as part of a package; even if the debt was subsequently collected on by the agency.

One thing I am almost certain of....If you are getting calls from 727-213-9122...You probably clicked on a link on the Internet for a free look at your "credit score". You had to enter certain personal information and fell right into Van Ru's little trap. I am also quite certain that your credit score is currently pretty high which makes you Van Ru's prime target. They are banking on you wanting to keep your score clean and will try to intimidate you into believing that if you don't pay up they can harm your good standing...and they can if you even so much as acknowledge that you might owe something, way back, 10, 15, 20 or more years ago. If they can get you making any kind of statement or giving them any kind of confimation they may be able to file for a judgement as the so called owner of the old debt. They can file for a hearing to be held in Florida or Arizona and they bank on you not appearing which will give them a judgement by default and reinstate a debt to your credit report that you may not even owe or that has long since gone the way of statutes of limitations. They have software that will alert them when any of their "targets" have a change on their credit score...like you pay off a card and it raises your score...and indicates well being...so they will try to upset that and intimidate you to pay them to stop the harrassment.

The operate on the very ends of the fringes of the law. They are very clever; but the person calling you is probably just a trained "boiler room" flunky. You do not have to tell them ANYTHING.

Your best strategy is to NEVER talk to them. NEVER tell them ANYTHING. NEVER acknowledge ANYTHING or confirm ANYTHING to them.
Another thing you might do, especially if you might have told them more than you should have is to have a recorder set up to capture the call. Tell them that you are recording this call and see how fast they hang up on you or how they violate fair credit collection practice laws.

This number calls, listens to me saying hello, but they do not answer. I tried to call the number back,
there is a recording saying "The number you are calling is no in service" Try to explain that one.
Yet this number called several times.

i will call bell canada tomorrow to see what's up with that.

As of today, this phone number was used to call me regarding my former AOL account. I had ignored the calls (both to my cell and home number) because I didn't recognize the number. The message that they left was "they'd call back" regarding a "membership or subscription" that I had. I just torched the poor person who called me a few minutes ago trying to get me to re-sign with AOL. As IF!!!

I have been getting calls from this GD # for months. Who the hell is it and why are they messing with me???

Since several days we have calls from this tel number : 001 604 550 7000.
It seems strange.
Does someone from France has been called from this tel number ?

this number is from Vancouver, Canada. It's a cell phone with the registred carrier TELUS.

It seems strange rhat a lot of pepole advise callin the FCC and report these numbers, when all the FCC has to do is look at this web page??????????????????????

I keep receiving calls from this number. I refuse to answer it because I know it is a solitor. I am on the do-not call list. This is somewhere from the mid-west.
Damn why don't these ass's leave me the f*** alone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have gotten about 151 calls from this company and when I answer they hang up. I contacted them and explained to them that there are laws and that I was going to file a civil suit and have them prosecuted through Miami. they say they are for a credit card company ASPIRE, guess who I am calling tomorrow??? Why would I give my personal info to these idiots? Tomorrow I am calling the bank over ASPIRE and then I am filing a harrassment civil law suit against the bank they are their employer. We have had many people win these suits for 40,000 and up for harassment in the state of Texas. Once you tell them to stop calling, then you tape them, then you sue them. They think that because they have me call them back it is not harrassment. I am glad for caller ID.

I just received a call from (604) 550-7000 and didn't answer it. I then Googled it and came up with many sites including this one. From what I can see posted it maybe a Nigerian n***** scam. They email my wife all the time telling her to send money to some BS king's son in Nigeria or Ghana (a nation know for its Ghana nigger scams), and in return she will receive a million in Swiss francs LOL!

I see someone has also thought it was Dell, and coincidently I recently purchased a Dell computer and gave them ONLY my pay cell phone number which was called. So it just might be Dell, that would explain the "foreigners" on the other end of the phones!

So I got a call after 8am this morning, and was very curious as I have never seen this area code before. I googled the number and this site comes up. What number is this ? Why is is calling so many people ?

Someone please investigate. People are tired of receiving spam calls, and spam email too ....... sheesh

I read a January posting down below about calls from a WI MN WINDOWS (773) 774-1760. I am on the WI no call list, but I am also receiving calls from this number on my caller ID. When I try to call back, I get a busy signal. The closest numbers I could find for a window company with this exchange is in Chicago:

5304 N. MILWAUKEE AVE. CHICAGO IL 60630
773-774-3131

Chicago, IL (773) 774-2400

I left them both a message asking that they do not call me again if in fact this is them calling me.

I've been called at least 7 times today from this number with a young Mexican saying something. For God sake, at least get a green card and learn to speak English.

I will be calling the telephone company in the moring.

This number keeps calling me too and I googled it and found this website. I haven't answered it yet but when I tried to call the number back it said it was a customer service number so I hung up. It has called me a total of ten times today since 8:00 this morning and I have been at work since then.

I started receiving calls from this number on Friday. I noticed that there were several calls from it on my caller ID. On Saturday I answered and had someone with a heavy foreign accent ask for "Matty". That's not even close to my name. I asked who was calling and she said, "Miss Ford" Yeah, right. I asked what the call was about and she said it was a "courtesy call". I told her I was on the "do not call registry" and I do not accept such calls. I instructed her to put me on the list and not call again. I went out and, when I came back, I had rec'd about 3 more calls from that number. The next time they called, I answered. This time it was a man with an accent asking for "Matty". I told him that no one with that name lived here and that he needed to stop calling. It was then that I "googled" the number and found this site.

I have no delinquent accounts. My bills are ALWAYS paid before the due date. My number is unlisted and I'm on the "do not call" registry.

I've filed a complaint witht he FCC, but, from what I've seen posted here, that is unlikely to do any good. In the meantime, I'm dealing with it in my own way. They called me several times today while I was at work. They just called again and I blasted a whistle into the phone.

I saw there were several other complaints regarding this number so I figured I'd share my fun afternoon with the rest of you.

I received a call from "Health Care" this afternoon. The only reason I've been answering these types of calls lately is because we recently changed our phone number due to a lovely stalking incident. The number change was long enough ago for our registration with the national DNC list to take effect but not quite long enough for the PA list to go into effect. Since we are registered on the national DNC list I have already filed a complaint about "Health Care." Hopefully there are enough others that do the same so that some action is taken.

Anyhow, when I answered I pressed "1" as instructed because I figured maybe they were looking for the old guy who used to have our number....... I asked that they remove us from their database to which I got a quick, "yeah sure" from Mr. Intelligent. I then asked the name of the company. This was received with a "Hello? Hello?" and then a dial tone... as if that f****r didn't hear me lol. I then tried calling back but all you get is a pre-recorded message asking you to put your phone number in so they can remove you. Yeah right... more like sell your good number to some other scammers. I opted instead to start pushing random numbers in and then confirming that it was "correct."

Since I was bored I continued to do this for the next hour as I surfed the net. I really had nothing better to do this afternoon so it was a great way to pass the time :D

I googled the number and found this place which was quite helpful since someone was nice enough to post the 800# for the company that sells these scammers service. I called the company up and pressed "0" for the operator. Of course she wasn't available though. I called back and pressed "7" for info about their auto-dialer service (!!!) and spoke to a "wonderful representative. When I asked her if she could give me the name of the company that this 206# belonged to she informed me that it would be illegal for her to give me that information. I guess it isn't illegal for said company to harass someone registered on the DNC list though.

Well, I'm sure you can imagine how happy she was to hear that. I let her know that her "privacy only matters to us" company has been reported. She asked for my phone number so that she could place us on her DNC list. Yeah, sure. I'll get right on that one. I told her no because I really didn't feel like being harassed even more when she sold our number to even more scammers. She really didn't care for that either....

You know, I really hate f****rs like this. It's okay for them to call us but god forbid they identify themselves. I hope hell has a special place where they are repeatedly anally raped by rotary phones. Seems only right...

It is 2:55am and I was awoken by a phone call I received from 702-430-4432. The caller ID read "service center" and when I answered, an automated female voice said to "please hold, a live operator will be connected to you in a moment" then some elevator music started to play. I waited and then it just went silent and disconnected. It is really late to be receiving calls from a telemarketer. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else had the same happen to them and why would they call so late.

I just got a call from this number. It was Dell.

Probably wanted to mask the fact that their customer service could be calling from anywhere in the world and to save a few bucks on the phone bill.

So I would be careful about calls displaying this number. Word to the wise, screen your calls.

Does anyone know this number? 888-341-6575? They keep calling me, and when I pick up usually no one responds. One time someone finally did and knew my name and started asking me about student loans and I said I didn't care about student loans and not to call me back again, but it hasn't worked. My cell phone company says they, nor any other cell phone company, can block calls, any suggestions?

My boyfriend said that he phoned to me from Cache Creek Casino payphone, it is in California. I think he didn't lie me.

Quality Resources, 28870 US Hwy 19 N, Clearwater, FL 33761 is listed in the Florida Yellow Pages as: School-Business & Vocational, Industrial Tech & Trade.
They can call me until their phone busts. It don't cost me a thing. And the ringer is turned off.

its funny they call here for my father granted they never say his name correct .. they say Ronald KayKee... where they get the Kay from I dont know but I just figure if you cant say the name correct its not someone we need to speak to , not only that but also my father has passed away.Im sure nobody really wants to speak to him right now . the other number they give on the answering machine is 727-649-0036. but caller ID comes up with 727-219-9122 . now that Ive read all these posts Im going to block that number from further calling .. thank you everyone for your input , deffinently made up my mind on ever answering the phone for that number again.. thanks again

I've received repeated calls from this number, letting my machine answering them, assuming they are up to no good, due to the lack of a name on Caller ID. From reading the various messages on this number I would say it is computer generated call that hangs up after a few rings or if answered by voice mail. The computer will keep calling until it gets a human, and will then forward the call to one of their human telemarketers which will be selling whatever snake oil of the day they happen to be contracted to sell. Answering the call and asking to be put on their DNC list should work, but assuming they are not ethical, ignoring the calls may be even better.

Have you had any luck finding the location of the pay phone. My bf called me from the same number a couple of days ago and he said he was in Tn but I have found it is a Ca area code. Any ideas? Email me if you have any info I would love to know where its at also.

To the person who lost the key to his pay phone, you will probably have to drill through the lock to get it out. Pay phone locks are designed to be quite hard to pick.

If you are getting messages on your answering machine with someone saying "hello, hello" That is because they are on an auto-dial system. when they press to go to the next call, sometimes the answering machine message has already played, and then they get on the phone and hear dead silence. So they say Hello to see if anyone is there, and hang up...

My suggestion is to answer your phone people... Find out who it is... it may just be as simple as a wrong number... I work for a collection agency.. all you have to do is say, "You have the wrong number" and they will take your number out.. If we don't know that it is wrong, we are going to obviously keep calling...

I know it sucks, remember that they are just doing their job.. hear them out..

I got my key stolen that fits one of my payphones upper housing (top lock). How can I remove, pick, or get the housing open? It is an Abloy lock and the number is not registered. Please email me good news. :)

pro panam keeps calling my house - i have asked 5 times for them to stop calling. I have my caller id full of there calls. Any suggestions on how to make it stop??

Has anyone ever received calls from 205-663-8581? I get three to four calls daily from this number, and when I pick up the phone, it's only a series of beeps , similar to a fax machine. The number cannot be found with google or yahoo....It's a number in Alabaster, AL, and when I callback, no one picks up the phone.
Please help! This has been going on for months now. Called Bellsouth, they said I could have the number blocked, but I would have to pay $5 per month in order to do this!!! Crazy!

Seems this number belongs to a sleazeball company that
"buys old debt" (Even 7+ years old).
I got a call from them on 5/20/2006 at 9:13 AM on my
cell. (This was a weekend.)
I called the number back to find out it was a company
called "Asset Acceptance"

http://www.assetacceptance.com/

ASSET ACCEPTANCE, LLC
9801 S. 51st Street
Phoenix, AZ 85044
(480) 403-6400 Fax: (480) 403-6451

From their website:

Asset Acceptance is a national company that buys charged-off consumer receivables such as credit cards, consumer loans, medical, utilities, telecom, health club, and auto deficiencies.

Asset Acceptance purchases charged-off debt from credit issuers, consumer finance companies, retail merchants, telecommunications and other utility providers, as well as resellers and others. Asset Acceptance is committed to recovering the amount owed - even if it takes several years.

Now, doesn't that sound like harrassment to you?
Any debt over 7 years old that no longer appears on
your credit report is still debt you owe, but it
doesn't appear on your report any longer because
the statute of limitations has run out.

On another note, here's one of revenge:

Well, anyway, more than 7 years ago, I got a phone
call from a collection agency in NJ. Turns out I
thought I had paid my last phone bill before moving
out of state. Well, this sleazeball person with a
spanish accent tried to make me out to be someone
who doesn't pay their debts. He tried to sound all
savvy about how he found me. (Like he was some sort
of super hacker or something.)
I found out later he got my # from my mother.

I found out the debt was
from the phone company, called, said I was sending
them a check right away and did. (Always pay what
you owe.)

Anyway, this jerkoff had the nerve to call
back demanding money AFTER i sent the payment directly
to the phone company. I don't believe in credit
cards, and this a*****e said he'd put it on my credit
report. Since I was going to NJ that week for the
holidays, I told him if he did anything to besmirch
my good name, he wouldn't be happy.
Naturally he laughed and I hung up.

Now, being I found out he was in NJ and I was going
to be there, I called up the company and got a manager
and spoke to him. He wasn't too friendly either.
I tried to explain that I paid the bill, but he also
had a f***tard attitude.

He threatened to make sure I'd never get credit.
That made me see red. In an icy voice, I said,
"You are of course aware of the consequences of
messing around with someone you don't know, especially
someone who is extremely good with computers."

So this f***tard laughs and says if I don't pay my
bill (to them) they would "take action."
I hung up. Now I wasn't seeing red, I was seeing black.

I set the # of his agency loose on IRC, in as many
channels as I could find. Then I found out his home
# and passed that around too. When I got to NJ a few
days later, I visited his agency, walked straight
into his office, ripped his phone out of the jack
and said "My debt to NJ Bell was paid to them.
I don't know you, or your company. I owe you nothing.
Try to threaten me again, and guaranteed, I'll do
much much more to you than you'll ever do to me.
I'll dedicate the rest of my days to making your
life a living hell. If you think $60 is worth it,
do something to my credit or contact me again."

I slammed the phone on his desk and walked out.
This guy couldn't have been more than 5'4'.
Now imagine some 6'3" guy walking into your office
shutting the door and ripping the phone out of its jack.
Especially a very angry 6'3" guy.
Not too pleasant eh?

Never heard from them again. :)

I don't believe in skipping out on debt, but when
you're about to get married and whatnot, some things
do slip by. I think what got me so mad was the
attitude. People DO make mistakes but these companies
think because they can add things to credit reports
that they own you and can make your life hell.

Last I heard, the company is no longer in business.

Like I said, sweet revenge. :)

Who is this and why do they insist on calling me? They never leave a message and a return call yields a busy signal.

I keep getting calls once a day around noon from 7272139122. If I answer there is nothing, but if it goes to voice mail I get a woman asking for a call back regarding my child. Something to do w/ his school. I dont even have a child! If you try and call the number back it just says you can not complete the call. How do you make the calls stop coming in? please inform.

The last week I have had numerous hang ups on my answering machine. This morning I " *69 " the number and it answered "NOVA ONE". The message said to leave your name and number, but there was no way to do that. I searched the Boise Yellow pages and this company doesn't have a listing. I hope this helps. Maybe someone else can pick up the thread to "NOVA ONE". Santih

DOES ANY ONE KNOW HOW TO FIND A LOCATION OF A PAY PHONE USEING THE PHONE NUMBER?

COME ONLINE

IT COMES UP AS QUALITY RESOURCES..DOES ANYONE KNOW OF THEM

KEEP GETTING CALLS FROM THIS #..THEY JUST LEFT MSG.THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE

BE CAREFUL. IF YOU RECEIVE A CALL FROM THE ABOVE NUMBER, IGNORE IT. THEY'RE TRYING TO GET YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. SOMEHOW, THEY HAVE GOTTEN SOMEONE'S NAME WHO IS LIVING IN YOUR HOUSEHOLD. THEY KNOW VERY LITTLE, PROBABLY JUST THAT, FIRST NAME, LAST NAME, MAYBE LAST 4 DIGITS OF YOUR CREDIT CARD, AND/OR THE NAME OF ONE OF THE DEPARTMENT STORES WHERE YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT. THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO GET MORE PERSONAL INFO, TO SCAM YOU.. IGNORE THEM AND REPORT THEM TO THE STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL. YOU CAN ALSO REGISTER THEIR NUMBER AT STOPCALLS, THE GOV. SITE.
GOOD LUCK, AND DON'T TALK TO THEM... NEVER GIVE PERSONAL INFO OVER THE PHONE, ASK THEM TO SEND IT VIA EMAIL. THEY DON'T NEED YOUR MAILING ADDRESS IF THEY'RE REALLY KNOW WHO YOU ARE...BEST OF LUCK..

Got 2 calls from this number, didn't pick up. Lucky I found this site!

I represent an employer who has been called repeatedly for various employees who are delinquent in accounts. They have told me they are from the IRS, their mortgage company, refused to stop calling, called ten times in a row, you name it. Immediately contact your state attorney general and don't stop until you get satisfaction. Document everything. In addition, mail them a letter telling them they may not call this number any more, sign and send return receipt. This method (didn't even have to go return receipt route) worked great. Attorney General handled it from there. Got em to stop for me!

Just a quick post for any new people. Any (206) call is probably a telemarketer. They use predictive dialers that call blocks of numbers. Using a predictive dialer to call a cell phone is illegal. As is calling people on the DNC and using a recorded message to call your home. Calls after 9:00 pm are not allowed. Report all violations to the FTC (877 382 4357).
The phone company for all (206)#'s is Marathon Communications (800 919 1000). A Seattle company that provides (206)#'s to telemarketers. Call to complain and ask who the number belongs to. Don't just leave a message, ask for someone in charge. Post results here. For more info. visit www.anti206.blogspot.com Call the Washington Attorney General (206 464 6948) and file a complaint.

(206 415 8580)(269 537 2039) Card Holder Services is from Higher Response Marketing PO 55475 St Pete 33732.(206 415 9126) is a pre-record from Dish Network.
Many (206) calls are to find "good" numbers for DirecTV and (734 298 7802) Dish Network. Call (888 332 1486) Dish Network to complain. Always file a complaint with your State Attorney General.
(206 415 8779) is from Global Contact Services. This is the telemarketer that filed suit to stop the DNC list in 2003.Call Brian Helton (304 877 5180) to complain.

I keep getting calls from this 206-415-9148 number ....when I answer they HANG UP!!..they are even calling my house on SUNDAYS!!! ...If anyone has ANY information about these annoying phone calls please post...I even called them back numerous times and all I keep getting is voice mail...with no name!?!

Hello,
I have a question. Is there a payphone that cost 10 cents, 25 cents, and 50 cents? Can you press 0 for long distance on the pay phone and will the call be free? Are pay phones perfect in case if the cell phone battery died?
Thanks!
Chris Flynn

be on the lookout for this number a person calls asking to verify your social security number. do not respond at all simply hang up on them.

i noticed the other posts on this phone number - good information. i got a phone call from this number tonight. the ID said "eyewitness news". i didn't answer.

Hi there,

I have also been annoyed by one of this numbers. I absolutely hate that they can't even have a person talk to me when I answer, it has to be all automated. Well, I've been doing some research, and Carol (she mentioned this number too) Apparently, this number belongs to West Asset Management and you can call and ask to be removed by calling them at 1 888 433 2886. I've just found this out, so I have not yet done it. I certainly will in the morning though. Hope you all also are able to get these stupid, mostly illegal callers off your back!

I have been receiving phone calls on my home phone from this # 727-556-5492 a woman with a heavy asian accent asked to speak with mr. ..... I said its not mr its mrs she said Im sorry, and went on about how my acct was past due I asked her which creditor I was speaking with she could not reply she only had the last four digits of the credit card. and told me I had to make a payment on it now to keep it form goinmg to collections I know I have been late on it but not that late. I asked her what credit card company again she said the last 4 digits of the acct # It was hard to understand her, and I told her I don't just give out my info to people who call up. My husband picked up the phone and asked her who she was he said we can not understand you and hung up the phone. Please let me know if any one finds out more info.....

For those that have received calls from the above number. Please review it carefully on your caller ID. On mine it showed up with the prefix 011 (international access); if you re-dial the number exactly as received you get a message that you have reached a private network (caution there could be fees associated with this call as it appears to be international). The number 1-800-424-5004 appears to be a legitimate Chase number; however, I don't believe the people calling from the 011 variant are legitimate; especially given the rare nature of their unsolicated inquiries (such as Acct# & SSN). My recommendation would be to report these incidents to all parties which may be impacted by their actions (i.e. Chase, phone company, local authorities, FTC, etc..)

Good Luck!

I keep receiving calls from this number Pro Panama??? and when I called the phone company to see who this was--they said the customer prefers to be unknown. I happen to have caller ID and decided to look it up on the internet but no success. So I decided to just put in the phone # and SUCCESS. Other persons have been receiving this too. I already have a msg on my answering machine about sales people and any kind of company sales, promos etc. (Don't call back) I guess it is not working.

This # has been calling my cell several times back to back the last couple of days - If this is Chase, I don't have a Chase credit card so why would they be maniacally calling me

973-279-0000 is what shows up on the caller id when someone calls your with a verizon calling card. that's why you can't get through when you call back.

I have received at least 3 calls from FACS South to my business line. All have been hang-up calls. I went to Federated's website and asked for a direct number for FACS South. 727-556-5339 was given to me. I also filed a complaint with Donotcall list because all my contacts numbers are listed in the registry.

I am constantly receiving calls from strange numbers. This morning, I received two calls one from 203-200-1234 and when I called back it wasn't a working number. The second number was 206-415-8503 and when I called it back there was no answer. I don't know how these persons got my cellular number! I done a search on the second number and found all these postings with the same number shown. Strange. People are so screwed any more, crooked even.

Okay, I am a computer expert in about anything and everything you think of. First of all, most of the callback phone numbers on your caller ID aren't even real. However, there is a real number behind that call. When you make a phone call to anywhere to anywhere the number that it tracks isn't the phone number. People like me can very easily get that callback number to say anything we want. in fact, I could paste some of the code to do it right here but I won't. Voice over IP is what these companies are using to pull this scam on us.
I could very easily say my callback number is 911 if I want to and if I am calling a cell phone I can get it to go into emergency which will activate the GPS in it and I can't tell you here what I can do with that. lmfao!
Well anyway, there is a way to track this people!
Every phone call that you make no matter what callback number you use has ONE number that can be used to track it over the networks. I am not going to get technical here with names that you will not understand. However, this number can be used to find out who made the real call. Don't try calling a phone company to get this information. The number will not help you out at all. However the NSA does have a large list of these numbers ILLEGALLY! It is sad that only one company refused to give them these numbers with names.
Back to the subject, to get the point out... Companies could even use YOUR number as a callback number when they call to sell something and your line could be over flooded with calls. They don't, but they could.
This REALLY has to stop. I believe that knowledge is power. Yes, I have a whole lot of power but I don't abuse it.
Anyway, I didn't really think about what I was going to say before I typed all of this so it is a little bit unstructured. I do hope you guys learn a bit on this post for it will likely get deleted for security reasons. They don't want you Americans to get too smart.
If you are having issues with phone calls, try getting a number that has NEVER been used or hasn't been used by anyone else in years. One thing that I have learned is that I only get these calls on home lines. If you call a cell phone company, cell phone companies care a little bit more about you than your local phone company.

I just got the "Evergreen" call this morning. Go to the DO NOT CALL registry and file a complaint. THey need the number, the time of call, your number, and name of company--in this case, EVERGREEN. It's anonymous if you choose. Good Luck!

I recieved a call today from this number (0016045507000). I didnt bother to answer, I saw the number on my display. I think I recieved a call from this number before, when I was not home. What is this? Which country is the number from?

They are scams people. AT&T or whomever your phone provider is is not going to help you. Keep changing your phone numbers or don't answer. SBC used to have a blocker called privacy manager. Don't know if they still do but it was pretty good at blocking calls.

I got a call from 206-415-8503, as i answered it told me i had no time left to lower my apr so i pressed 1 and a man asked me to identify my self, i told him you are the one who called and how did you get my number? He hung up right away. Less then 2 months a go, i got a similar call offering to lower my apr so as i pressed 1 a lady came on the line trying to get all my info, she told me that i had to give her my cc# and i said only if BoA clears her company ( this is funny) she called bank of America on a 3 way and told me to digit in my full cc numbers, i said no and i would check the info in regards to the company she said she represented.... the company doesn't exist the number she gave me to call back was an old pan am disconnected number. Be extremely careful people.

If anybody knows how to report this please save us from this kind of people, I don't believe this are error calls, this is a nice plot to rob people. I almost paid for it dearly just because I got blinded by a lower apr offer.

Craig in Florida, tell them you're with the Federal Government. They'll give you all the information you want.

I just got a call from 206-415-8503. It was a recorded message, identifying the company as "Credit Card Services." The recording seemed to be already running when I picked up, making it seem like I missed the beginning. The message told me that there is currently no problem with my account, but the deadline was approaching for reducing my interest rate. "Press 1 for further information. Press 2 if you do not wish to receive further notices." I pressed 1. It rang several times. A man answered "Credit Card Services. May I ask who's calling?" I said "Actually, you called me, and I don't know who you are." He hung up.

I have been getting called many times a day, to my cell phone,from several different numbers. I made up a group calling list called "Duds". It is on a very quiet ring. At the end of the day I delete all the missed calls in this group. As new numbers I don't want come in, I add them to the "Duds" group. Works just great.

I keep getting calls from 973-279-0000. No one is on the line and when I call it back it says its disconnected. Its a Verizon trunk but they wont give me any information.

Thanks

A while back I answered a phone call in which my ID said blocked call. As soon as I answered it, a computer voice said that I had a long distance call from a Harris County inmate. It started to say something else but I hanged up.

I mentioned this to my husband and he told me that some radio talk host had been talking about a phone call he had taken from a blocked call and that it too was from a Harries County inmate. This talk host accepted the charges and spoke with the 'supposedly inmate' for seconds only. The conversation went somthing like this, "Is so and so there? Um no. He/She doesn't live here. Ok sorry. I have the wrong number".

After that, he says it was a friggen nightmare. The phone kept ringing non-stop. And when he would pick it up, noone was there. What happen was that when he accepted the call/charges, and spoke with the 'inmate', they somehow rigged his number and ALOT of long distance calls were being made. So everytime the phone would ring, a long distance call was going through his line.

Soooooo, I'm really really glad I hanged up on that blocked call. I've instructed EVERYONE not to answer calls from unknown numbers, blocked calls or blocked names.

Best thing I suppose is not to answer those types of calls.

i just got call from them so decided to google and this post came up. I didn't talk to them just answered and hang up. Will see if they call me back.

This number called my mother in laws house last week stating that someone with the same last name gave my MIL number for a refer. No such name in our family. They called me today with same info, got an attitude, and then hung up. IS it a scam?

kept getting this phone call from this pro panam. i got pissed and called it back. they kept hanging up so i crank called them a few times. finally i got someone to pick up the phone. he said i qualify for some asian credit card. and he could lower my current credit card. i just need to give him my info F*#@ that!! told him not to call anymore

I just received a call from the same number?? Don't know what it's about. . . they just hang up.

I have 15 calls from this number today, starting at 8:30am. The last 10 calls have come in the past 4 hours, some only 10 minutes apart. I let them all go to the answering machine, and they never leave a message. Finally, I answered then hung up (pick up and drop). They have not called back...yet.

The FTC is my next stop.

Thank-you to the others who have posted their experiences with this telephone number and the one with all zeros. These people, whom ever they are, have called me fifteen times today and I finally answered and let them know that I would be reporting them to the FTC.

I have also received calls from these 2 numbers and each time they leave messages that are gibberish and broken up I have never answered them. I do have chase cards but they do not have my cell number. All accounts that I do carry only get my home number and since I just moved they do not even have that yet. So whomever this is it can not be legit.

416-361-1979 calls me frequently and it apears that it is a fax machine cause i only hear a beeping sound,

Ok, this number 786-437-6939 keeps calling. Tonight they called me twice. Asking is I speak spanish. Sorry no one here does and I hang up they called like 20 minutes later and then a weird call from 888-341-6575. It is 9pm here so I got on the computer to find out what this Pro Panam was and found this site. This has been going on for a month now.

All: Those of you who think this is a real number (which it is not) are sorely mistaken. I just got off the phone with Chase - dailing them myself - and the several people I talked to said that they would NEVER ask for the information that this number was asking for over the phone. The people calling from 800-424-5004 are probably also the people posting on this site stating the number is valid. Report them to the FTC and be on alert for identity theft.

I have been getting calls at my work phone intermittently from 208-327-1751 for over a year. I see many other complaints about this number. Only recently did I link it to a specific phone number. They keep asking to verify the address of someone who I once reported to who no longer is here. They keep asking the same darn question, and I have given them the same darn answer about 8 times. My guess is that these people are spending lots of money making stupid & annoying calls. They seem unable to clean up their own database.

404-461-9978 is a calling acrd # used by service members calling from Iraq.

I was getting calls from this number at least once a day and sometimes twice a day for a week. The number showed up on caller ID but only Idaho for a name. Finally I answered and it was a company calling on behalf of AOL. I told them I was on the "Do Not Call List" and they replied it didn't apply to them because I was a former member of AOL. I think I will file a complaint with the FTC. From what I understand telemarketers name must appear.

I suspect this company does the dirty work for more companies than AOL.

This number is used as a VoIP local connector line. Companies such as www.woize.com use it to relay outgoing calls made from their software to 905-577-9770's local calling area.

If you receive anonymous calls from this line, you may be talking to someone on the other side of the world.

This # is Card Member Services. If you have a Chase Credit Card account, they are most likely calling to have you pay your past due account.

Hi Everyone,
This isn't the first time I've been called by this phone number, but I have yet to have a legitimate claim associated with it. I'm not going to say it's a scam, not out right yet at least, but pepole protect your personal information. Especially against any company that will not send you anything in writing. I'm saying this because my info. was stloen in Las Vegas and the only thing that saved me was that they did not have my Social Security listed properly. Pay what you owe people, but to hell with these scam artists!!!!

I received a call from the 800-424-5004 number, they were asking me to pay my account over the phone. The only info they could give me is the last four of my SSN and the last four digits of an old account. They said my balance was overdue, I told them that I'll pay it via mail. They insisted numerous times that I pay over the phone. I eventually just hung up on them. I just tried calling the number and it's an automated VM system telling you to enter in your account number. It doesn't say anything like, "Thank you for calling Chase" or anything. It doesn't ask you for your Chase account number. I'm so tired of crap like this, I hope these people burn in hell.

If anyone gets calls from 000-000-0000 is probably from Block Buster video automated system trying to tell you to return the movies you rented 2 weeks ago, but you didn't get the message.

Pro Panam always call my house but never talk so I hang up and call back and they say that it's a credit card company and I told them to stop calling my house. Don't trust them.

I see several others getting multiple calls from this #. No one is ever there when I answer...except today. I couldnt really understand the guy, just got..."Im calling from a collection agency, and need to verify some information." I immediately became defensive and told him to mail me information. He eventually hung up on me. Anyway...just beware.

trying to find a address for the following payphones 804-378-9739 & 804-378-4678. they are trying to bill me for 4 collect that we did not recieve.

My best guess to that is if someone calls you and you ring back and they is disconnected, its probably diverted to a non existent number

the last couple of months i had got many 100000000000 numbers calling me. i never answered any of them. i know my cc were late..and i knew that it was them calling. but i thought it was citibank card.. however- it could have been chase as i have both. but today ive gotten 10 100000000 so far and now the last 2 calls are coming from 1-800-424-5004. which never got before. chase is not due- howver i didnt pay the min. payment last month. and citibank isnt due either... soo.. i dont know what to think as i just ignore the calls.

Friend on the east coast bought a calling card. When they call the house, the ID is 404-461-9978.

Maybe this number always shows up when using calling cards from the same service...

I recieved a call on a Sunday midday from 973-279-0000.
The strangest thing: I answered and they hung up. I called back and the message was given that it was a disconnected number.
Anyone know anything about this?

In the past year, I have been plagued with phone calls from numbers I did not recognize. Unfortunately for the people dialing, I am hardly ever home - so they show up on my display. My records show that they mostly phoned at around 8 p.m. and they were from a multitute of area code numbers. Like many of you, if I don't recognize a number on my display, I don't answer it. On the rare occassion when I was home in the evening and frustration at the calls instruding in my home time, I would answer one or two, just so I could vent at them. But, there was nobody there. Interesting that they would phone on a daily basis, yet when I answer, they say nothing. The connection was still there, but noting is said.

I phoned my telephone company (Telus for you Canadian readers) and now pay a few dollars more on my phone bill to block phone numbers of my choice. I just put in the phone number, and I never hear from these people again. Unfortunaly it doesn't accept 800 numbers, unless I can catch them right after they call. Then I can have the last number blocked. This has been working well for me, and I wanted to share, just in case your phone company can offer you something similar.

Finally, the reason I happened on this website was because I was chasing area code numbers. On one of my searches I read that for two particular 800 numbers that were calling me, the recipiant of the call was charged for the call. No wonder they don't speak, they don't have to. You have just paid them by answering your phone.

I often wonder why this is happening to me when it is not happening to most people I know. The only thing I can pin it down to is that, about a year ago, strange coincidence, two legitimate companies phoned to ask for pledges. My mother bore no fools, so I asked them to send me something in the mail, and they did. But ever since then, I have been receiving all sorts of calls. I am wondering if somehow, knowingly or unknowingly, these legitimate organizations released a list of possible targets.

My advice? Get call display. Don't anser calls from phone numbers you don't know,and check you phone company to see what types of additional services they might be able to provide for you.

801-437-3150 Salt Lake City Utah called 4 times on May 6, 2006 and left no message.

Seems to me that #208-327-1751 form boise ID has called alot of people is this site being helped by the government or is it for frustrated people with nothing to do to complain and read other people's complaints and go on about their business 'til the next time because all these people here obviously having problems with some kind of number bothering them is there really any kind of official help?Don't mean to be disrespecful but think about it.

I just recieved a call from 786-437-6939, who the hell is it? It hit my answering machine but no one talked. Maybe I should get the # blocked? This is the 1st time they called. They called @ 8:07 PM, saturday.

Couldnt understand why this number came up when my buddy Danny called me from the southern part of the UK he didnt know know why it came up either so I googled it and it brought me here. This is one site I am going to book mark.

These two numbers have come up on my phone a few times, and the caller hangs up when i have answered, i would love to know where they are located....

905-389-1902 and 905-545-1203 Thanks

Hey All,

Seen the post on the 5004 Number, I though hey got nothing to lose as i am in Australia and we dont have a Chase bank, Some lady picked up and asked for my 16 digit card number??? What is the go... I said i havent got one, so she asked for my SSN#, dont have one either i told her, she then asked what was my 16 digit card number, Is she stupid or what.? she kept asking me over and over, if that was a bank a real bank they would not ask over and over or for your SSN#.

I got a bank here in Australia, The Commonwealth Bank, they never ask me for personal information.
So i do think that this is a scam number and i just love ringing that number just to piss them off, ha ha.

By the way what is a SSN#?

email me whitewash@netbay.com.au
if any replies ill have to send from tbowtell@austarnet.com.au

Cheers all

Yo da same 404-461-9978 numbca calld my cell, i ran my scanner and it showed itz in georgia.. but i dont kno where.

Thanks for the posting re: crank calls from 800-424-5004. I've received almost 200 calls from this number (along with a few from 000-000-0000) in the last 10 days. I did not call Chase prior to this happening. I now have a new phone number.

Phone numbers 206-415-9365 or 206-278-0035 are from Evergreen Sales & Marketing which is a Collection Agency.

I am also getting silent hangup calls left on my voice mail from 800-424-5004 -- 26 calls today. I am a Chase customer and called their call center for the first time last night. Within hours, the harassing calls stared. I have not returned the calls, but given what other people are saying, sounds like an Indian call center, and they are asking for personal information. It makes me suspect this may be a phishing scam with someone from inside Chase giving his Indian buddies their caller ID list.

I am not sure how to find out exactly what pay phones I am getting calls from, but for the last 3 weeks.
Does anyone know how to locate the addresses of the pay phones in the area..

I've been getting phone calls at around 8pm for the past two days from the following numbers:

801 - 437 - 3150 and
208 - 327 - 1751


801-437-3150 is some sort of survey co. I am registered on the do not call list and the 801 # has been calling me. National Do not call list only covers telemarketers. As long as they are just a survey and not selling you anything do not call does not cover. I believe you can call the company and request that you be put on their do not call list.

caller called at 8:51PM, Sunday, April 30. didn't answer because didn't recognize number.

That number doesn't seem to exist....I've looked at the reverse search sites, and noone seems to have it...Just wanted to let you know.

IS this the one you are looking for Jay?

Why all the questions about where payphonesa re from? If you want tto know just do a search

I'm trying to find this payphone location.
502-581-9255
Can anyone help me out there. This is urgent....

At 9:07AM on 4/29/2006 I received another call from 602-357-9922, but it only rang once. The first time I received a call from this number was a week or two ago from a man asking for me. I asked woh was calling, and responded with a name I can't recall and where he was calling from. It was something Department but unintelligible. HE said it very quickly. He hung up when I said I would take a message.

I just got 3 phone calls, one was a private #, one was 720-587-9978, and one was 404-461-9978. called them back and they were prepaid calling cards? does anyone know what these are??

>> I called it from my cell and from my gf's phone - everytime says it's disconnected.

Sounds like you're being spoofed. There are services on the net (spooftel.com for instance) to easily spoof the caller's ID & number when they don't want you to know who is calling. I'd guess you either have a creative ex-gf or somebody is looking for some money...

>>Funny... they are calling us and wont take out our wronge number

They don't believe you... They will continue to call until the debt is settled or they find more valid contact information. If you are really bothered by the calls, contact your phone company and file a complaint. The telco may also be able to block the specific callers from reaching your phone. Be very clear in your description of the problem and make sure you use the word "harassment" a few times.

I was finally home when this call came in. They started asking me about a neighbor and that's when I hung up. I was told by a friend that it was a bill collector looking for my neighbor since they couldn't contact my neighbor they look up an address & phone # near their deliquent customer so you can tell the neighbor a bill collector was looking for them.

Hello all. If you get a unsolicited phone call and you are on the do not call list file a complaint with the government using this link:

https://www.donotcall.gov/Complain/ComplainCheck.aspx

I've been getting phone calls at around 8pm for the past two days from the following numbers:

801 - 437 - 3150 and
208 - 327 - 1751

I just filed a complaint and highly recommend that everyone else here that receives one should file a complaint with the government via the above link. This way, if the gov't gets enough complaints about these two numbers (which is probably the same firm) perhaps it will take action against them.

Thanks for your time, and let's take action.

Can anyone tell me what this probably is? Getting 2 calls from a local number 515 331 6415 to my cell. Didn't answer because I don't know who it is. Then they called my girlfriend's home phone but I can't remember who I've given her number out to nor do I think the number is someone that I know. I called the number back and it's disconnected. I called it from my cell and from my gf's phone - everytime says it's disconnected.

I just got a call from 727 556 5492 which is in Florida, they asked if Jill, who dose live with me, was there. i said no and he asked me to tell her to call him. this was all pretty normal but then he asked me for my name. thats when i started looking up the number. she gets calls all the time but the callers never ask for my name if its for someone else and ive never even met them. not to mention theyre on the other side of the country. please get back to me...

I've been getting these calls 24/7 even at night after regular busness hours. My husband told them once to quit calling and they still are.. i've been getting other calls from differnt numbers and companies.. lot of scams. "Freedom Gold" and "teleflix" i dont know who they are charged my bank account I never gave info over the phone before.

I just got a call from that number and they were askign for seelina? wtf

Received a call from 404-461-9978; no message left. Googled the number and found this site. Anyone figure out what this is yet?

Got a call from 423-926-0014, phone rang once and no one was on the other line. Tried to call back- no answer. Rather annoying.

I got a call from this number ... at 9pm on a SUNDAY night. Nobody was on the other end though. The caller ID listed it from a "FACS South".

Not only is this number on my husbands cell phone, this number called my home, a man wanting to know why we called him,,,????? If this is a calling card number.. How can we call him??? And if this was the ONLY number showing up it would be grand.. Also having the 2062789103 number calling often.. How are you suppose to conduct daily business if they won't leave you alone??

This same person called me but left no message. Curious.

unknown callers, get caller ID And a very loud whistle,or call phone co to put tracer on line.
noone gets my full name, SS#. DOB, phone# address
and Never send money> Tell them to mail it to you,since they must have your Phone#, they should already know your address NO CHARGE CARD TYPES OR NUMBERS NO NAMES OF YOUR BANKING INSTITUTION. CALL YOUR BANK OR THE POLICE
404-647-9987 HAS AREADY SHOWN UP ON THIS SITE AS A PAIN CALLER

i get the 000-000-0000 numbers, i dislike them,
hope this helps all

I'm been getting calles for the wrong person from this number. They are looking for someone with the same name. They are extreamly rude and continuly call back looking for the name and differenct SSN#. We have told this persistant person that they have the wronge person. How do we get them and the rude people to stop calling our humber with the same name? If you know who the company is please let me know so we can address the issue. They will not give us any info on them? Funny... they are calling us and wont take out our wronge number.

Just received a call from 206-415-8503 & they left no message. So I called them back & asked who they were, and basically they are a Credit Card services company who make random calls to people asking them if they want to reduce their interest rate on their credit cards. I asked him to remove me from their call list & he said they would. (the person I spoke to was actually quite nice). Anyway, just thought I'd share my experience. Take care all.

800-424-5004 HAS CALLED ME 20 TIMES TODAY. I HAVE CALLED THEM BACK 6 TIMES. THEY ASK FOR MY ACCOUNT NUMBER AND I HAVE TOLD THEM I DO NOT HAVE A CHASE ACCOUNT. THEY WANT MY NAME, SS AND/OR PHONE NUMBER. I JUST EMAILED CHASE AND TOLD THEM I WAS CONTACTING THE TEXAS ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE. I, ALSO, HAD BEEN PUT ON HOLD SEVERAL TIMES, UP TO 30 MINUTES, WANTING A SUPERVISOR. I HAVE NOW TOLD THEM I WILL CALL THE POLICE IF THEY CALL AGAIN. THEY ARE NOT FROM THE UNITED STATES, THEY ARE FROM THE COUNTRY OF INDIA. I WANTED THEIR ADDRESS AND THEY WOULD NOT GIVE IT TO ME.

I am getting lots of calls from 800-424-5004 too. I ss them on the caller ID box when I get home, but no messages on the machine. Today I was home and answered the phone to see what they want and who thet are. I did not give them any info and did not call back on the number they gave. I called Chase using the info on my bill and it WAS Chase who called. Chase was very interested in what has been posted on sites about 800-424-5004 and they may change some of their outbound numbers. Part of the problem is with IP phone calling it's not that hard to give your self some bougus 800 number.

This number is from Chase Credit Card. I answered the call today and spoke to someone with an Indian accent. I was delinquent on my credit card and he called to set up payment with me. I did not volunteer any personal information, he already had my payment history, last 4 digits of my account, etc. He didn't ask me for my account number or SS#. Stop being haters because someone has a foreign accent and just pay your bill! LOL! If you are wary of the caller, then just call the number from your statement to work out a payment plan.

Seriously!this is getting spooky:1-800-424-5004 has been calling my home number at odd hours in the night.It is unlikely that it belongs to a Delaware Chase Bank.I suspect this is phoning scam that is using a legitimate line to intrude into personal information.Please advise..how are we going to get rid of this number.If we call back to the number,an odd-accent man/woman (claiming to be americans)in muffled tones speak.This is otrageous,we must all be careful of this number!

We had a call come in from this number on the 17th of April. The caller hung up after the machine answered. I searched it, and it is from Atlanta, GA, an AT&T number, on a pre-paid card.

I keep getting calls from this number just about every morning and when I answer they just hang up. I googled the number which is: 423-926-0014 and it led me to this website, does anyone know what this number is and how they got my number. I would suggest that if you are getting these calls also to report the number to the Better Business Bureau in your state so they can investigate for you.

Have been recieving calls from this number and it's alternate that has already been posted on here. I just don't answer the phone. Did Google as well and it is a pre-paid calling card.

I've got a number to a payphone but i dont know where its at the number is 1-276-762-9816. if anyone knows where this is can you please give me directions.

Within the last 2 days I have received 12 calls from this 602-357-9922 number. When researching this number I found this site. The number always calls my cell phone and only allows for 1 or 2 rings before hanging up. I have found two websites that might be useful to folks out there the first is http://thedirectory.org/pref/ which lists area codes for all 50 states, Canada and the carrribean. It may also help to reverse lookup the nuisance calls on http://www.anywho.com this site is sponsored by AT&T or was last time I checked and I've found it to be most helpful. As to this 602 number when I finally get the chance to answer before they hang up they are going to get a major earful! Hope this info helps others.

I have a call from this number. I do not know who it is. Do you?

My daughter rec'd a phonecall on her cell phone this evening from a woman claiming to be named Kim. She threatened her with bodily harm if my daughter continued to see Kim's boyfriend. My daughter kept insisting that the caller must have the wrong number, but Kim kept up with the threats. My daughter finally hung up and I put the number in Google and came up with this site.

Just thought I'd add this incident to the apparent long list of strange phone calls made from this number.

i get 1-800-424-5004 and 00000000 calls. They call me at least 20 a day. The was a time they called 7 times straight. AHhhhhh!!!! They have an India accent. I can barely understand them. They kept asking for someone named Anthony. Cingular cant block these incoming calls. Does anyone know what i can do about this problem??

877-415-3044 is the number for Discover Card. I called the number back and they are removing my name and number from their listing. I guess its quite simple. Hope this information was useful.

Received voicemail, but just static.
Could be from computer.
Check 411.com on reverse phone directory

Two calls at work today from (208) 327-1751. Did not bother to answer since I do not recognize the number.

I've received 4-6 calls a night, every night for the last week. No one says anything. Caller ID shows Evergreen, 206-415-9365. I called the number and it just says you can get on their "list." Any ideas how to contact them?

I just got a call from this number as well, forwarded to my cell phone, which didn't show any caller I.D. "Card Services?"

I've been several calls a day from "866-221-4286". The caller used to ring until my machine picked up (4 full rings) but now after 2, sometimes 3 rings, they hang up. No one answers on the other line. I've searched online trying to find out who/what company is calling. No luck so far. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

i have received the same type of call from those numbers also. and i was wondering does anyone bank with chase. i would like to know if the calls are related

My calls started 3 days ago, and have continued almost every hour since...when I tried to answer, the ONLY time I tried, a recording said "hold on for an important anouncement"!! How they get away with this is WAY beyond me! Thay also are using "+8004245004", "0000000000", and "+0000000000". Hope the FTC can do something about it!
Thanks, Vera, for the info!

i recieved this fone call every day, almost, very annoying, tried to call back, but cant get through, anyone know bout this, n had a clue of it? appreciated it

I keep getting prank calls from someone. They have been calling my house 2-4times a day for the last month.

The phone # doesnt show up on my call display. When he calls, he doesnt say anything. Shortly after, the line goes dead.

I need the exact location of a pay phone in queens the number is 718-276-1813. someone called about 2:00am and asked who i was and hung up. the number showed up on my caller id as queens

JUST RECEIVED A CALL FROM THIS NUMBER AND A WOMAN ASKED IF DOUGLAS WAS AVAILABLE...TOLD HER SHE HAD THE WRONG NUMBER. NOT SURE IF THIS INFO HELPS WITH THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE RECEIVED CALLS FROM THIS NUMBER AND NO ONE WAS THERE.

323-669-9287

Looking for the exact Los Angeles location of this payphone

Any leads would be greatly appreciated!! Searching for a lost 14 year old girl ~

I keep getting calls, at least 20 a day, from 800-424-5004 and from another number which displays as 800-000-0000. When I finally answered, some guy in India said he was calling for Chase Bank. He claimed he was "trying to help me" after I read him the riot act and told them to quit calling. I urge everyone to please report them to the Federal Trade Commission. You can file an online complaint at www.ftc.gov. Thanks

Just received call from 206-415-8503 "Card Services" and they try and pretend to know about your credit card history and try and ask you all these questions. When you ask to have it in writing or a number to call back they get all nervous and say that where they are calling from is just a call center and blah blah blah...Just call and harrass them like they do to us.

The number 404-461-9978 is a pre-paid calling card.

I have a number that is a payphone. I need to locate where the phone is at. Can someone help me? I can't find anything online that can do this. 618-343-9125 is the number. Thanks!

The 206-415-9365 belongs to Evergreens Sales & Marketing which is a coverup for a collection agency.

Where is a good website to do a payphone search? I'm living in the Niagara Region in Southern Ontario, Canada

Thanks

I got a call from this number. I found out it is in Oceanside. How can I get the exact location of the payphone.

I have gotten at least 10 calls from 800-424-5004 I answer (cell phone) and the ask for some Martinez guy (not me) They say they are from Chase Bank, and tell me they will remove the number from their list. Then they call again 10 minutes later and we go through the same thing. AAAHAHHHHHH!!!! Each person does have a middle eastern accent, more farmed out jobs at a pakistani call center I guess.

I just received two calls from 404-461-9978. One on our house phone and the other one on my cell phone. I'm just wondering who is calling from this number. When I answered both phones all they did was hang up. Very strange

The telephone number 604-550-7000 is a redirected number coming thru Canada from the UK, Ireland or Scotland exchanges. Sometimes those calls will read unknown, other times when the phone companies in the UK have to reroute calls b/c it is a busy time either early morning or at early evening they go thru Canada. It's no big deal. It's someone from Europe trying to call the United States and the lines are busy on the normal carriers they are rerouted thru the Canadian telephone service.

My mom recived a call from 0016045507000, she do not speak english, so she called me. I try to call back to the number, but no one answerd. I googled the number and found this site.

To VAL in Edmonton:
780 is the area code for Alberta, Canada.

Got phone call from 206-415-9365 which ID as Evergreen. Is this that Bank of America sales pitch or ?

Rec'd a call with nobody on the line from 404-461-9978 this evening.
Via Google, I found this site.

I have received 2 calls in 3 days from this number. It goes thru my privacy director, and does not get answered. The caller ID says Pro Panam. A check in reverse lookup reveals it to be in Miami, Fl., but no other info available.

I found the number is a pay phone linked to a electric autodial system. The call is a automatic call from a computer system checking to see if the phone is capable of dialing out. I am sure it also records when we try to call back but it won't answer because it is a pay phone linked to the autodial computer for record purposes I guess.?.?!!?!?!?!?!?!

I hope this helps!!!

I received a call from 404-461-9978 this morning and there was nobody on the line when I answered. Then I Googled the number and found this site. After further investigation it turns out the number belongs to a pre-paid phone card. There was a posting already on this site that said a person called them from the same number and directed them to "come to the door". Since I am expecting a visit from UPS today for a package pickup it may be their driver. Who knows?

I don't know the technicalities of it all, but it seems that sometimes a legitimate call from England is routed through the 604-550-7000 number. My family calls me frequently from there, and 1/3 the time that's the called ID number that appears.

Telus has told me this number is a hidden number being used by a Primus VOIP customer and to be very careful if you speak to them with any info given them

The phone calls are from a place in Boise Idaho...they say they deal with magazine subscriptions...they are harmless.

I have also recieved several phone calls from 1-423-926-0014 tried to call it back but it os always busy. hmmmmmm?

im from CA,this # 208-327-1751 call me everyday and call many times into my cell phone.They are also ask my name,phone # and my account #.Anyones can investigate them and find out who are those people.

We've received two calls from 423-926-0014. Has anyone found out anything about it? It rings busy when we tried to call back. We didn't answer either time.

Just curious, has anyone found out anything about 423-926-0014? I was called a few times from this number today. I looked up the area code and prefix and it seems to come from Johnson City, Tennessee. I also attempted to call it, but kept receiving busy signals.

i've been getting a call from: 877 415-3044 roughly 3 times per day for the past three days. the message on my answering machine is a series of beeps like a fax transmission. i switched over my phone to fax (as i rarely get faxes and only turn on if prompted), but no fax comes through. i will be blocking this number through my phone company, but the calls in the middle of the night are too much. thanks to this forum, which i located through a google search, i found out that it isn't an important call. rather another multi-level poisoning of our work force or something else just as worthless.

877-415-3044 is telemarketing from Discover Card. I have a box that can block specific numbers, fortunately. These goobers have called 21 times in the past month.

They'll never get through, though!

Received a call 4/4/2006 at 6:26PM from this number. Did not anwser it. Caller ID displayed TV SURVEY. Anyone have further info on this number since the last 2 posts?

hey, i recieved this weird call from a payphone number which was 1-780-473-6949. just wondering where it would be.

I have received numerous calls usually after 11.00pm or before 8.00am I think it is a sales company because they are constantly trying to fax me something.

call 410-754-9850 or 410-754-9857 ask if the the guard has some big chunks of crack for sale.

Almost every day I received hang up calls from a pay phone in the Chicago area. When I answer, someone is there, but they say nothing. When I don't answer, they allow my voicemail to pick up and then they hang up. Police won't help unless I go to the station in the vicinity of the pay phone. Then phone company will install a trap just to let me know that the calls are coming from, hello, a payphone. Is there any way to find out the physical location of the pay phone from where the calls are coming without all the reports, etc? The #s recently are 773-205-0982, 773-286-5279, 773-205-7286, 773-286-0678, 773-205-0568. HELP!

Ok here is the deal on 727-556-5492. It is a scam to steal your account information from various department stores.

The one I receieved was for Macy's. I finally got them to leave a message. The message directed me to call a 1-800 number which asked for my Macy's account number and social security number. I called Macy's and reported it to their fraud department (whom by the way, didn't take very much interest).

Since my phone company refused to block the call. I had to take matters into my own hands. Here's what you can do to stop the relentless phone calls:

If you have one of those Telezapper devices sitting around, hook it back up. The calls from this number are computer generated and the disconnect code the telezapper generates will take you off the list. If you don't have one, you can go to www.payphone-directory.org/sounds/mp3/gtenational/disconnected.mp3
Once you download the sound, with a halfway decent speaker play it into the mouthpiece of your phone when you get this call. It may take two or three tries since you may be on more than one list. Other than that, the calls should stop.

I received two calls today. 10:00 a.m. and 12:18 p.m. Very annoying.

I keep getting this call from a 423-926-0014 too! It's very annoying and I refuse to pick it up, but they won't stop calling.

I've been receiving calls from this number as well. They call every morning around 10 a.m. Although I have never picked it up, I thought it was strange and looked it up online.

You could block your caller ID from sending...and call them over and over and over. Its acutally kind of fun (already did it a few times). Course, I have the evening off and am in a mood to get even for everyone. You can probably download some auto dialers on your computer (for those that have dial up and are linked into the computer) and just harass them over and over and over. A hint...if you hit 0 # 0# 0 # over and over you go right to a customer service rep to bother them directly. This is of course theory only, I would NEVER advocate anything like this :)

Wow, Jason, same situation! For weeks, had millions of calls per day from 1-000-000-0000, no messages EVER, and then in the last few days it has changed to 800-424-5004. They call about 2 times an hour,, never leave a message. Psychos.

To stop these pesky calls from ruining my peace of mind I called my local police and asked them what to do. Ever so helpful, the officer took a complaint over the phone, gave me a complaint number, and instructed me to call my local telephone provider's annoyance call bureau. They can block all calls from that number. Problem solved!

this number calls me aleast 7 times a day.

These SAME jerks from 1-800-424-5004 have called me at least 20 times in the past three days. They called two days ago and asked for some "Angel" person, I said it was not me and that this was my cell phone and they said sorry to bother you. Then proceeded to call my cell phone TEN times yesterday. Today they have called me 6 times, and it's only 3 pm! I talked to two people with an Indian accent who gave me VERY american names, said they are from Chase Bank, when you call it says "Card Services" and "Customer Support." I told them (on 2 separate occasions) to delete the number but someone has called 2 more times. It is really annoying. I am not sure how to stop this. Yeah I could just hit ignore every time, but they still call back, and even if you answer it and curse at them, they STILL call back. I just want it to STOP! Can anyone help??

I've been recently bombarded from 605-990-0500 calls. A trace reveals: Ancom Inc, Mitchell, South Dakota of Ancom-DBA Mitchell Telecom. Am checking into it further.

Sometimes when you are receiving a call from someone on a payphone calling long distance, the caller ID displayed will NOT be from the phone. Most long distance calls are routed due to billing issues and as a result will not tell you even the town the call is coming from in most cases.

I have recieved 12 calls in the last two days from 1-800-424-5004. I never answer calls from mysterious numbers, so I let it go. However, they never leave a message. Here's a tip: if you don't leave a message, your phone number will always be mysterious, and I'll never answer. Anyhow, it appears that others have gotten harassing phone calls from India via this number. Apparently Chase Bank has farmed out their harassment calls to total jackass foreigners. BTW: jackass and foreigner are independent assessments, but these people are both.

So this is very weird, for the past week i have been being called by the numbers 1 800 424 5004 or a blocked caller id which is 0 000 000 0000 but now they dont block their calls anymore i have tried to figure out whats going on and what i have found is that the number belongs to Chase Bank in Delaware and its ALWAYS a lady with an indian accent... the weird thing is that i have called her and i asked for her name and all she said was "alice" which she was NOT an alice but yea THEN i asked for her supervisor and she kept asking for my chase bank number and i told her i didnt have a chase bank number and she asked for my social security number (YEA RIGHT) and right after that i asked to speak to her supervisor and she said she couldnt but didnt give me a good reason why, but i kept telling her to connect me to the supervisor, so she was like "ok" and she put me on hold. when i was taken off hold it was a lady with an indian accent.... and it sounded like she was trying to cover up her accent... she said her name was "claudia" but it was obvesly the same person as before.

IF ANYONE KNOWS WHAT I SHOULD DO OR IF YOU HAVE ANY INFO ON THIS LADY OR NUMBER PLEASE TELL ME ON HERE!

Some man from Pro Panama (786-437-6939) keeps calling my parents house asking for me. At least 2-3 times a day everyday. He say that he is a lawyer and needs to speak to me. He never wants to leave a message. I have never needed a lawyer, so I have no idea why he keeps calling for me. Does anybody know what this is about? Help!

Need to find location of pay phone in Milwaukee. Its 414-354-7267.

Like many others on this site, I have received numerous calls from 727-556-5492, which my caller ID identifies as FACS South. Finally, I got fed up and picked up the phone. A woman with a heavy accent asked for our daughter and when I said she did not live here, asked for a phone number where she could be reached and said this was a "personal business call." Of course, I did not give the number and she asked that I have my daughter call 1-800-950-0340. I called my daughter and asked her if she had any dealings with FACS South (Federated Department Stores) and she said no. So, I have reported both the 727 and the 800 numbers to the www.donotcall.gov site.

So, I searched this number now at gotollfree.com, and found that it is a Delaware number, and that it is Chase Bank. Thought this info might help some of you others out there who get calls from this same stalking toll free number.

So, I keep getting these calls this morning from this number, 800-424-5004. Quite interesting, because I google searhed this number and discovered someone else on this forum has been harrassed by this same line. I've never gotten any toll free calls in my dorm room, until today. He started calling as early as like 8 or 9 in the morning, and now it's only 11 am, and he's called like 6 times already!!! Never leaves a message on our machine. Next time I am confronting this person.

This number is based in Atlanta, Ga.

This number is based out of Clearwater, FL.

This number is based out of San Francisco.

i received two calls from this number...well i now know it's a pre-paid phone card that can be used from anywhere.

This Guy called us tonight, says he's a sheriff enroute to our house, with a summons to appear in court. He gave us a phone number and a case number and told us to call this guy. We call this guy, he's talking about some 15 -20 year old debt that his company just bought, and is now sueing us. We said sent the sheriff.....he never showed.

ON MARCH 22,10:50pm I RECIEVED A CALL FROM 415-656-1073.I WASN'T NEAR MY PHONE AT THE TIME SO IT WAS A MISSED CALL DOES ANYBODY KNOW ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THIS NUMBER.I TYPES IT INTO GOOGLE AND IT BRANG ME TO THIS WEBSITE WHERE I FOUND THE SAME NUMBER.SOMEONE PLEAE HELP!

I just got a call from 604-550-7000 6045507000 and I read on this website that it is used by an African scam artist working out of Europe. I did not answer the phone luckily but be careful everybody!

where is number 727 213 9122 from?

770-603-1022..WHERE IS THIS PHONE LOCATED?

i am trying to find the exact location of Bell Canada pay phone 416-232-9642. I know it's Etobicoke area but what is exact location? any ideas? thanks so much

I'm not sure if this would help but my business partner and I just got an 800# from kall8 company and one of the features was a one time fee for 10.00 dollars to not have pay phones call our number. And the reason she wanted it was for if the company had sombody go out to payphones and call peoples number to rack up charges. We are not saying that they are the ones doing it but if you sit back and listen to what you all are saying the only numbers they are calling are 800# besides a few cell phones isnt that a little fishy. So our advice is if you want to stop this if your company dont have that 10.00 feature to void pay phone calls then switch to kall8 its a very fair 800 company. When we started our company Diamond Grade Marketing we were getting flooded with calls til we started useing Kall8. If anybody wants more info on this go to www.diamondgrademarketing1.com and there is a message board there or you can sign up for the newsletter to privately give me your contact info you can request not to have newsletters sent to you thats not what this is about. Its just away to get in touch with me without posting it here and getting flooded with spam.

we get calls all hours of the day from this number the caller id says its PRO PANAM. does anyone know who they are or what they do? any info will be greatly appreciated!
thanks

If you know where this phone is please e-mail a_little_somethin2004@yahoo.com

Found a list of Locations for Van Ru Credit Collection Agency's 'Call Centers'. They have one located in Arizona.

They use a FAKE ph.# of 602-357-9922 to call you with. It shows up on your Caller ID as "Arizona Call", but the # CANNOT be called back.

Here's the website that lists all of their Call Center locations. There's one somewhere in Tempe.

http://www.vanru.com/Company/Locations.html

Maybe you can send a letter locally, and send a copy of your Photo ID or something along with it, to prove that they are bothering the wrong person, and ask them to Cease & Desist.

Maybe send the Letter 'Certified' mail along with a cc to your local Attorney General or someone. ??

You might also find this Law Suit against Van Ru interesting. It seems to be some sort of actual court transcript against Albert G. Rubin (Van Ru).

http://www.edcombs.com/CM/Opinions/opinions58.asp

602-357-9922 has been calling us for someone same name, but different middle initial for OVER A YEAR NOW!!! We just got another call from them last night.

I do NOT know how to get them to stop!

I see from previous Postings here, that 602-357-9922 is actually a Credit Collection Agency named Van Ru, out of Des Plaines, IL.

BUT they use a FAKE Arizona # on your Caller ID. I do not understand how it is Legal to do that??? How do you call back to get to someone at the top to tell them to STOP calling!! That they have the wrong person!!

They said they were calling about some 'fines'. When I said they had the wrong party, she said 'Are you sure?' I said yes. She said 'Positive?' I said 'yes, POSITIVE.'

But I know they'll be back again, & again & again. How to make them STOP?? Who do I have to call?? Attorney general? Who? Does anyone know?

Noticed a call from 605-990-0500 on our 800 bill. What is it?

I had my regular land-line phone switched over to a cell phone OVER a year ago.Its the same number so I still receive telmarketing calls on it all the time.Its sooo annoying!!Now I can't escape them even when I'm not at home!!You'd think that thier records would be updated and they shouldnt have me listed anymore.ITS A CELL PHONE!!The most resent number that has been poppin up is 206-415-8547.Who is that??Stop calling me!!

Hi everybody! I used to work for one company in Chicago. There is two payphone inside the work place. how ever, how do I findout about the workplace payphone number? is there a website link on finding out the payphone number? thanks for the time.

I just got a call from 727-556-5492 telling me my Macy's balance(which was wrong) and I was past due by 2 payments - also wrong!! That was the first alert. Then he wanted me to verify my address - I told him to tell me what address he had - he put me on hold - so I hung up & called back - all I kept getting was busy signals. I immediately called Macy's & of course they had no record of this. they have put alerts on my account. How do these people get away with this????

I, too, got the call from (727) 556-5492, twice now, on my work direct line. That is a Florida area code. Automated message claiming that Macy's is calling about an important personal matter. I am not calling back. I don't have a Macy's card, and I haven't even stepped foot in a Macy's in at least a year. This has to be a scam. If they keep calling I will notify the Florida Attorney General and the Florida Division of Consumer Services. These people are total bottom feeders. Never give out your sensitive personal financial information. If the call is legitimate, they already know that information anyway and should not ask you for it. Don't be afraid of the bastards!

For those of you interested in discovering who the 262-923-9922 number belongs to (CID says "Wisconsin number") belongs to, it is the Van Ru Credit Corporation in the state of IL.
Their web site is http://www.vanru.com/
The reason you cannot call back the number listed is because it is an outgoing call only VoIP number.

Does anyone know anything about this number. I get calls from this number every so often, and when I dial it back, it doesn't connect. Just curious as to what it's all about.

I got a call @ 9:10 am on 3/8/06 from this number and again this morning 3/9/06 @ 9:54 am. i have tried to call this number back numberous times and it is also busy. i want to know who it is and why are they calling? if you are getting calls from this number also please email me. thanks!

I keep getting calls from a phone number with a TN area code. I call it back, but it's just busy. I never receive the calls in time to amswer them, and no message is ever left, so I don't know if someone is just messing with me. Any ideas on how to either find out or to at least stop this?
Thanks-
Jenna

It appears this number is used for finding fax numbers. They appear to try the number to see if a fax answers. Must be a company that sells the number as a fax number list or a company that faxes junk faxes

i got my phone number while i lived in ny but i'm in richmond, va now. i've gotten four calls from these people in the past 16h. they were asking for info about my dad. just thought i'd add a post saying they've been harassing me as well.

Attn: Meydey....How can 727-556-5492 be validated by Macy's. I keep receiving calls from that number and I have nothing to do with Macys or any credit card for that matter. We are both being called by the same number that is supposedly affiliated with Macy's. It just cannot be, it still must be a hoax and I hope you still go through with the police report.
