I keep getting a call from this number multiple times a day repeatedly. I also get one from 804-335-0259. I have blocked both of these numbers since there is no name and they never leave a message. They start calling around 8:15am and end around 5:25pm. I was just on a phone call and my phone beeped. I looked and there were 5 (FIVE) blocked calls within 1 (ONE) minute. No voicemail was left of course. I googled the number and I am finding it looks like "Verizon Collections" but appears maybe some form of a scam. I used to work in collections in the state of Virginia - which the area these calls originate from is around Richmond, VA. The company I worked for taught us that Virginia law claims you cannot make more than one late call per week for collections. I know you cannot make multiple phone calls daily like this if it is in fact collections. It is considered harassment. My bill is up to date so, I highly doubt this is a legitimate phone call. I am keeping this number blocked and refuse to answer. If it is important, they can leave a message. BEWARE of these phone numbers!!!
Called twice today, never seen number before. Hasn't left message. Others are saying Verizon, but I pay my balance the day the billing statement drops, so it can't be debt collection. Assuming scam. Will block.
Just tried dialing back the number. Automatic messaging states: "We've identified your number as a Verizon wireless caller. If you are Robert Hyas, please remain on the line. If you're not a Verizon customer, press the star key now." I pressed the star key and the message states: "We need to update our records. Please hold as your call is being transferred." LOL, sure, Verizon doesn't even know their own customer? SCAM!!
