Just got a call from the same number. The message I received told me to log onto verizonthankyou.com for a $100 towards my next phone bill. I checked it out and as much as I could tell the page was a mirror image of the actual verizon website. The difference was in the log in menu, which looked similar to Verizon's site, but asked for more info. The links on this fake page seem to send you to the real Verizon page from what I could tell.
Got a call to a couple of my cell phones offering $100 off by going to "www.verizoncashbonus.com"; very impressive web site - looks just like Verizon Wireless. Called Verizon later confirmed it was a scam.
Just got the call -
was for verizonbonus,com and offered a $100 bonus, they are scamming for our login PINs
Called Verizon and the number is based in Denver, assuming it's not being spoofed.
Checked the domain... not registered.
My wife a call from that same number a couple of hours ago, 303-731-3432. I called Verizon and reported it as fraud/phishing. The Verizon customer service person had not heard of this scam, but took down the information to send to their fraud department.

The recorded message said “This is Verizon Wireless. You have been selected to receive a $100 bonus. To claim your bonus, log in to www.verizoncashbonus.com “
I reported this to Verizon Wireless.
It is a Phishing scam designed to get your user name and password.
I live in north Dallas (Texas) and just got the same type of automated call today. The info requested is userid or cell #, password, PIN or last 4 of SSN ! I verified with Verizon it's NOT from them. Weird thing is that I just now got a TXT message on my phone about winning a $500 gift card from Target. The txt has stated: "Your entry last month has WON! Go to http://www.target.com.wphd.biz/?claimid=111 and enter your winning code: 6655 to claim your free $500 Target Giftcard!" Target said it is a scam.
