Called Sprint/Nextel ( I do have their service). This number comes up as Verizon wireless. The person assisting me in customer service was very nice and went on to the web address: fonefinder.net. Sure enough, it lists as Verizon out of Philadelphia. She deducted that they were saying they are Sprint/Nextel when customers are upset at the repeated phone calls. Makes no sense, does it? Hope this helps everyone, possibly one could call Verizon and get the Philly number and demand they stop harassing us and pretending to be Sprint. Good luck everyone!
I called nextel/sprint they were not aware of this number being affiliated with them. The rep tried to call the number and got the busy signal as well. She transfered me to their fraud department(which was closed). The caller from the number acted like they new about my account then turned around and kept asking me info that Nextel/ Sprint would already know.
I am a verizon customer on a family plan and not I but everyone on the plan has been gettin numerous calls. There alot nicer than I am and pick up unknown numbers even if it's a recogizable number they know isn't a friend famliy or co worker. It is getting to be a nusense and is taking up minutes and our time.
