Call offering 45.00

[Brnpeterson1]

Me and my wife received calls from 1-866-866-7509 saying to log in to our verizon account and receive 45.00.  I checked the number, and it goes back to sprint wireless.  Anyone else receive a call like this?

There are several other threads and posts about this.

It's just a scam trying to get your account information.

Thanks.  It's really strange as both of us received calls, a day apart.

I got the same call this morning

I received two calls this AM from 800-272-7249, requesting that I go to www.vzw361.com to be awarded my $361. Is that the same fraudulent website that you were requested to go to?

I got a missed call from 800-600-6358 at 7:15 am then got another call from the same number at 7:35 am. I got the same info as You. $361 & www.vzw361.com

SUGGESTION: BLOCK the number

Contact Customer Care at 800-922-0204 and report the call. They are just wanting to obtain your information which can be a big pain for you in the end. Report it, Get the number blocked and you shouldn't have to deal with it anymore.

Hope this helps,

Received same call from 800 922 0204.  Was suprised because Verizon doesn't offer you anything. When my contact is up I am never going to go with Verizon for anything.  A loyal customer from the beginning.

My husband and I both got 2 calls 10AM and 6 PM from 800 922 0204 for  $45.00 off my next bill. How come I didn't get $361? Anyway we didn't go to the website but the seems to be a valid Verizon number.

I talked to a Verizon rep. today because I got the same call and the number was a Verizon number they were calling from but it is not Verizon. The scammers are cloning the Verizon numbers. DO NOT SIGN INTO TO ANY WEB SITE OR GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION.  Verizon is aware and working on fixing the problem.
