I had a Robo-call saying Verizon was suspending my number for fraudulent activity.  Press 1 to login, then it asked for my zip, pin, last four of social.  As I was suspicious, and knew I would get a chance to re-enter wrong info; I entered incorrect info to all prompts.  Then it stated all cleared up.  BEWARE!!

It didn't work for the last two calls I received.  So let's ask the important question again since you are clearly avoiding the question.

How can we report these numbers to you?

Let me make it more specific... 

What phone number or email address can we use to report these so that you will add them to your call id block service?

Concerned Verizon customers are trying to do the right thing and protect others and you are beating around the bush with asking questions and not answering the question.

We always want to help in any way that we can Stephen3256. We understand this is frustrating. If we are asking questions, it is just to make sure we are supplying correct information. Just to clarify, did you speak with a caller from this number? Did you provide them any information?

At 5:10 pm Mar.26 I got a scam call from ‭+1 (800) 922-2676‬. It was a robo call telling me my acct had been suspended and to enter my PIN. I hung up after that. How do we report these to Verizon? No easy way to discover in searching Verizon.com

Breezywag, 

 

We understand that these calls can be scary at best. We do have teams that constantly monitor these types of calls. They are difficult to research due to the method called Spoofing. The incoming call info is hidden and cannot be easily traced and usually changed regularly.

I am receiving spam calls that are warranty scams from Verizon customer cell phones. This needs to stop.

The Verizon spam filter doesn't work on these calls.
