What to do
- 1
Do not call back a number you do not recognize. If the caller said they were your bank, a company or a government agency, hang up and call them on a number you find yourself: on your statement, your card or the official website.
- 2
If a recording tells you to press a key to stop the calls, just hang up. Scammers use that trick to find people who answer.
- 3
Never pay because a caller insists on gift cards, a wire transfer, cryptocurrency or a payment app. The FTC says anyone who insists on those is a scammer.
- 4
Report it. Lost nothing: DoNotCall.gov. Lost money, or know who called: ReportFraud.ftc.gov. You can also file with the FCC at fcc.gov/complaints. Give the number on your caller ID even if you think it was faked.
- 5
Block the number on your phone and turn on your carrier’s free spam blocking. AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile all offer a free tier.
- 6
Already paid? Contact the company behind the payment right away (your bank, card issuer, payment app, gift card or wire transfer company) and ask for your money back. Then report it at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Line number
Who holds it is not in any public record
This exchange is pooled: NANPA hands its numbers out in blocks of 1,000, so another carrier may hold this number's block.
What this page cannot tell you
- Whether the reports are true. The FTC and the FCC publish what consumers told them and say they do not verify it.
- Whether this number really made the call. Caller ID can be faked, and the faked number often belongs to a real person who has no idea it is being misused.
- Who uses the number. NANPA records show the carrier that holds the exchange, not the person or business behind a number, and pooled exchanges are shared out to other carriers in blocks of 1,000 numbers.
Is this your number?
Callers can fake any number, including yours. If people report calls you never made, someone may be spoofing your number. Write to contact@beforeyoucallback.com from the account holder's side: we can remove the complaint details from this page. What to do if your number is spoofed.
