800-754-0961

I keep getting this call but my the voicemail message is only the last part stating the times and the #. They keep calling me!

Verizon financial department

I received a call from this number (8007540961) and spoke with someone who claimed to be from Verizon Wireless. Upon questioning the person calling, several red flags were raised. (I called Verison Wireless and this number is NOT associated with Verizon Wireless.) In fact the person who called stated that my account was past due and that the due date was such and such date. I knew better since I recently made a payment and the account is current. When I questioned if this person was in fact from Verizon Wireless, he stated that he was because he had my password. The password he gave me was not correct. Second red flag. I told this person that I will contact Verizon Wireless to clear this. He then stated for me to return his call at the 800 stated above. Third red flag. DO NOT GIVE ANY OF YOUR INFORMATION OUT TO THIS NUMBER, NOR DO NOT CONTACT THEM. This is an attempt to gain your personal information. I hope this helps.

they call me everytime i need to pay my bill.  and it always works. its just telling you that you need to pay

I just receivied a call from 949 286 3311 and a message was left for me to call 800 754 0961. I am so glad i checked out this number before calling. Thank you for this information

I also received a call from 949-286-3311 and the voice mail message told me to call 800-754-0961 regarding my Verizon service.  Very suspicious...

All the 949 numbers listed are from Verizon Wireless Financial Services. If you owe them money even when your service is still active the harass the hell out of you. After demanding that they stop for over 6 months I got nothing. The supervisor even lied to me about them having a fax number. All I would get in response was an explination of why the calls were happening. One day I some how got the manager at one of the stores to call the number and request the fax number for me. I have it.

The fax number to Verizon Wireless Financial Services is 1-908-306-5324. Fax them over a written letter asking them to stop calling. Include your number or account number. After recieving the fax, by law they must stop and they can be sued.

What a great class action lawsuit this would make huh?

Are you guys sure?  I got a call from them and I have no service with Verizon Wireless at all

I too got a call that the only part that was left was the 800 number.
it said it was from Verizon financial services and then asked me to enter
my mobile phone number a number of times.  I ignored that and finally got
a person who could not tell me who was using this company number because
"it's illegal" even though they called here but ssaid she'd delete this number off as a contact number.

Thanks for the info!

Yeah, it is Verizon Financial.
I went over on minutes and I refuse to pay my whole bill in
1 month......they can kiss my......I will use the fax #.
Good luck everyone!

From the other website on this, it's pretty clear that this is a phishing scam. Do not call the 1-800 number back or give any personal details away.

I was called by these scumbags yesterday (May 5th, 2008). Luckily I googled the number before bothering to call them.

i got this call too. first i thought ok, they just stated the time and number. the guy talking sounding kinda wierd so i googled it. and got this info. thanx.

I also received this phone call from 949-286-3311. Claiming they were from Verizon Wireless.Once I took that call I got suspicious. I did not release any information.I told them I would contact them myself, I ask for the ph #. He gave me #1800-754-0961. I'm glad I check here first.

this is verizon wireless. Called from a landline and its the financial services number

My business got a couple messages to call 800-754-0961 this week. We do not have any wireless service at all much less through Verizon.

I called the number back and the first time, there was no greeting other than "enter your mobile phone number." The second time I called, it was answered "Verizon Financial Services." The rep said that someone by the name of Javier Ramos gave them my number as their home #. I assume that Mr Ramos is behind on his bills because I have been getting other collection calls for him as well.

The rep said they would take the number out of the account. We'll see. They did not ask for any personal information at all though.

I got a call from this number, and I do not have Verizon now, and have never had Verizon so that tells me this number is basically a fraud.

I've gotten a couple of calls from the 949 286-3311 # and all the recording said was to call them immediately at the 1800 754 number.
This has never been the way Verizon has contacted me. I do have an account with them.
Crazily enough, I was recently in a chat room where this number, and it's questionable validity was being discussed and I actually recognized it!  I'm certainly not going to call, but they're using up my minutes!
All of these scams, what's next?

It's not a scam.  You people are paranoid.  It is Verizon!  If you don't have Verizon Wireless then it is entirely possible someone listed your number as an alternative contact number, now, or in the past.

You guys are Truly paranoid... It is verion.  I do have their service andI do use that number if my payment is gonna be late or i have to make payment arrangements...

This number keeps calling my cell phone and my daughters cell phone.
