Please add:

1-418-122-1941
1-876-346-5056
1-876-473-2215*
1-876-598-3983*
1-876-504-7396* These last 3 are clearly a boiler room given the noise in the background and they try to sell you some raffle crap.
1-202-840 -6553 This is a displayed number but if you try to call back a message comes on saying unable to connect.

Thanks

Don't call back to 876 to check up on them - it is an area code in Jamaica. Sonic's rate is $0.25/min.

From the Better Business Bureau :
http://www.bbb.org/northern-alabama/new ... area-code/

An excerpt from above link :
Area code 876 is the area code for Jamaica, and is one of the most common areas for telemarketing scams. Due to the ongoing nature and the number of Jamaican telemarketing scams, law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and Jamaica work together in a project called JOLT (Jamaican Operations Linked to Telemarketing). The purpose of JOLT is to try to shut down these telemarketing scams in Jamaica that target US citizens.

Got woken up at 5AM by the classic "The IRS is going to prosecute you for not paying your taxes" in a woman's automated voice.

REALLY want these calls to stop. We are getting much more of these after switching to Sonic than we did with ATT, so please do something!

The number is 606-782-4593

800-743-5000 -- it's a fake PGE number. They call, demand payment for unpaid bills. PGE has a post about it on their page: https://www.pge.com/en_US/residential/c ... scams.page

But that number is PG&E's legitimate number. It's being spoofed by the scammers. If Sonic blocks incoming calls with that number, then the legitimate calls also get blocked.

Yeah, I got calls reporting to be from that number and so I looked it up - it is PG&E's real number. It should NOT be blocked.
