Hello. please block 323-330-1426, identified as Heritage on cid. Received multiple calls on vm (hangups). Internet search finds other cases.

Thanks,
Jeff

I'm being barraged by calls from 800-466-4427, IDed just as TOLL FREE CALL. Some online notes link it with some political campaign in Wisconsin. (Go figure.) Please consider blocking.

It would be lovely to have an option on the member tools page to block 8** and 9** calls.

Second that proposal. We get spam calls from 888, 877, and 800 numbers all the time. Sonic, please consider this!

Thanks,
N.H. Schroder

Please block 888-710-6817. We get several calls a day from that number and would just as soon never hear the phone ring again.

Thanks,
N.H. Schroder

For the past two weeks or so I have been receiving a call each morning from:

925-298-4972

No one is on the line if I pick it up to tell them to stop calling. If I call it back, the OGM identifies the caller as MRS. I have not waited for anyone to come on the line after placing this call.

Thanks

We regularly get calls from Homeworks at 408-428-9286. We have asked them to stop. They persist. Please add this company to the spam list.

"... scammers use the Internet to send huge volumes of calls at the same time. Many of the attacks bombard individuals with automated requests for personal data, in a variation of their email-scam cousins. But others are more vicious, flooding entire phone systems when demands are not met, similar to some attacks against websites...

804-441-7231

a widely reported federal contracts scam, calling at strange hours.

Call identified in Sonic's email as being from "SPRINT [480-263-4025]" but not really

Message says it is Sprint calling for "Alma Mohica" with an urgent message about wireless service ending in 1231

Requests a return call to 1-800-568-1719

I found 480-263-4025 by searching Google -- people say these are not Sprint numbers, it's a scammer.


Question to Sonic -- can we paste in or otherwise attach voicemail messages to reports here or somehow?

The business I work for receives phone calls from this number at least once a day. When I call their number it says that this number is currently not in service. No one will talk and after you answer they disconnect the call. It would be nice to get this number blocked as it interrupts our clients trying to call in.
