Reported numbers
Numbers people have reported repeatedly.
Some telephone numbers appear in the Federal Trade Commission's public complaint record week after week, in groups that share a prefix. These pages report what that record contains. They are not accusations, and the FTC does not verify the reports it receives.

How a group gets listed
Four things have to be true, and most reported numbers never satisfy them.
- The numbers have to be traceable. Ordinary caller ID is routinely forged, so a heavily reported local number may belong to somebody whose line was used without their knowledge. Only toll-free numbers and short codes, which are registered and cannot be forged the same way, are listed.
- Reports have to persist. A single busy week is not a pattern.
- The calls have to be ongoing. When they stop, the page goes.
- The numbers have to share a registrant. Otherwise a shared prefix is a coincidence of numbering rather than anything connected.
If a number here is yours
These pages report complaint counts from a public federal dataset and make no claim about who holds a number or what they did. If a listing looks wrong, the sources and corrections page explains how to raise it, and a disputed listing comes down while it is looked at.
