How to stop telemarketers' calls with concealed caller ID's?

Someone is using my business number to spoof with?

  • I get at least 2 calls a week saying that my "business" number is on their caller id and they are returning the call. this cannot be.. first i have (thru my phone company) my business calls forwarded to my cell phone. second, there isnt even a phone in that wall jack for that number. third... i only deal with hospitals and wholesalers in my business..so i have no reason to call "people" .. i have called my phone company many times and they can only say that telemarketers are using my number to spoof call. IS THERE A WAY I CAN STOP WHOEVER IS USING MY NUMBER?? i get to speak to very interesting people and they all seem to understand, its just annoying :-( thanks

  • Answer:

    I am in the same situation with my business. I just had one of my business numbers disconnected today temperately because of this problem; it was a 1-800 number we owned. What has been happening for the past week is that we have received mutable calls from all around the united states from people telling us they either received a text or call on their caller I.D. that actually shows are phone number coming up. Are phone carrier that we rent the number from basically said there was nothing that they could do about it. I am still trying to find out how to report it and what measures can be taking to find out who is doing it and to file charges against the people doing this. It is very disruptive to our business.
