    919-741-6730

    I've been getting calls from this number on my cellphone at all hours of the night. No one says anything. I googled the number and you wouldn't BELIEVE the number of complaints there!!! I called T-Mobile to see if the call can be blocked and they said that the cellphone I have now doesn't have that capability. I CAN, however, buy a "Samsung Blaster" that does have the capability. It'd cost me $149. Or, I can wait until December and get a really good deal on it when I renew my contract.

    Has anyone else here been getting calls from this number? I'd be curious to know. It is VERY annoying!!

    T-Mobile is full of BS, they completely have the capability to block certain numbers from calling you, especially due to harassment, and no you do not have to "buy" a special phone just to do it. Now sometimes you have to have a court order, and those details I am unsure of.

    Donna ~ Could you go back and edit the title of this thread to indicate the correct number? I would hate for people to dial the wrong number and badger this poor woman.

    Now, if they want to call the correct number and badger that person, I'm all for it.


    OOPS! You must have been doing that as I was posting. Thanks!

    The revised number is a Verizon Wireless cell phone out of Raleigh, NC.
    Maybe you should file a complaint with Verizon Wireless (personally, I have found Verizon Wireless to be one of the better cell phone companies to deal with on a professional level, so it may do some good).

    I'm filing a formal complaint with the Raleigh Police Department. I already called them and they're going to call back and take a statement.

    When I went into free reverse phone numbers, and got the same thing, Ginger's Mom. Let's see what happens.

    My dad just got a T-Mobile cellie a few weeks ago. He had 5 or 6 wrong number calls yesterday -- he called T-Mobile to see if they could deduct those calls from his bill.

    Donna I just did a search and it seems that is number is originating from a pc. It seems they are using a program that does this kind of thing. For what purposes who knows. But it seems this same number is called a load of people all over the United States and Canada at all hours of the night and day. I hope the police can track down where or from whom it is coming.

    Before I switched to Verizon, I was getting annoying long messages about campaigning. Since I've switched to Verizon, I don't have that. It seems they were coming from a company paid to do that and since it involved campaigning, they were somehow exempt from the do not call list

    Jessika, you may want to remove that info from your post, too.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Val,

    I was just going to suggest to Jessika the same thing. I'd hate to have this poor woman inundated with unwanted phone calls.

    PCs can be set up with programs that fax/dial all night to a preset calling or faxing list.

    Verizon would have to know who it is! Will the police call them or do the people who are getting the calls have to do it?

    UPDATE - oovoo.com Feedback Page

    ETA: oovoo.com Feedback Page: http://www.oovoo.com//about/feedback.aspx

    Some links on this number. I googled "Verizon" followed by the phone number, and got four results.

    The first result was THIS THREAD! lol

    http://whocallsme.com/Phone-Number.aspx/9197416730

    From that link:
    ZAD-Man is right

    THIS IS THE DEFAULT NUMBER FOR A VIDEO CHAT SOFTWARE CALLED OOVOO.COM
    There is a bit of info here...aside from a troll in three comments, it seems a place to report the number: http://whocalled.us/lookup/9197416730

    I've been getting an "Unlisted" number calling me all the time (not overnight thankfully). An "800" number too. I just ignore it. They never leave a voicemail.

    I never answer if it's a number I don't know. I just turn off the ringer and let them leave a message if they want.

    The Raleigh PD called me back while I was on my way to work. The officer took all the information and gave me a case number and a phone number to call next week to see who the detective on the case is. This is gonna be interesting.
