I believe someone has gotten a cell phone under my name in another state (I have a very unusual name, no way there is another person named the same as me) and I’d like to find out which phone company the phone number is through. So far I know it’s a cell phone #. I even tried reverse lookup but they didn’t give me the info I was looking for.
ok.. there are a couple of ways to check this out but this one will probably work the best. It does involve some leg work on your part. Start by calling "the biggies" i.e. Verizon 18009220204 customer service, give them the # they will then ask for the name and the last 4 of your social for verification. Right off the bat, if the number is NOT theirs, it won’t populate in their computer system, in fact I think when you call, you’ll get an automated lady… punch in the the cell #… if it’s VZW, you can proceed, if not the automatron will say "sorry… etc" Then call AT&T 1-800-331-0500 go through the same process… in fact, I think on the verizonwireless.com site, you can type in a number to see if a customer is "in" That will at least confirm if it’s a vzw number. Call Sprint, etc repeating the process as you go… So, once you’ve figured out which carrier it is, you can request a cust service rep transfer you to the fraud department to report this…
Good Luck!!!
