How to stop referral service telemarketers from bothering you!
Summary — +18002556987
Expert Opinion
Hang up. The calls from 1‑800‑255‑6987 are repeatedly identified as personal‑injury referral telemarketing. They often claim to represent a lawyer or a legal consulting firm and ask for a direct attorney contact. Because the caller never provides verifiable credentials, treating the interaction as a potential data breach is prudent. Do not disclose client names, case details, or internal contacts. Use call‑blocking tools, add the number to your Do‑Not‑Call list, and report the nuisance to the FTC and FCC. Verify any legitimate outreach through known channels before returning a call, and train staff to recognize caller‑ID spoofing and unsolicited solicitation.
