Expert Opinion
Unexpectedly, the number 866‑840‑4246 keeps appearing as a Progressive‑branded caller asking for driver’s license details. Most callers report a robotic intro, a claim that an out‑of‑state license is on file, and a request for birthdate or SSN‑last‑four. Progressive itself states it never asks for personal data via unsolicited calls, and verified customers confirm no record of outbound outreach. Key red flags include pressure to verify, lack of a policy number, and a voicemail that provides a “message code.” If you receive this call, hang up, log in to your account or call the official Progressive number to confirm any request.

A call was received yesterday, but it disconnected immediately after the voicemail picked up
They claimed to be Progressive Insurance, asking to verify my driver's license, but i think it was a scam
The caller claimed to represent Progressive Insurance, asking me to verify my driver's license by providing my Date of Birth. However, when I inquired about the purpose of the call, the representative couldn't provide a clear explanation. I then contacted Progressive directly, and they found no record of any outgoing calls to me.
It's uncertain whether this is actually Progressive; regardless, as a precaution, I never respond to automated calls, suspecting phishing attempts, and instead would expect legitimate communication via email, prompting me to contact them directly through their official website.
A claim of representation from Progressive Ins. was made, requesting a driver's license number, which raises suspicions of a potential scam, especially considering the recent acquisition of a new license in another state.
The caller from this number represented Progressive Insurance and needed my updated information for my vehicle
