181 different phone numbers from 201-228-1000 to 201-228-1999 have been reported to the FTC, with 247 complaints in total, 1 of them in the last 90 days. No single number in the block has more than 3 complaints, so looking up one number on its own understates how often this block appears in reports. 60% of the complaints describe "Reducing your debt (credit cards, mortgage, student loans)". Reports came from 38 states, most often California, New Jersey and Texas. The earliest complaint on record is from August 8, 2020 and the most recent from August 21, 2026.
Complaints are filed by consumers with the FTC and are not verified. Callers often spoof numbers, so a number listed here may have been faked by a caller rather than used by the person or business it is assigned to. Many complaints spread across consecutive numbers can point to one calling operation rotating through a block, but this page does not identify who placed the calls. How we source this data.
