Stange call that may be phishing for personal information. As soon as I pick it up it said "oops sorry wrong number" and then hung up on me. May be checking to see if it can find real numbers in use.

It turns out that nearly HUNDREDS of people have been bothered by this caller. I've learned that the number, 402-998-5021, is carried by Bandwidth.com. To report the number as suspicious, you have to go to www.bandwidth.com, go to the bottom of the page to the tab reading "Acceptable Use Policy" and fill out a complaint form. (Calling Bandwidth to complain is apparently pointless unless you've filled out a complaint form first.) I hope that this helps.

Weird radio style voice that said hello and then hung up on me. Research shows it's very common call. Prankster or some kind of problem with wrong numbers during a sales campaign.

Automated voice says; " I'M SORRY i MUST HAVE THE WRONG NUMBER AND THEN HANGS UP ABRUPTLY"
I expect this is a computer automated system which calls random numbers until a live voice answers. At that point your (my) number is recorded for sale/distribution to telemarketers and scammers.
When I googled this number I found that many others had the same complaint going back almost a year. Why isn't someone policing this misuse?

Caller called around 9:30 am with same MO "I must have the wrong number then hung-up. I suspect its NSA or some other governmental agency since I do precinct work and yesterday called my city council on Agenda 21 being implemented under Urban renewal and also Colorado Springs Forward which has similar green energy programs posted with the Sierra Club and other NGO's giving green initiatives to our county under the "green banner"

I don't recommend anyone pick up the phone for this number. I have done research on the number and the company behind it claims to be one of the biggest telemarketing database companies in America. So if you pick it up you may be verifying yourself for their database and be unwittingly making yourself available for a lot more calls.

I think these people are looking to confirm your phone number and then sell it. They apologize for calling the wrong number when they call. This is very odd for someone to do on a massive scale. Why is everyone getting this? Must be an organized caller looking for people to answer their phone to confirm real people and then sell the confirmed numbers to other companies.

I just got a call from this number today. I also got an apology and then he hung up. I'm on a DoNotCall registry. Doesn't that make it impossible for them to call with out ID?

Called my house phone on 1/25/16 and again on 1/26/16 both times around 8:00 PM. Did not answer because it came up "Unknown Name" on the caller ID. I also got rid of my answering machine last year because of callers like this. Since then I receive only a very limit number of phone calls like this. If you don't recognize the number - don't answer. Family and friends have my cellphone number.

I have to answer every call that comes into the office, even though I know better for most calls because of caller ID. I tend to wait before I speak as a lot of the robo calls are voice activated. This one took me by surprise with speaking "Oh I am sorry I think I have the wrong number" took me by surprise and silly me said "that's ok".
