What the FTC reports show

The most commonly selected subject in those reports was impostor calls (government, businesses, family or friends) (42 of 102).

Reports over the last 7 days are roughly in line with the 30-day pace. In the last 7 days there were 19 reports, 19 marked as a recorded message or robocall.

(877) 556-9255 is a toll-free number. Businesses usually pay for toll-free numbers, but caller ID can be faked, so a toll-free number on its own does not prove who placed a call.

We have not independently verified the company or person controlling this telephone number. Consumers choose the subject category themselves when they file a report, and a number on caller ID can be spoofed.

We investigate calling practices that may affect many people at once, which is the kind of case that can be brought as a class action. FTC reports alone can't show whether that is happening here. Details from people who actually received these calls, like what the recording said and who it asked for, can.

If you're getting these calls

  • Keep every voicemail. Don't delete them, even the annoying ones. Recorded voicemails are some of the best evidence there is.
  • Write down the name the recording asks for, the company it mentions, and any callback number it gives.
  • Screenshot your call history showing the dates and times this number called.
  • Don't give them personal or account information. If you tell them to stop or that they have the wrong number, note the date and how you did it.

About this data

These figures summarize the Federal Trade Commission's Do Not Call complaint data. Each report is a consumer's complaint. The FTC does not verify individual Do Not Call complaints, and neither do we. We don't publish anything that could identify the people who filed them. A report is not proof that any law was broken. We update this page each time the FTC releases new data.

Across all FTC data we hold, this number has 151 reports, the first filed August 24, 2026.
