Imagine getting a call from 800‑288‑2020 and the voice claims to be from AT&T. Many consumers report similar unsolicited outreach that ranges from harmless appointment reminders to full‑blown spoofing scams. Because the number is widely used by both legitimate AT&T support and fraudulent callers, treat any request for personal data—account numbers, SSNs, or passwords—with caution. Hang up, look up the official AT&T contact on the company’s website, and verify the request directly. Register the number with your carrier’s do‑not‑call list or use a call‑blocking app. Stay alert, and never share sensitive info over an unexpected call.
A call was received from this number outside of regular US business hours, around 6AM, from a lady with an Oriental sounding accent who was difficult to understand, asking for my husband before abruptly hanging up upon hearing 'Military'.

The identity of the caller is unknown.

Some guy with a thick accent, soundin kinda robotic, claim to be from directv, told me i would get a discount, but i didnt understand him, he want me to pay two month up front, but i say no and he hang up
During an online 'chat' session with Directv, I was provided with this number, which supposedly connects to the ATT Rewards Center; when I called, they offered me a gift card and discounts in exchange for a magazine subscription and auto services
A person with a thick Indian accent, claiming to be from AT&T, attempted to convince me that they needed to access my computer to uninstall a program and provide a refund, which raised significant red flags.
Following a text message, I made a call that was transferred to a different department, but the purpose of the call remained unclear, leading to disconnection.
This is a fraud call, they are trying to pretend to be from At&t or somethin
It was obviousley a sales pitch.
Over the past week, this number has attempted to contact me multiple times, for which I am grateful for the scam alerts that have been provided. Generally, if a caller does not leave a voicemail, it is a sign of malicious intent.
The person on the phone claimed to be from ATT and stated that they needed to access my computer to fix a internet problem, but i didnt belive them and hung up
A spam call was received, requesting that I provide numbers to stop further calls, which is likely a tactic to gather more information.
This number is definitly not att, its some kind of scam.
Verizon is have by AT and T.
it say to update my account informations
A scam call was received, claiming an AT&T account had been frozen, despite never having had such an account
Upon receiving this call, I found a voicemail claiming our AT&T account had been suspended, which is amusing since we cancelled our account years ago after ditching our landline, clearly indicating a scam
A message was received from this number, listed as belonging to AT&T, but the content of the message is unclear.
The provided number is 800-288-2020
The number seemed familiar when it appeared on my cell phone, but after rejecting the call and reading the comments here, I realized it was likely a spoofed AT&T number, as I don't use my cell for their customer service.
I received an uninvited call from this number on my cell phone, which I consider an invasion of privacy.
A call was received at 9:04 pm claiming my AT&T account had been suspended, despite not having an account with the company, and subsequent calls led to automated attendants that were unhelpful
An automated recording was left in my voicemail, stating that my account had been suspended and instructing me to return the call to resolve the issue.

Definately, this is not at&t. It is most definetly a scammmer. They called me at midnigth twice in a row. Thougtis was my momin hospital. . Do not ansfer these calls or ever give out personel info..its a scamm!
The actual number I intended to report was 800-288-2020, which I failed to mention initially
Two calls were received from this number, identified by Hiya as Legacy Home Solutions, with an AT&T logo, although the second call left a choppy, computerized voice message that seemed to be a scam, as it mentioned reactivating a non-existent account
It's evident that this is not an AT&T call, as carriers do not ask security questions over the phone; this is a phishing scam to steal personal and financial information.
To correct my previous statement, the actual number in question is 1-800-288-2020
