Who calls from a 483 number
NANPA records the carrier each block of 483 numbers is assigned to. Of the 24,000 483 numbers assigned, 92% are with cable, internet-calling, business and other carriers (Onvoy, Ahoi and Wide Voice); 8% with mobile carriers (Verizon Wireless).
That is who the numbers were assigned to: people keep their number when they change carrier, so any one number may have moved since.
| Carrier | Kind | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Onvoy | Cable, VoIP, other | 33% |
| Ahoi | Cable, VoIP, other | 21% |
| Wide Voice | Cable, VoIP, other | 17% |
| Intrado Communications | Cable, VoIP, other | 13% |
| Opentact | Cable, VoIP, other | 8% |
| Verizon Wireless | Mobile | 8% |
An area code says where a number was issued, not where the caller is: people keep their numbers when they move, and caller ID can be set to show any number, which the FCC calls spoofing. If a call you did not expect asks for money or personal details, the FCC advises hanging up and calling the company back on a number you look up yourself. Unwanted calls can be reported to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.
