I received my verizon telephone bill which had a collect call from Arizona on there charging me 15.00. I am a stay at home house wife, but during certain hours I am not home due to picking my children up from school. I leave home at 2:40 everyday to pick up my children and my husband is still at work. This collect call came in at 2:58 which noone was home at the time the call came through, but I am being charged for it. The number given to me to call about this situation kept transfering me to another number which then disconnected the call by saying the mail box was full and could not accept any messasges at this time. I then went online to pull up OSP Communications and found many sites complaining about fraud. I called verizon to speak with the fraud department and they put on a block but told me they could not do anything about the 15.00 charge that was already on my bill. I was told to call the FTC, Federal Trade Commissioner, when I spoke with them they told me if we could get enough complaints on this company they would be able to take proper action to ensure that it does not happen to anymore innocent victims. Therefore, if anyone happens to see an out of state collect call on there phone bill that they know was not accepted, and OSP Communications has something to do with it, call the FTC and file a complaint and maybe together we could avoid this in the future.
