It could look kind of like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXcvwr6AI3yXWmwWzSygkOTzPBLM8POj19Lu_kXfNovZtROM6WHQYZInJhxGJ9N_iW3fD8eXKvfpkmfKRgcU2hfO651gOCM2_ycqLhjnVHc-M6Osdcp-nrpVN9SSGyK7Dz-Gm0U?key=88Q5ZSKz0AaUvNdWWj09JDpj\" alt=\"'V' Numbers on Caller ID\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>(<strong>Sidenote:<\/strong> if you stumbled across this article cause you\u2019re actually just looking for a phone number with a V in it, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.numberbarn.com\/vanity-phone-numbers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">we have those too<\/a>! Scroll ahead for more info on those.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What the heck is this &#8216;V&#8217; number, and what does it mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, there\u2019s a short answer, and a long answer. Here&#8217;s the short answer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A long number with a \u201cV\u201d in the front is more times than not a robocall, or someone trying to solicit you<\/strong>. (This doesn\u2019t guarantee that it\u2019s spam, but it often is!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But then there\u2019s the <strong>long answer!&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What you\u2019re <em>literally <\/em>seeing are the \u201cnaked\u201d components of a caller ID.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cV\u201d actually stands for \u201cverified,\u201d which isn\u2019t necessarily as comforting as it sounds!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this context, it simply means that the telecom provider they are calling from falls in line with their standards for, well, merely existing. (For example, they are calling using the same provider as you.) The \u201cV\u201d is an internalized attempt by phone providers to note what they deem to be real numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rest of the numbers? That&#8217;s what\u2019s known to a computer as a \u201cCaller ID Name\u201d or &#8220;CLID&#8221;. This is different from the caller ID you may have heard of, though related. Caller ID Name (sometimes &#8220;CNAM&#8221;, just to be even more confusing) refers to the displayed name that is associated with a phone number.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why would scammers use a V number?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spammers and robocallers often use tactics that try to shield their identity by randomizing their number or altering their caller ID information in ways that are sometimes complex, and sometimes simple. Whether it\u2019s on purpose or not, sometimes what is delivered to your caller ID system is not a randomized number, but the information that the system is receiving. Hence, the \u201cV\u201d and the long number!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Could a \u201cV\u201d number be legitimate? Sure, in theory! However, in practice, more times than not, it\u2019s not the product of a poorly configured Caller ID situation, but the result of a brute force attempt at getting calls out into the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>New updates on the V numbers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you used to see the V often, but then stopped seeing it on your caller ID, we\u2019ve got some guesses on that too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To go into the long answer even more, a few years ago the telecom industry introduced a major regulation to phone carriers, called &#8220;STIR\/SHAKEN&#8221;. (Unfortunately, they weren\u2019t asking how you\u2019d like your martini.) &#8220;STIR\/SHAKEN&#8221; is actually an <a href=\"https:\/\/support.outplayhq.com\/en\/article\/understanding-stirshaken-regulations-a-comprehensive-guide-1gnvmbr\/#:~:text=STIR\/SHAKEN%2C%20an%20acronym%20for%20%22Secure%20Telephone%20Identity%20Revisited%22%20and%20%22Signature%2Dbased%20Handling%20of%20Asserted%20information%20using%20toKENs%2C%22%20is%20a%20framework%20developed%20to%20combat%20caller%20ID%20spoofing%20and%20restore%20trust%20in%20caller%20identification%20systems.\">acronym<\/a> for &#8220;Secure Telephone Identity Revisited&#8221; and &#8220;Signature-based Handling of Asserted information using toKENs,&#8221; which is basically a framework developed to combat Caller ID spoofing and restore trust in caller identification systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fcc.gov\/call-authentication#:~:text=The%20STIR\/SHAKEN%20framework%2C%20an%20industry%2Dstandard%20caller%20ID%20authentication%20technology%2C%20is%20a%20set%20of%20technical%20standards%20and%20protocols%20that%20allow%20for%20the%20authentication%20and%20verification%20of%20caller%20ID%20information%20for%20calls%20carried%20over%20Internet%20Protocol%20(IP)%20networks.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The FCC mandated STIR\/SHAKEN implementation by 2021<\/a> with the intention of getting a better handle on something called &#8220;Caller ID spoofing&#8221;, which is basically a spam or robocall that impersonates, or spoofs, a legitimate phone number.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s been a few years since STIR\/SHAKEN essentially shook up the telecom industry (cell carriers, VoIP and any provider offering voice had to change a lot of their existing systems in order to reach compliance with this mandate.) Now that the dust has settled more with STIR\/SHAKEN, there\u2019s a bit of industry debate about its effectiveness. But what we <em>do<\/em> know is that it seems like there are far less people getting V\u2019s in their caller ID.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do about V callers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re having issues with \u201cV\u201d calls spamming you, NumberBarn has <a href=\"https:\/\/help.numberbarn.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360055113773-Blocking-spam-calls-texts?campaignid=190305805&amp;adgroupid=55230571859&amp;network=g&amp;device=c&amp;matchtype=&amp;keyword=&amp;utm_campaign=park-and-forward&amp;utm_content=&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiArKW-BhAzEiwAZhWsIKnhWJKG8fNa9gOCT-tfvRZon5Cqmz1ar6rhx-dW9TDqronfNZuNmxoCLlMQAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">handy spam blocking features<\/a> on all numbers supported by us.
