Did Zoom sell our number?

We have never received scam calls. As soon as we switched to Zoom, we started getting them. One of our employees called a number back and was scammed by (city) “police officers.” She lost 14k.

 

These scammers were knew enough about that employee to get her to pay “bond” to have a judge freeze warrants. What she allegedly did could have happened (failure to show up in court as a witness after signing a subpoena). 

 

Now we’re getting a lot more scam calls. Ugh. Thanks, Zoom (not).

 

I’ll check our phone privacy settings I thought I turned the correct spam filter on.

Spam Calls on Zoom Phone

We recently have had a couple of our users receive spam calls. 

 

Has anyone else been having this happen? 

 

I searched the website on how to set a Zoom phone to filter our spam calls, but did not find anything. 

 

Any advice here?

 

Thanks!

I dont have a phone number but i have 2 numbers for my employees. My question is how to set up voice mail for the user phone number. for ex by default i got an extension 800 (  owner) and when i go to phone settings under my extension is that like a generic voice mail for all the phone numbers or is there a separate voice mail for each user?

We have a Zoom meeting that most folks connect to via smartphone or computer. However, occasionally people need to dial in, bypassing the Internet. This means that the passcode has to be numeric. Upon testing, it seems that merely choosing the digits that correspond to the web meeting passcode does not work. There are two possiblities I see: either the web meeting passcode must be changed to numeric or else there is a separate numeric passcode.

 

How can I set a numeric passcode for dialing in, bypassing the Internet?

Has anyone had any success in using a third party queueing platform (we are find Zooms call queues quite limited). We are tying to have our queueing system forward to a Zoom shared line group but it doesn't appear to have the capability to "send busy signal" when all members of the group are in a call.  All the members of the shared group have the "When I'm busy on another call" setting set to "send busy signal" but this doesn't make a difference.

Using the * and # options in IVR

I've setup our calling tree and various auto receptionists. I have tried using the built-in options for the * and # keys hoping that one repeats the menu and the other returns to our main menu. 

When I've tested it, there is always a recording that comes up as a pre-recorded default, "If you know the extension for the party you want to reach"...

 

Am I missing something? I simply want the IVR to repeat or return to the main menu. I don't seem to have any options to bypass that one message or change it. I suppose I can have our IVR state, "press # twice to return to the main menu" but this seems strange. 

 

Thank you for any guidance or ideas!

Hello,

 

Currently, we have applications that can send SMS texts to cell phone numbers with common carriers such as Verizon, T-Mobile, etc.   How can I send an SMS text to a Zoom number?  I have an On-Call Zoom phone number that I use external contacts so the calls/messages are forwarded and must change the forwarding to a number each week depending on who is On-Call.  I would like to send an SMS text from the application to the Zoom phone so it is a one-time setup in the application.  Otherwise, I must change the application to send it to the on-call personal number every week.  Please let me know and thanks so much.

 

Jim Lucas
