Are all 400 numbers legitimate?

The telephone number starting with 400 is a virtual telephone switchboard with a unified nationwide number designed by telecommunications operators specifically for enterprises and institutions. In order to improve the quality of customer service, most large domestic enterprises have opened 400 telephones as customer service hotlines. [Are all 400 phone numbers legitimate?] [WeChat: jimif1]

However, some criminals take advantage of the public's trust in 400 telephone numbers, build 400 telephone platforms or use arbitrary number display software to display the 400 numbers of large and formal enterprises such as banks to commit fraud, and some people fall into the trap without being careful.

The police especially remind the general public that the 400 hotline numbers of regular large enterprises are only used for called parties and will not be used for outbound calls, while government agencies will not use 400 numbers as service hotlines.

Therefore, if you receive a call from a number starting with "400", it is either an advertising sales call or a scam call, so just hang up!
