Random letter from Credit & Order Operations

I got a letter saying that they had approved my application for wireless service. I never put in an applications nor do I wish to change my service. I don't know who to talk to about this and calling the customer service line only gets me disconnected due to the fact that I'm not a customer.

As did I. I have never been a Verizon Wireless customer, nor have I wanted or applied to be. Yet I received a letter, via USPS, regarding approval of "my recent application for wireless service," approved via NCTUE (not spelled out, but meaning  National Consumer Telecom & Utilities Exchange, which is a legitimate business), and providing their telephone number (866-*****) in Atlanta, Georgia. It is unsigned; there is at least one telltale error in it (either that, or the preparer is less than intelligent), including a bogus "application number," and comes from 

Verizon Wireless
ATTN: Credit & Order Operations
*****
Albany, NY 12212-5050
I did not and do not authorize Verizon Wireless to contact any third party concerning my credit information, nor did I do or do I authorize Verizon, its agents, assigns, associates,  or affiliates to share my personally identifiable information (PII) with third parties, except as specifically required by law.

And I would very much like an explanation of this fraudulent "application" and "approval."

Thank you, Toni. I did try to report this to Verizon and Verizon Wireless directly yesterday, got the runaround, lots of handing offs to someone else, and just plain lipservice. I used to work for Bell Atlantic; the company was never as self-oriented , or as unwilling to engage with its customers to solve problems,  as Verizon is, and that's sad.
