Why did I get an "Service Disconnect Confirmation Email" email?

[DownnedPole]

My bill is paid. I have not requested my service to be disconnected. So why did I receive the below email? I tried to call the number but after a good hour on hold had to give up.

As someone getting 5 or more such emails a day, here's what you do:

1. Check the complete email address to see where it really came from.

2. Forward the email to "abuse@verizon.net".

3. Google the number to see if it's a real Verizon help number. It's not.

If I had to call on each one of these, I spend 5 hours a day waitng on the phone. Many companies, including banks have email addresses you can report these, and usually starts with "abuse@...", and generally answer within an hour.

All such emails end with: Your Chase on line team, Your Verizon Team, Your AOL team. You get the idea.
