About the 205-840 exchange

205-840 is an exchange (the first six digits of a phone number) in area code 205, which covers Alabama. NANPA, which runs the North American Numbering Plan, assigned it to Lumen (Level 3) for the Alabaster, AL rate center in 2022. Numbers from this carrier are usually VoIP / internet phone lines.

People keep their number when they move or switch carrier, so this is where the number was first assigned, not where the caller is today. Local time for 205-840 numbers is usually Central time. Scammers can also fake (spoof) any number, so a call that shows a 205-840 number may not come from Lumen (Level 3) at all.
