About the 857-260 exchange
857-260 is an exchange (the first six digits of a phone number) in area code 857, which covers Massachusetts. NANPA, which runs the North American Numbering Plan, assigned it to Verizon Wireless for the Boston, MA rate center in 2012. Numbers from this carrier are usually wireless (cell 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 857-260 numbers is usually Eastern time. Scammers can also fake (spoof) any number, so a call that shows a 857-260 number may not come from Verizon Wireless at all.
