MyBonus140.com received from (800) 922-0204 from Verizon is this legit?

I was called and a message was left on my voicemail stating to go to MyBonus140.Com and login to receive $140. I then get redirected to: http://140mybonus.zapto.org/

This seems sketchy as the URL is not the actual verizon site. Clicking enough links finally gets me to the verizon site, but I'm not about to enter my login details if this is not legit from Verizon Wireless.

The caller ID app I use returned the number as Verizon Wireless Customer Service out of Jamestown, NY (800) 922-0204

I entered in some bogus login info to the left box and received the following webpage

http://140mybonus.zapto.org/Verizon/reward.html

If you click the  Sign In from the top right, Verizon Wireless never asks for the password alongside the UserID like what is see in the left of the original page.

I reported this to the Domain provider for zapto.org (no-ip.com via abuse@noip.com) Hopefully this will get corrected before someone actually allows someone into their account.

That's what I'm trying to figure out, too. It didn't even ask my for my log-in info, just redirected me to Verizon's website.

I think the best you can do is report it, I reported them to verizonwireless.com, avixie.com (domain host/main server host), no-ip.net (redirect domain host), and tricom.net (the ISP of the machine hosting it).
