Got the call from (510) 970-1100, which you cannot call back. Lady said she was from Social Security (SS) and gave me a 877 number to call back on and also gave me her direct line. I did my research, called the main SS number at 1-800-772-1213, three times, and to make a long story short, the number was in fact from a branch office of Social Security Western processing Center, located in Richmond CA, calling to help me process a claim. In fact the claim was processed very fast after I spoke with the lady. By the way she also encouraged me to call the SS main number and completely understood my concerns. On my third call to SS I talked with a supervisor who was very helpful and was able to verify all the information, numbers, names etc., and addressed my concerns, which me feel very good. Bottom line as of now on July 2013, I can said that (510) 970-1100 is the Social Security Admin calling
