I agree that phone numbers should be changed at once--taking care to be sure that those other numbers remain blocked.

In the meantime I'm going to work on my daughter's social awkwardness. I believe that makes her a target for these kinds of people. If you have any suggestions on how to diminish social awkwardness let me know. My daughter can come across as different to some people as she tends to be a quiet person but gets mad easily and over reacts.

This might be a little tricky.
The main thing, in my view, is to avoid giving her the impression that these events show that she needs to be worked on. She might hear that as being blamed for the problems--"If only I weren't so socially awkward this wouldn't have happened."
My suggestion is to say that you recommend that she see a therapist to help her talk about and deal with what happened. A good therapist will figure out that your daughter can use help with social awkwardness, and help her accordingly.
