they have called me the past 3 days under unknown number and of course I don't answer. It went to v/m once but it was just silence for a couple min's before I deleted it. I just got a call from this number, it rang once and hung up than almost immediately the unknown number rang again, of course I didn't answer and it went to v/m. I could hear people talking but couldn't make it out but it was English but sounded like a call center. I think I heard a lady saying to someone she was talking fast and loud but I think I made out police. I'm sure they're threatening people with some scam. I never ever answer numbers I don't know and if they don't leave a message then I did;t want the call,
Have gotten calls from unknown number for the past three days. Answered this morning at 9:00 and asked who they were they said they were part of the government grants department I said remove me from your call list and the guy went on to tell me "I will call you [***]." When I repeated myself he again verbally attacked me. Want to look into legal council about this. Especially if they call again.
Legal assistance is worthless. The parties calling you are hard core Indian and Pakistani scammer/extortionists. They are beyond the reach of US law. Invest in a call blocker and DO NOT pick up on call numbers you do not recognize. You might want to block 202 area code; it is often used by these kinds of scammers.
The woman tried to tell me that I was randomly selected to to receive a 9k grant from the US Government. She tried to get me to answer a lot of questions that I told her I was not comfortable answering. This went on for about 5 minutes. I told her her if manager would like to speak with me to get this information then I would speak with them. She replied with F@ck You B!tch and hung up. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this was a scam.
Somehow these people got my cell phone number. They call me 3-4 times a day - well now it is blocked. They don't leave messages and if you call them back it is not a valid phone number. They drove me nuts, but cant any more. I do wonder who they are though and how they got my cell number.
