I got a call today from 213-285-0943, a guy with heavy Indian (Pakistani) accent asked for my name and then hung up on me...I just wanted to let people know and be aware as it sounds like a some sort of scam...
I work for an website development company and a stephen hawking/computer sounding voice called me requesting to speak to someone that does not work at our company. When I asked them repeatedly to put us on their do not call list he/she said, "I'm [***] talking to you [***] [***]."
Caller stated he was from Bank of America abot a loan I had applied for told him he was trying to commit fraud cause I didnt apply for a loan from that bank. He got angry when I told him to remove my number.
This number (California) called me and a man with a thick accent asked if I was (he used my name) and I said yes, and then he immediately hung up. It appears he wanted to confirm my identity and use the "Yes" for something sinister.
I just got a phone call from 213-285-0943. Man had a very strong accent. He said his name was Max from FedEx and he asked for one of my bosses by name. I asked him what the call was about and he said, "I cannot tell you." Well, being the "gate-keeper", I laughed. He again said he was from FedEx, FedEx and he has a package for XXX. I said, "Really?" (sarcasm dripping). He said, "Yes, really." I said, "Well, when will it be delivered?" He said, "No" I said, "No?" He said, "No!" I paused and then the lightbulb came on. I said, "NOW???" He said, "Nnnooowwwww" (he laughed and hung up).
