Called claiming to be Miss Barbara from Bank of America and they have a check in my name. Lucky me! Too bad it was such a horrible connection and I wasn't sure of the number I was supposed to call back.
I got a called from this number claiming he works for the federal court and claiming that I owed money regarding a package that was COD in 2010. I told him what company was the package and he refuse to say and then he persisted in trying to make some arrangments with me to hire him to represent me and I would not have to pay the court fee and the package which he kept saying it was $500 plus whatever court fee I was going to have to pay if I went to court. I knew this is a scam and I notice the three times he call two numbers appear and the third came back as private caller. I did call back the numbers and they came back as unavailable not on service.
Receiving calls from 213-457-0323; no messages being left. If I block our phone numbers and call the number back, a message states to check the number before dialing.
The odd thing is that since the beginning of 2012, we're now receiving LOADS of unsolicited calls each week through California, New York and Oregon despite us being on the Federal and state DO NOT CALL LISTS for our home and cell phones.
The FCC, HLS, FTC need to get more involved to stop or substantially limit these calls, especially to seniors and others who may be scammed.
Called asking for someone of a similar last name... said it must be a relative of mine and claimed to be calling about something for church. Asked if I could go to the computer to look up a number for them... I hung up then.
