Just received a call from "Rachel" advising that she is from our "credit card" company and that while there is nothing wrong with our account if we would like to lower our interest rate to Press 9 to speak with an operator. Apparently, being on the "Do Not Call List" doesn't help.
Just received a call from some kind of `credit card service` about our card status or something to that effect. It has also happened last week when my wife answered and yes; we are on the do not call list. There's got to be a way to track down this service and disable them...
I think these guys are spoofing non-existent phone numbers for the CallerID when they call saying "this is a call from your credit card company." First of all, I believe this constitutes a perpetration of a FRAUD since I have long ago canceled all of my credit cards !! I previously spoke with someone on 2010-05-27 1:33:18 PM CDT (CallerID 1-826-000-9728) and told them I am on both the national and state "do not call list" and to remove me from their system. They called back today with caller ID 1-265-000-2899. The caller ID numbers they have used so far all have 000 as the prefix and are:
1-407-000-1919 on 2009-06-16 4:18:03PM CDT
1-305-000-9876 on 2009-07-18 10:28:04AM CDT
1-917-000-9283 on 2009-12-07 1:26:05PM CST
1-773-000-0000 on 2010-04-06 12:59:42PM CDT
1-826-000-9728 on 2010-05-27 1:33:18PM CDT
1-625-000-8892 on 2010-06-01 3:43:27PM CDT
1-265-000-2899 today, 2010-06-15 2:42:03PM CDT
I also received 15 calls over in the last year between 2009-07-01 and 2010-04-27 from 1-000-000-0000.
Anyone have any idea who we can contact to get these guys charged and off the grid ?
