I just got a call from 305-587-2091. They said that they were calling to lower my interest rate and that they were calling from cardmember services. I asked the guy if he was calling from my visa card services, how come he didnt know what my current interest rate was and he hung up. I called back and got the message that this number is an unattended mailbox and it could not recive any incoming calls>>>SCAMS..
The old "Rachel from card services". (I'm on the federal do not call list). The 5th call this week, all from different (spoofed) numbers. Male voice, India, seemed new as he did try to get a phone number for me to call back, Gave me the old "you have to qualify to get number", attempted to get credit card info - seemed fixated on getting card that you owed more than $3K in a script designed to get you to tell them your credit card number. I could hear many conversations in background
Dolores, they change their phone number often - maybe every week or so. And they get numbers from all over the country. A lot of these people are calling from overseas - yes, they can do that.! They also will try to sell "Security Systems" - it's all illegal. Help out by filing a complaint with the FTC, FCC and State's Attorney General - they will only litigate if enough people complain.
They don't care about being "whistled at" - they are performing a numbers game - the more people they access, the higher the chances of finding a victim. Don't be a victim. Report to the FTC, FCC & Attorney General's office - they are the only ones with "teeth" that can file in Federal Court. DO IT - I KNOW IT'S A PAIN, BUT IT WILL NOT STOP UNLESS YOU GET INVOLVED.
