keep getting calls almost every day 1 or 2 in the early morning - no one ever answers if I pick.
If anyone knows how to stop this it would be appreciated
We got a call yesterday that we missed. They left a message saying that this was Belk Reward Credit Card Services from Synchrony. We do NOT have a current Belk's credit card, but we have had one in the past. They requested a call back at the number 1-800-347-1170. When I called this number back, the automated message said that they matched my phone number with my account, and then they asked for our card or account number. When I did not enter a number, they said they could not authenticate the account, so to list the last four digits of the social security number of the owner of this account. I listed mine, and they then asked for my entire social security number, WHICH I DID NOT GIVE. This automated message said that if the account is delinquent, then this is an attempt to collect funds.Then they transferred me to an agent, a female, whom I asked why they had called, that we don't have a Belk's card. She started saying that this number may have been called in error.
I told her to take us off her calling list, that they were listed online as being a scam/fraud/fake collection agency.
She wasn't necessarily a representative of the real company. This sounds like a scam; some of these posts are from people who don't even have this credit card yet these people asked them for their information. In that case I wouldn't expect politeness.
