I have been getting regular calls from "Kelly" a robot voice who warns me I have too much credit card debt and am paying too much interest. Since they never stop calling once in a while I press 1 to talk to a rep (first I have to tell the first weasel I have over $5000 in credit card debt. This time I talked to Dave Wilson who hung up on me immediately when I said all I wanted was for them to stop calling. (says he was with Freedom Financial when he answers the phone. Likely just credit card scammers. Caller ID varies so you can't block but its the same outfit I am re reporting here and the other number
I got a similar recorded message as Steamed601. Twice. First time I pressed 1 and got a guy from India with broken English. He asked me if I had $5000 or more in debt and I said that I was not going to discuss that with him but wanted to speak to a credit counselor. He said that he could not transfer me if I did not answer the question. I hung up.
Second time, Robot said they've been trying to reach me. I pressed 1 and got same??? Indian guy who had bad English. He asked my name. Well, if they've been trying to call me why doesn't he know my name? Got the $5000 question and said yes. I was connected to Harold who informed me that he was with American Freedom Financial and they were wroking with a government program to reduce debt. He asked how much cc debt I had. I told him that I did not know how much credit card debt we had as my husband handles that. He gave me a number for my husband to call back with all the balances and creditors and interest we are paying: 877-513-7863 x5581.
