If you are chatting on line or on any social networks - this is how they find their victims.
Daily they call and ask for "Michael". Daily I tell them, "It's still the wrong number and I've told you countless times to stop calling. Typically then they will just hang up. I'm really sick of this. Another issue is they tend to call early in the morning since I'm on Pacific time and they are from somewhere East. 201-340-1002, 201 340 1007, and more.
One of our cell phones started getting calls today from this number. Interesting that one person above mentioned about the fraud.
This number is listed as Hackensack NJ. My credit card got hit with fraudulent charges from a couple of companies from this area. Not sure if its coincidence or not. I would stay clear.
These people whom ever they are keeps calling all day..I left a message telling them not to call my number anymore..I 've tried to block out their numbers with my phone companyy but I can only block out ten of them..these people have more than ten numbers and just keep calliing.What can we do about this?
Same issue here. They call from multiple numbers with the same area code and exchange. I got the Call Control app for my Android and used the wildcard function to block (201)340 numbers.
