called repeatedly today for someone else, I kept telling them that they had the wrong numbr but they ontinued to call asking for the same person until the last call I got really ignorant on the phone and asked them to stop calling my phone, they had the wrong number and the rep still continued to talk until I hung up on him. NO MORE CALLS HAVE COME THRU.
Ok, here is the scam. The person I spoke to was Jessica (but who knows) says she is calling on behalf of Freedom Financial Guide and wants to give me a grant from the government that I dont have to pay back. Doesn't matter what you want you need it for. I told here I need money to repair my roof, she said ok you qualify. She has a foreign accent and is hard to speak and understand. In order to get this unlimited amount she would have to send me a kit via mail. They pay shipping cost but want reimbursed for this shipping. The amount is $2.95 and the only way to pay is with a credit card or debit card. I told her I filed bankruptcy and have neither. She said that doesn't matter and ask if a friend could help me. I told her my relative works for the government and that is who would help me out. She wanted to put us on a 3 way call and get the credit card information. I told here that who she works for is government secrecy and she cant even tell me what she does so a phone call to her would not be possible. She said she would call back.
They called about 10 times in 30 minutes. When I finally picked it up the guy from another country said someone's name and before he had a chance to finish I just said I want you to right now take this number and NEVER call it again. Consider it a blocked number. And hung up.
I then placed a complaint with the FCC.
