Are you a Union member? or have you ever been? This is a call from Communications Workers of America AFLCIO. It is a callout number that members can listen to broadcast meetings regarding union matters. Call the number back and leave a message to request to be added to a DO NOT CALL list. If you are not, or never have been a member, your number may have once belonged to a union member, or it is mis-dialing. It is not a SPAM or telemarketing company trying to sell you something.
please always see the " forum " section first....!!! most issues and questions etc are already answered there !!
more than likely ( 99 % ) one of the several " 202" area code fraud scams going around !!!
PLEASE NOTE !!! THESE SCAMMERS ARE ALSO IMPERSONATING THE US GOV'T / SEVERAL GOV'T OFFICES AND PERSONS....BEWARE !!!
some are landlines...many are cell phones...some are spoofed and linked to offshore foreign countries !!!!
we've traced back most of these numbers to offshore foreign call centers in INDIA / THAILAND / AFRICA / JAMAICA ETC....
here's a few other numbers posted from the same area code offering a wide variety of scams / fake emails and scams after posting something on craigslist ( old scam ) ...... collecting for non existant " payday loans "....free money / scam giveaways / $1,000's in free gov't money......... etc etc.....stories change out all the time......and the usual nonsense!!!
** mysteriously call to claim they have several thousand of dollars to send you....just provide you bank account and credit card right away etc etc.........scam scam
several of these are the usual long ongoing scams such as : you have won a free walmart / bestbuy gift card....or you have won a free ipad etc......all long ongoing scams
202-621-0436 ( offshore foreign call center ? ) poor english and violent on the phone! claim to be giving away $1,000's in free cash....just give them all your personal info etc........
Thank you for putting the other phone number in your message DontSpamMe.... I called it and told them I wanted my unlisted private number removed from their mailing list and she said I needed to speak with someone named Beth who is in charge of that list, and I left her a nice, but strong voicemail. So we'll see what happens. The next step is to go to the do not call registry and report them there if this doesn't work.
