i got a call from a "michelle" who claims to be from a company called credit approved in boston. she didnt have an a company email or a website for the so called "Credit Approve" business she was calling from, and the only email she gave me was (202) 621-0041. she requested a quote VIA EMAIL ONLY urgently for 20 sets of business cards... very plain ones... sounded like a scam to me, anyone know about these people?
I got the same call, I think it is a scam. The company's website is very scammie in its presentation... In that there is no contact info and I looked for any business information on the web, like Corsera, and white pages.com. they do not exist in Boston or anywhere else that I can see. I am in Boston. The phone number is not a boston phone number with an area 202. Going to add the number to my block list.
usual AND never ending fake / fraud / bogus / scam / fraud calls ringing in with a " 202" area code !!!
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 !!!
- also impersonating US MARSHALLS / DEA AND DRUG ENFORCEMENT etc....
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 / fake vehicle extended warranties etc............. 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........
