Caller was a woman with an African accent - said she was from "Unified Services" and that I had won a $1000 internet shopping spree and an absolutely free vacation package. I just had to pay $1.95 for shipping. When I asked what "Unified Services" actually was, I didn't really get a clear answer other than the fact that it had something to do with travel agencies and shopping malls. She put me through to her supervisor, who was a man with an Indian accent. They were adament about the fact that this was a legitimite call and that they were not a telemarketing company. Who knows.
Called my husbands cell phone 12 times within the last 2 weeks saying that he was approved for a $5000.00 line of credit and he only had to pay $3.95 but had to give his credit card information. They do not answer when he called back.
They called me and told me that they are calling from Social Security, and I had been granted additional scholarship for next semester if I would give them my bank account number and some additional information. I hung up 3 times, and each time I got the same call from a different voice, all from this number. How can we stop them for posing as federal agencies!?
