I just received a call August 8, 2013 at 3:33PM. From a guy who can barely speak English telling me he is from the government and I have been awarded an $8,000 grant that can only be used in good faith. That if I don't feel comfortable giving him my bank account information I can give him my credit card information so they can deposit the money into my account. I laughed at him and told him that wouldn't be happening and that I do not want his so called "money". He then hung up on me.
call a number that is no longer in service, use this as your record message. If they call, say I am really sorry you have the wrong number. These people are on limited time to each person. Obviously they have information about you, your name, where you work. Make it believable this person has changed his/her number. I guarantee they will go on to some one else.
Keep calling after I ask not to. Very annoying when you have to rest for work and the phone keeps ringing every minute from a Indian speaking man asking me why he shouldn't call back. How can you get these people to stop!!!!!!!! and then they call from another number 202-559-7648. I'm sick of this!!!
