THIS IS A SCAM TO SWITCH YOUR LONG DISTANCE SERVICE. FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE DO NOT CALL REGISTRY (if you are registered). The call was in Spanish, thanking me for paying my phone bill on time -- so I was chosen to receive a free 500 minute long distance card...including calls internationally. The person calling, then put another person on "to verify" my information. He spoke even faster than she did, but I managed to catch that he said "change your long distance carrier"...I saId NO NO NO I DON'T WANT TO CHANGE MY CARRIER, and asked him to slowly repeat what he had just said. The first girl came back on immediately. She said it was not to change my carrier, just to give me the free card, and she would need to have the other person verify my information. She then put a woman on, who went through the same jargon that the man had done. As soon as I said NO NO, again, and asked her to repeat what she had just said, the first girl immediately came on again. I said NO, I DON'T WANT YOUR CARD, I DO NOT WANT TO CHANGE MY SERVICE, then I hung up.

These are collection agency using locator services to verify if you are who you are. They are called Skip Tracers. They use fake "you won something" to verify if you are who you are to send collection letters to you.
It's highly illegal. Report them to DONOTCALL.GOV and the FTC.
