Some woman in a call center that sounded Indian. She said she was from some diabetic research place or something along those lines and then asked if anyone in the household was diabetic. When I said no, she never responded, yet the line stayed active for another 30 seconds...this was the fourth time before 2:30 they had called, so i finally answered.
Caller ID said Texas, called 8 times in one day, when I finally answered, there was a pause, then a foreign voice I could hardly understand, asked if anyone in the house was diabetic, I said no, then asked if there were any senior citizins in the household, I said no. They hung up!!! Not sure where they would have gotten my phone number!
Same here, they just called me to, saying they were calling from Luxenburg. They were lying, Luxenburg has coutrycode +352, so I hung up on them. I hope I won't get ripped off on my next phonebill.
This number called once about a week ago and then again yesterday as a "follow-up" call. They asked if I was getting my diabetic supplies from Medicare (I'm not old enough to have medicare nor am I a diabetic) so I said sure but I don't want anything from you. After that they called about 20 more times between yesterday and today (until I had the number blocked). The number came up with different names such as "providian" or "Providian financial" or in one case they spelled providian with a leading comma ",providian" like they had put in too many control characters in the spoofing system they were using [spoofing is when they control what the caller ID will say when the call arrives to pretend to be someone else]. Some names just say, "VoIP." After that number was blocked they began calling from 360-742-1886 asking the same questions. Now both numbers are blocked. The Better Business Bureau lists about 20 companies named providian. None of them have either of the two numbers that pretended to be such to me.
