I answered a call since I receive calls at work and I cannot ignore. I have "won a $100 gift card." They just "need a credit card to pay the $14.95 shipping." I explained I will not give my credit card to someone who called me. I am not stupid. That is how con artists get information and charge tons of stuff to the victim's card. I will just answer and place the phone down so I don't have to listen to the lies.
I just started recieveing these calls today. They started at 9:22 am and have called every 10 minutes since then. No one ever answers and I have asked to be placed on the Do Not Call list every time. Since it's automated it says it will take 24 hours to be placed. I then went to my landlines website (windstream) and an figured out how to used the Selective Call Rejection feature and added this number.
I've gotten this call twice in the past hour...They say they have a $100 gift certificate for available use at many of your favorite stores...how would you like to pay the $4.95 shipping charge??
