I'm in the middle of a work meeting, I get a call from 213-799-0709 out of Los Angeles, California. I don't know anyone in LA, CA, I let it go to voicemail. After the meeting, I check for a voicemail and there is one. A female computer voice left a snippet of message , "(voicemail begins)...press 1 now and you will be transfered to our 24 hour security...(voicemail ends)". I call the number back, no ring and no connection happens. I try a couple more times with a 1+, same thing. I Google the number and find 800notes.com, my suspicions are confirmed. Phone Scammers trolling for PCI and PII info.
Same as Drea - let it go to voicemail and got a snippet saying something about a "24 hour security department". Tried to call back, no ring and a disconnect. Scam.
same story. Stated local credit union had deactivated my account. I don't have a credit union account. called back - doesn't even ring. Reported call to do not call registry and to verizon, but doubt anything will happen.
When I checked my cell phone after work today, I found the number 213-799-0709 as a missed call, and that they had called at 5:20 PM Eastern time. I had no idea who this number belonged to. I tried to call back to find out if it was anyone I know, but the call would not go through despite several attempts. I put the number in Google to find out more, and that's how I found the number is used for scams.
I got several calls from 213-799-0709. There's never a message. I know people in Los Angeles, but this number doesn't belong to any of them. It's a scam.
