I just received a call from 216.362.5000. It is NOT Firestone Credit. Firestone uses an alternative financial source for their financing. I just spoke with them today.
I live in MST zone and received a call from this number. It came up on the caller ID as Firestone Tire. We do have credit with them, but everything is up to date and so I did not answer. They did leave a message. It sounded like a kid on the phone. They said, "I coming for you, yeah yeah yeah, I am going to kill you." I don't know who this is nor do I appreciate this type of behavior. Just thought I would post and let you all know what happend in my situation. I might just call the police and see what can be done.
They just called me at 7:30 PM. After seeing their number on my call log every other day, I answered it. It told me "Please return our phone call at 1-800--" and some other numbers but before I could get a pen, the auto-dialer had hung up on me. I called the 216 number back and got a message from Firestone Credit saying their office was closed and to call back during their normal business hours.
WTF??? Having a machine dial out when your business isn't even open? How stupid!
They called again today (which makes 8 times now since 9-16, according to my cell phone call log)... I picked it up this time and there was a live person on the other end. They asked for some guy I've never heard of and when I told them that there was no one here by that name and to quit calling me, they tried to tell me that someone took a message for him at this number recently.
I have had the same phone number for over 3 years now and it's a cellphone. No one else but me uses it. The last 2 times they called is the only time I've answered it -- the previous times they hung up on my voicemail. They've never once left a message on it.
I just got a voicemail today from this number from a woman looking for a man and saying that it was important for me to call back. I agree that it is likely a scam of some kind. Googled the number to see if I could figure out who it was and found this site.
