Message left goes something like this: This message is for..., if you are not ... please hang up. If you are listening to this message then you are agreeing that you are ..." and so on stating they are attempting to collect a debt. Is this LEGAL?
Didn't answer the call because already get too many harassing, unsolicited calls from idiots like this.
After reading the posts here, glad i didn't answer. Thanks for all your posts here.
Another number I didn't recognize so I didn't answer. Then saw all the posts here. I will continue not to answer. Thanks for the posts! They don't leave VMs, which I think is very suspicious. If it's important, they should leave a VM.
I have been getting calls frequently over the last month. AT&T issued me a new phone number and that is when I started getting these calls from 218-293-4079. I answered the first few call and got silence, I sent a text with STOP but that didn't work.
Sometimes I get 2 calls a day from them I don't answer anymore and they don't leave a voicemail.
At first I was answering the calls.The callers claimed I had debt from multiple states from a variety of banks, credit cards & business loans.Each time I answered it was a new story.Once they said a Federal Warrant had been issued for my arrest.The calls were coming from dusk 'til dawn,7 days a week which included holidays. I stopped answering. They began calling my family.I was furious ! My mother & daughter.My 10,11 & 12 year old sons & grandson at all hours including during school.I researched phone #'s 218-293-4079 & 205-453-4063 although there were many others.I am convinced this "company" is a scam.
I too having been receiving calls from this number. First, they called my son who lives 800 miles away from me and told him it was an emergency that they reach me because my bank account had been hacked. Thankfully my son contacted me and gave me a heads up. I decided to answer to see what tall tales they would spout. Told me I had a federal warrant for my arrest and they needed my address to serve it. I told them fine send the sheriff after me (I don't owe anyone anything). They tried numerous times to call but I ignored the calls. It's been several weeks now with no more calls and surprise no warrant has been served. I don't understand how these scammers can get away with using scare tactics on hard working people. I did report this number.
