These people are thieves. They just have some information of you from some websites that you previously made purchases, but they want to get the rest of it to get access to your bank account.
DO NOT give out any info of yourself or any family member.
So I keep getting these calls too....they apparently call from different numbers because when I googled the first number, the same kind of responses came up. I'm not sure how you can stop these people, however, on the last one a lady said that she answered the phone and said "blah blah county sherrif's department"---they apologized and never called back again. May be a good idea for everyone who can't get them to stop. BUT for everyone's sake ----DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION. I'm going to look into it, but there's some website from the government that you can submit these phone numbers to...you may have to google it. These a-holes need to get a life. I don't know how they are obtaining these numbers. Has anyone ordered from Amazon lately?
I placed two orders with Amazon.com within the last few days. However, I've never given them my cell phone number.
I have Verizon as my cell phone provider. They have access to this info. I'm paperless, so no one can access the info because of opened mail or me throwing something out by accident. I keep or shred any and all credit card statements. Other than Verison, the vendors that I can think would have access to both my cell phone number and credit card number, are Staples, and Sarpino;s Pizza. I think there's one or two more....
Well I just ordered from Amazon three times in the last 2 months...these are the only online purchases that I have made which is making me concerned because I don't order random things via internet. I chose Amazon to avoid these issues. Could it be????
Well, I was just talking with someone on their cell phone and they took another call. It was 1-231-337-2142 and they said they were "Vista Marketing". The same stuff about placing an order recently with a credit card and what-not. Well, the person I was talking to said that this is a cell phone number and they don't take these kinds of calls. Anyway, when calling back the number they got the same info you guys have mentioned - confirming order, canceling calls from this number to confirm orders, etc. They called their bank and at this point there are no unusual charges - person at bank said it sounded like a Phishing scam and to not give any info out.
I got 10 calls in last one hour. I never answered but they never left any message. but thanks for the feed back now i will never answer this number after i read the feed back from all these above people. Thanks a lot
