I got a call saying that I'd recently made a Visa purchase, that everything was fine with my order, and that I'd won a $125 gas card...I promptly told them to lose my number and hung up. There's been too many scams like this for anyone to fall for this type of thing anymore.
27 calls in three weeks...unwanted...did not answer...Googled the number and came upon pages upon pages of people who received unwanted calls as well as solicitations from a company called Vista. Offered free gas card if they could have the address of the recipient.
I missed 2 calls from this number and called back and like everyone else got an automated message about my order. I too was very suspicious so I came here and saw about the $120 in gas cards. So I made sure my phone ringer was turned up all of the way and was ready for them. Sure enough they called a 3rd time within about an hour and I was ready for them. First he said it was from a mastercard purchase I made. I told him I didn't have a mastercard. Then he said well maybe it was from my debit card and he rattled off my last 4 digits of my card number which kind of freaked me out. Then he asked if I was over 18 and I told him no. That didn't seem to deter him any. So then when he said he was sending my $120 in gas cards I told him I don't have a car. He said well give them to a family member and I said we are amish we ride in buggies. So he persisted I give these gas cards to a family member and I said my whole family is amish we all ride in horse drawn buggies. This also didn't stop him and he said, "well what about a lawn mower." At this point I started laughing and I said we don't use gas mowers because we are amish and are against gas. Heck I don't even know how the amish mow their yards but he finally got the hint and chuckled abit and I was able to get him off the phone.
Called to verify my city and state stating that I had used one of their 3rd party vendors, with my credit card ending with XXXX. This was a credit card that had just been canceled for unauthorized transactions. They wanted ME to give THEM my whole credit card number to be mailed $120 in gas rebates.
