I just got my first call from this # and didn't answer. I have no patience for these scams. I was thinking if you tell them you work at the FCC and your reporting them if your not put on a DNC list it might help. I'm always tempted to mess with them and say there mom just showed up at my house and then get nasty about what your doing to her and maybe there sister wants in or there wife! Have fun with it! I've got some telescamers all worked up and pissed off then i say i'm reporting them to the FBI and FCC! Its worked for me in the past and its fun to make them so mad! But you should report them don't just threaten, reporting them is what will make this stop. pissing them off is just fun!
Same number appeared in my caller id (cell phone). It stated that they were calling from Suntrust (bank) and that they deteccted third party use of my debit card and had blocked it. "Press 1 to have it unblocked". When you press 1, it asks for your debit card number... (would assume pin is next). I don't bank with Suntrust... obviously, this is a phone "phishing" scan.
Have had several calls to my cell from this number, 234-567-890. I have never answered. A voice mail was left a couple of times and sounded like muffled static. Gotta be some sort of scam. Can't people find something better to do with their time, oh wait! They want easy money or info from you! SOB's!
i just answered it and they are still on the phone it is an automated thing and it says my debit card has been deactivated and to reactivate it press 1 so i press 1 and it says u will need 3 pieces of information and im thinking what do i need and they say have ur card number ready so im waiting like what else do i need and then its telling me enter my card number.. yea [***] right u know how if u actually call about ur card and u dont enter the number in it will ask like twice and disconnect... not this thing i just put it on speaker and sat it down it asked about 15-18 times so im pretty sure it is a scam now everyone is reading this is like ohh [***] that wasnt my bank... damn it
Well,
he call I got came to me cell at 1030 on a Saturday night. Normally I'd be up but I was wiped and kitty & I were just crashing when they called. I ran a double ended tracer on it and one returns a blasted program in Australia while the other is a "Similar" company in Trenton N.J. I turned over the data to the DOJ and I'm just hoping that they can do something. It makes me wonder how many folks have lost minutes that they really needed for other stuffs, some of which might actually be important?
