I just got a call to my cell phone from this number, a man asked to speak with Su Ming or something. I said wrong number and hung up.
I am using SamSung Galaxy 4, I saved this number in my Contact first and while still in Contact, press the left bottom button and "Add to Reject List".
Some guy on OK Cupid gave me this number when he messaged me on Kik. On OKC he's Jovanny Pimental and same for Kik. He only speaks to me in Spanish because he says his English to horrible. He also claims to live in NYC, work as a lawyer (but can't speak English well enough to pass a bar exam, and supposedly has a 12 year old son. I'm a little naive to scammers so this guy asked for my number and... stupid me... I gave it to him. He claimed to call me several times but I never got a call. Then today... he gave me this suspicious number and that's when I started doing research. I have learned my lesson as he is sending me messages on Kik as I write this. I will block and delete him and the phony pictures he sent me. Wish I could share his face with you all but google that name. He's the non-smiling headshot in the suit.
I believe it is connected to the FREE-LOTTO which is a scam without physical internet address.
Just because the telephone number is from Florida means nothing. I am a Canadian and had a Magic-Jack phone number from New York for 3 years. Just because I did not want to pay the extra $10-s for Canadian number. Anybody from Nigeria can have the same, matter fact Nigerians have phone numbers from London GB make you believe it is connected to investment banks in LONDON. No guarantee if you call that number. First go to yellow pages or other trustworthy sites to find out the real telephone numbers and than call that number. It happened to me and I was nearly taken in but the last minute a little voice in my head check first. When I talked to the real-Bank the answer I got; " Those damned Nigerians again.
Look people I am 66 years old and I have seen many scams from all over the world even from USA. I got scammed from Arizona ones for the tune of $1200.00, since than I am more careful.
