Called when I was outside and did not leave message. We are on "do not call". Thought might be an old friend so went to this site for the first time to check a phone number. Thank you site for your good work.
PS we usually will not answer a call from who we do not know. If they know us they can leave a message and we will call back.
This is one of the people involved in a nationwide credit card scam - they use several pre-recorded messages offering lower interest rates, etc., etc...FTC and other agencies have been notified thousands of times in the last 3 years, with n action - my technique works great with these people...I bought a marine safety air horn for 12 bucks at the hardware. I push whatever number to talk to a live person, then they get the airhorn instantly when they answer. They have left me alone for months until today. Todays was a silent hang-up - he's checking to see if it's a working number, then passing it along to the others in this scam.
Anyone working for this outfit knows it's a scam, so I figure a broken eardrum is a good deterrent. So far I've used the airhorn 5 times.
Got a call from this number today, I didn't answer, and they left no message. Pretty sure they called before. I too do,t answer ' unknowns' or 'out of areas'.
