a woman called me yesterday from this number claiming to be from cox communications, and told me i needed to answer some questions so they could run some diagnostic checks on my services. she said the diagnostic check would fix the problems with my service. i had called cox the day before to deal with something totally unrelated. obviously, they knew i had called cox to ask about something, somehow got my name (which she knew, scary) and cell number and tried to scam me.
i didn't trust her, so when i wouldn't answer the questions she asked if she should call back. so she just did today and my fiance answered, told her we knew it was a scam, she said quietly "oh, s***" and hung up on him.
Called at 10:17 PM Sat. nt. Shows up as Sutherland. Called after 9:00 Friday nt. twice. Did't answer them. The phone rang for a few minutes. Woke me up I go to work early.
This must be a call from a call center that handles multiple companies. They called and I didn't take the 1st call. They then called back almost immediately and I did take the call.
I had called A T & T Uverse yesterday because my system was not working properly. They walked me thru a solution. Today, the same person called me back, from this number, to inquire whether the problem had reoccured or whether it was still working properly. The caller ID said Sutherland.
At least in my case, it wasn't a slicitation but rather a follow up and legit.
I just received a call from this number and the caller did leave a message.
The call was from AT&T tech support for U-Verse. I had a system outage in my area and contacted them this morning. The message was to let me know service had been restored.
