called this morning. seems my number is out there. fifth telemarketer in two days. somehow my number has been released and now i am in the unfortunate mix.
Received a call from this number several times...did not answer...returned the call...get a message stating my phone number (foreign sounding voice) and say press 1 to be removed. Never say who they are.
I am on the "Do Not Call" list and this guy keeps calling. He is rude and snotty. He has continued to call even after I asked him to stop. I called the number back and a woman hung up on me as soon as I told her that I was on the "Do Not Call" list.
Same here....if you ask the person how to quit getting calls because you're on the DNC list, they hang up. Say "this is illegal" they hang up. Ask the name of the company, they hung up. I just called the state's AG office (I think they handle DNC complaints), waiting for a call back to see how I report them.
Since I got hundreds of calls related to the "auto warranty scam", I am on the alert for these kind of calls.
I got an abusive phone rep who said he was "with VISA", accused me of being "confused", read an 800 number quickly, then when I asked him to repeat the number, hung up on me.
If this is just lead generation for VISA and Mastercard, they're doing it wrong.
