They called me today and asked all sorts of info. Unfortunately, I gave the guy some info, like my birthdate and address. I feel very stupid for doing that. When he asked for my credit card number, thankfully I said no, that I would need to check out his company before I did anything else. However, I am very nervous still.
I called my cc company (because I had given him the customer service # off of it) and told them to report my card as lost, to give me a new card, and put stricter security questions on my account.
I am hopeful this solves the problem, and I am going to call the BBB to report the whole thing tomorrow.
The guy on the phone was good at his job. Too bad his job is trying to scam people.
The person who cald me from this #, called e by my first name as if he knows me personally. I did not recognize the # nor the voice,, therefore I answered the call with a Hispanic accent.
When I attempted to return the call, I reached music and a recording all three(3) times. I also attempted , via calling information to do a reverse ID on the #, at which time I was informed that the # is unlisted.
I get this call a lot....I never answer and they never leave a message...If you answer it....they will probably sell your number to thousands of robo call organizations. Because you answer, they know you are there and you are curious about who is calling...personally these people need to do ten years jail time!
Got a call from them. Told me I could make money by giving them info on local businesses. I must have a credit card with a minimum of $1000 available on it. Then asked for the Visa # and expiration date. That is when I thanked him for his time and hung up. This is just another scam for you to give out your information for them to use. BEWARE!
