I received 2 calls today. The first time he asked for my daughter who's away at med school--something about college inquiry requested on line, which is nonsense. My daughter wouldn't inquire about colleges and she wouldn't leave my cell phone number. The second time he hung up on me. I hate to think I'm getting charged for these calls. I'm not answering this number any more.
HERE IS WHAT IT IS...I AM SO CAREFUL ABOUT SHARING MY NUMBER AND AM ON THE DO NOT CALL LIST BUTTTTT, I DID GIVE MY NUMBER TO THIS WEBSITE YESTERDAY AND RECEIVED THIS CALL TWICE TODAY WHERE THE BOY HUNG UP....http://scholarship.findtuition.com/tp2/cnc/x/scholarship/results.do'
THE WORST PART IS THAT CAREERBUILDER TOLD ME TO CHECK OUT THIS SITE AS I AM RESEARCHING GRAD SCHOOL LOANS...AND FIGURED IT WAS SAFE BUT CLEARLY NOT...PAETIC COMM, SOMEONE MENTIONED OWNS THE NUMBER AND VERY WELL MAY...I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF PHONE JACKING, SO U NEED NOT WORRY ABOUT THAT...IM SURE THAT DOESN'T EXIST??? WHAT CAN THEY DO REALLY...CALL THE POLICE IF IT PERSISTS, I HAVE DONE THAT WITH A STALKER BEFORE WHO WAS SENIAL AND THOUGHT I WAS A BANK! I SHOULD NEVER HAVE GIVEN MY NUMBER TO THE TUITION PEOPLE, HALF OF THESE WEBSITES ARE SCAMS!!!!
My wife showed me I had two messages on my cellphone. I checked the number and it was not familiar to me. So, I checked where the area code is and I know no one from that area. I checked the phone number online like a number of you have done and found this is happening the same way. I received two calls from this number with no answer except the mail box was full. Also, if this is a place scamming people for scholarships, I would never take advantage of this. You never know where this person is. They are stalking people by phone and should be reported. I am going to report this number to the police. Everyone else should do the same.
i got the call and they said something about a university. i hung up immediatly. somehow they knew my name. it was really and i hope they dont call again.
