got robocall from 302-764-3176 caller ID said "UNKNOWN NAME" on Monday 03-10-14 @ 229 PM.
The above call came right after robocall from 941-803-4666 @ 226 PM that got disconnected.
Good old Rachel from Card Member Services message and yes I did press "1" to talk to these morons.
Female came on the line and I did not give her much of a chance - I played at full blast my "Raunchy Cussing/Swearing YouTube Rant" on my computer. She bailed so quickly the "Rant" did not get much past the 15 second mark before the disconnect beeping was heard.
These scammers call us at least 6 times a week. Usually they hang up after 1 or 2 rings. The numbers are spoofed and changed constantly. Recently, they have taken to using some numbers which appear to be nearby residential numbers. Think that these scammers have called us at least 1000 times over the last few years. We have the ability to block up to 100 numbers, don't answer unknown numbers, but NOTHING stops these criminals from calling. These folks are completely evil... and run a number of different scams. They place millions of calls a day, and no one is stopping them.
(302) 764‑3176 Robo call recorded 06 March 2014 ("This is Rachel...reduce your rate...consider this your final notice..." Credit Card SCAM)
Caller ID: "Wilmington DE"
"Rachel" didn't wait very long since "Heather's" last call from a different number, even after assuring me, "...consider this your final notice..."
Yeah, I wish.
I also chuckle because I noticed they corrected their poor grammar used on previous calls "...There's no problems currently with your accounts..." (their script writer finally fixed the use of a singular verb with the plural subject).
Their total disregard of the Do Not Call list certainly tells us a lot about their business ethic, doesn't it?
Here is a transcript of their latest offering:
[female voice] "Hello, this is Rachel at Cardholder Services calling in reference to your current credit card account. There are no problems currently with your account, it is urgent, however, that you contact us concerning your eligibility for lowering your interest rate to as little as 6.9%. Your eligibility expires shortly so please consider this your final notice. Please press the number 1 on your phone now to speak with a live operator and lower your interest rate. Or press the number 3 to discontinue further notices. Thank you. Have a great day."
Thanks to Google Voice ( www.google.com/voice ) you can hear this recording on my Spam Calls web page:
As the message from the card service scammers says "there are no problems currently with your account" --but for those fooled by their calls, they will soon notice BIG PROBLEMS with their account! BEWARE of these slimy creatures!
Had a voice mail from this company claiming to be able to reduce my mortgage rate to 6.25%. Not much of a deal, since mine is already lower than that. Not only that, but they don't give the name of their organization, and it's the whole "Dial 1 to connect to a representative. Dial 2 if you want to be removed from our list." nonsense.
Since it also shows up as "unknown name", I elected to ignore them.
I got a call from Wilmington at 7:00am this morning. It was a robo-call offering to consolidate and lower our credit card interest rates. I called the number and got a "no longer in service."
