Live in Northern Virginia & received call on my VERY private cell this morning at 9:02 AM.
No message left, but per other websites reporting on this 302-995-8381 number, this is a phishing scam that just started this morning, November 7, 2013, where the scammers "offer to lower interest rates on your credit cards." Many people receiving this call have NO credit cards and NO outstanding debt.
Just hang up, and report the phishing scam to the FTC (info below) so they can stop it. (NOTE: The Do Not Call registry can do nothing against scammers like this - the scammers just call random numbers and will not honor DNC lists.)

I got a call on my cell phone at 1:46 pm. When I spoke to the rep I asked to be removed from there list. They quickly hung up. Called back and got a busy signal.
It was a recording asking if I wanted to lower my Credit Card Interest rate to 6% and it was my last chance! Seemed to me like a phishing scam? My credit card companys want to suck the life out of and now they want to give us a break ya right!
