I just got a call from 305 434 7222 asking me if I took credit cards. Jamacian sounding woman. WATCH OUT...these people are slammers. They try and get you to say YES so they can record you and switch your phone service or ISP to another carrier without your knowledge. All they need is to get you to say YES. I had it happen to me. US BILLING slammed phone charges on my bill and when I called to complain they played back a recording asking DIFFERENT questions but it was my voice saying YES. When they first called they said.. We are calling from Verizon...are you happy with your phone service? I said YES. BUT... they played it back when I called to complain telling me..."you did agree to the charges.... The recording said "Are you agreeing to switching your phone service to US Billing?" ....I was shocked when they CROPPED in MY voice to say "YES" They get your phone number from those Enter to Win a Vacation podiums set up at restaurants and stores.
Just received a call from 305-434-7222, which showed up as originating from "Florida, USA".
Caller speaking with heavy accent, sounded Jamaican, asked if this was "BadWeatherBikers.com". I said yes, what can I do for you? The caller asked "do you accept American Express?" I replied, "why do you want to know"? Caller stated they might want to purchase one of our products. I asked "what are you interested in purchasing." Answer was that she was calling for her husband and he might want to purchase one of our products. I told caller she was a liar, a scammer and a thief, and that I was going to report her number to the authorities. She hung up.
BadWeatherBikers.com, the "business" that she sought to contact, offers no products for sale other than advertising/sponsorship.
I work for a local ISP and a guy called in and asked if we take American Express. I told him we do and he said "Alright, I'll be there in a few minutes." I tried to ask him if he was in our are since the caller ID shows an out of area number but he hung up. We also don't accept walk in traffic, so I tried to call him back and I heard some music, then a recorded voice said goodbye.
heavy jamaican accent just called asking "May I speak with Tastefully Simple" which is a company I use to sell for 8 years ago. The only time I use this info is at Sam's Club when I renew my membership it says my business name is Tastefully Simple. I've never corrected it due to just laziness.......
I knew where the caller was headed so I hung up. I'm expecting a call back...... geez ........hate these!
Keep getting non stop calls from these fools on my cell phone(listed on the do not call list just to be extra cautious). I picked up once or twice to silence since then I have not answered. I have gotten 3 calls yesterday alone. They just don't stop. I do not know who they are but it is quite annoying. I would avoid answering calls from these people. I do not know what the scam is, but it seems pretty clear from the internet that there is some scam related to credit cards
