Called...got spammed...called them and asked them to remove me from any future contacts as I have my number on the "do not call" list. We'll see. Now, if we can only get rid of this number for some garbage about the Police Officer's fund...hmmmmm.
This number is from the sleazy collection agency, Valentine and Kebartas. They use a clever strategy and tactics where they will attempt to contact you using SEVERAL numbers including:
Here's a good strategy to counter these slime bags:
1. Using Skype or another service where you name will not show up on caller ID, call the number in question to verify Valentine & Kebartas (or any other bill collector)
2. Download a call blocking app for your phone. I use an Android phone and the app, Advanced Call Blocker, works really well.
3. Add the slime bag number to your blocker.
Bada bing.
Someone needs to write an app whereby telemarketers, debt collectors, etc. get bombarded by a service and it crashes their system.
I just called and got a message about Furthering My Education... I remember yesterday filling a survey out that had that question and I hit yes.. I didn't finish the full survey once I figured out a scam.
