a woman called me and told me i was a finalist in a sweepstakes. and that i won this free diamond watch and so mags. she told me my address and asked my age. asked if i was married and what did i did for a living? what my husband did for a living? and how much money we made a month? then told me that someone would call me back with a tracking number to get my mags for $3.99. another woman called back and said she need my credit card number or a checking account to withdrawn the $3.99. i told her that i didn't have a credit card or checking. she hung up on me. these people are calling from the los angeles area. their numbers are: 310-831-1141/310-241-0575. don't me fooled.
I have very similar experiences with these people. In the last month or so I have been called about 50 times by a few different numbers that were very similar. Today i decided to answer and tell them to stop calling but I couldnt get a word in. I also live in Austin. She knew my name, address and obviously my cell phone number. She said I won free magazines and a diamond watch. I let the convo play out. Answered some questions and waited for her to ask for my credit card number. she didnt ask and we hung up. about 5-10 min later the number called back and I was busy. They called about 20 times throughout the day until I finally answered. She said she was the first ladies supervisor but she sounded exactly the same. She wanted my credit card number to pay for one of the magazines. I told her I wasnt comfortable giving out that info so she spouted off about how her company "United Readers" was accredited by the BBB and had a ranking of "A". Needless to say, they don't. The BBB has no ranking or accreditation for them. I told her I still didnt want to and that I thought the mags were free. She started arguing with me so I told her the convo was over and never to call me again.
Same thing as everyone else, a woman calls up says that she's from Publishers Clearing House ask me for my address to clarify and goes through how much I make a year what my address is and if I'm married. When I tell her that I do not need any on magazines cause I don't have time I get hung up on.
