They have been calling my home phone and cell phone. Once, both my phones rang at the same time. Ring for ring when they called today. They call every day and I don't answer "Unknown".
Received three calls in one day from an Illinois area code. I answered it the third time because I do have a relative there. When I picked up it was obvious from the background noise that I was being switched to a call center. The guy that called had a very hard time speaking english. He told me he was calling because I applied for a loan. I told him no, he said me or someone I knows did, I said no, he said, that is not true because I have all your personal information here including your bank account routing number, account number, social security number, DOB, etc. I said if that's true tell me the last 4 of my social security number. He became very offended and said he could not do that or he would be fired for sharing personal info. He said he had my email address and proceeded to read it off...it was not my address. He said that since I was refusing their services I would be debited for their time but he could waive it if I verified my info with him and finished the loan application. I hung up.
That same number been call my house to said dey are a loan company talking about i can get a loan i said i do not need any money i said stop call this number dey call for all kind of number i am tired of them
I just got off the phone with one of the jerks at this number. Very rude. The background noise was so bad I couldn't hear half of what he was saying. I did hear something about a loan. I told him I wasn't interested. I mentioned the background noise repeatedly. It sounded like a bar or someplace like that. I've never heard a call center this noisey before. Before hanging up, he told me to learn English.
if these losers have any of your personal information such as your social security number, date of birth or drivers license make sure you register with identity protection notify the credit agencies as well as your banks!!
