Had 2 missed calls from this number this weekend--Nov 1 and 2 2008.
I think in the telemarketing world, they use automatic dialers, and sometimes if you pick up real quick, there is a pause. I think it is because the telemarketer is expecting a cue, and doesn't hear it if you answer your phone too quickly. Also, if you don't answer, the machine starts to call the next number. That is why they don't leave messages--wastes too much time.
I've gotten this call on more than one occasion. I never answer them. I did call them to find out who they were; got a machine. I'll just figure out a way to block them.
called three times so far. have noticed they call at times when most people are home, i.e., after 6 pm and weekends. i did not answer the first two but someone did tonight but said nothing. there was no one on the other end. There definetly up to something. could be to see how many people answer? to see when to reach you? or possibly to use voice analysis to measure a persons susceptibility to phone scams--a sucessful phone scammer needs only to take control of the conversation with the target, rather it be kind, subtle, aggressive or scary. remeber fear is a powerful emotion, so question everything a stranger says no matter where they claim their from! dont let anyone control you over the phone! As we say here in New York HAVE SOME BALLS!
Caller ID: synovate
Caller: trouble
this has something to do with fraudulent charges on your wamu credit account. wamu claims not to know about who is calling and why. if you haven't already, check your mastercard for fraud. i got this info from other message boards and i am pissed. if wamu truly has nothing to do with it then their credit protection methods are still lacking.
