Definitely a bad player. This number called my cell. When called back I received a recording asking for date of birth, social security number and full name under the guise of the "opt out" program. I hadn't called the "do not call" number for over a year. Very slick recorded voice but I believe it's a more sophisticated version of Phishing.
Just received a call from this number and let it go to v/m. The caller said her name was Ashley and she was calling me back after talking to me last week. She said she could get my interest rate down to 9% on my gas card. (funny, I don't have a gas card), she also said that they could get my interest rate down to single digits on all of my credit cards. I did not talk to anyone about this EVER. Stop calling me!
The party at 313-444-2949 was unable to leave a message as I do not have VM or answering machine in operation. They called at 8:23 AM, MST, Feb. 12, 2013. Later when I looked at the caller ID, I assumed it was a wrong number, but then checked it out anyway. Glad I did! Caller ID showed "DERRICK COMPANI", so it had the appearance of being legit.

The bottom line is that you can't do absolutely nothing about being called by telemarketers, debt collectors, etc. UNLESS you take it to court and file a lawsuit. If you don't you are really wasting your time and even posting your complaints here. What's the point? You complain on a board like this and think they will stop calling you?
I had to go after Sallie Mae for harassing me up to 8x per day every single day. I had to file 2 complaints with the FCC, a complaint with the FTC and BBB. In addition I retained a lawyer to go after them
because the TCPA (Consumer Telephone Protection Act) is what you can used against solicitation if they call you on a cell phone or any type of communication that cost you money and you can get up to $1500 per violation.
