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.
Got a call, answered, it was a call service asking about Yaz. Hung up. Unfortunately, I called back to remove myself. They asked for my social security number (I typed in 123-45-6789) then asked for my birthday, then asked for my home number. I hung up. Then I found all these complains. Literally, just called about an hour ago.
Will be following through on the complains given my a previous poster.
Yes, I had the same experience. I hung up and then called the number see who it was. They asked for SSN to take you off their list. This is obviously a front for an identify theft operation. It should be reported to the Michigan Attorney General's office. If no one else has done this, I will.
Just a clarification: I gave them no information. As soon as they asked for the SSN, I hung up. They were somewhat smooth and sleazy at the same time when they asked for this information. They said something like, "We realize that this is sensitive information and we are asking in strict confidence, but we need your SNN to verify that you are who you say you are." It's as though the burden of proof is on the caller to prove his or her identity to an anonymous automated call center. What gall!
