Consistently get a blind - dial "Unknown Name" with 321-304-9999 as the id.
Pressing any button seems to put me in a queue to talk to someone, but never seems to go thru.
I'm on the do not call list, which would be enforced by the government, excepting that the entire bureau has been gutted by the last administration. Not to worry though... when I find the location...
I got their call today. Came in as Florida on the caller ID with the number 321-304-9999 and had something to do with lowering the interest on my credit card. After pressing 1 to speak to a rep so I could ask them why they were calling my number since it's on the Do Not Call List, they said something along the lines of "your name is Scott Peterson". I said yes. Then they had the balls to say something along the lines of killing my wife, Lacey, and hung up. I tried to call back and got the same message as the poster above me saying the call couldn't be completed as dialed, etc. Would sure love it if someone can tell me how, in this day and age, that these people cannot be traced, shut down and fined into oblivion.
Agreed. I got the same call from "Florida." They said it was urgent that I call them back to lower my credit card interest rate.
Why can't something be done about this? Why be on the DNC list?
I called the FTC and the State Attorney General regarding a similar issue and they were useless.
The FTC's web page actually says: "The FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection works For The Consumer to prevent fraud, deception, and unfair business practices in the marketplace." Yeah, right.
I gave them the phone number of a guy who was trying to take my money and they said they would add the phone number of the caller to their database for future trend analysis, and then told me to call the State Attorney General's office. What a joke. It's not even like the guy was trying to block the call. They can call him and he will even answer the phone and speak to you but they won't do anything.
When I persisted, all the lady told me was she only takes the information. What more do they want?
These scam artists are costing consumers millions!
I got my call last night about 5:00 PM. I asked for the name of the person and then asked for the phone number he gave it to me so quick so I asked again and he said why would I give it to you again. I informed him he was not allowed to call me because I was on the Donot Call List and I wanted to report their harrassing phone call, He said that I wouldn't do anything, I asked are you sure, and he said that I wasn't going to do anything. I called *69 got the number and then filed with the FTC, I guess when the government finally gets around to checking them out they will have a new number.
