Called me and I foolishly gave them info on my card, then called my card company to stop my card and issue another, just had a feeling that they were not on the level. Then discovered all these comments, glad I stopped my card!!
Another good way to keep those jack [***] on line is to ask them to wait while you are getting your credit cards. I would make them wait for at least 5 min before getting back to them with some fake credit card numbers (and then keep them for another 10 -15 min going over my card numbers sounding very confused and asking some stupid questions).
They need to place thousandths phone calls to find one naive person who would give them personal information they use to commit fraud. Which means they can afford only seconds per any given phone call to determine if the person is a good match to become next l victim in the scam. By keeping them on the phone as long as you can, you helping other people.
This telephone number keeps calling and leaving voicemails about lower credit card rates. I answered the phone on 6/20, and pressed the button to speak to a person. As soon as that PERSON got on the phone, I asked what company they represented. She did not answer the question. I told her emphatically to take my number off her recall list. I again received a call today. Why isn't the State of Florida stopping these crank calls???
