Just received a call from this number at 9:45 pm. A heavy accented guy. They wanted to confirm that I still receive my mail at my address (they even said my address). Wanted to send me a $100 gift card. Dumb SCAMMERS!
So I finally got them to stop calling me! When you answer your phone you have to wait for them to connect to you (20 seconds or so) because they are using a computer automated dialing system and sometimes it takes awhile for them to connect. It may sound like they have hung-up. Just keep saying "hello" until they finally connect to you. You will have to talk to them to get them to stop. Calling lists do not work because it is a "fake" generated #.
IF YOU WANT THEM TO STOP YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE ABRASIVE....VERY ABRASIVE!
Be confident and give them a taste of their own manipulation! I started going off on them (which is not like me) I yelled, I threatened and basically told them that I knew that this was a fake generated number, I told them that I spoke with the phone company of the number they were stealing... YES STEALING! (which is true, please read my previous posts) and what they were committing was fraud and that I was working with my local police department (even though I am not). The Indian woman started to read her script, and I still yelled over her telling her that I did not want to listen to her b/s script that she was reading from and that they better be very worried and should look up the number that they are using on the internet because there are numerous posts on what they are doing.
I also told her that I was working with not only the police but my phone company as well and not only were they committing fraud, but harassment too. I said that we were keeping a log of all their calls and that it would not be long now before we were able to trace the real # that they were calling from. I also yelled at them that it is illegal for them to be calling at the hours that they are calling at and that they should be scared, very scared because it is only a matter of time before they get caught. Every now and then I would make sure she was still on the phone and told her that I wanted to make sure she was listening to everything and that their games were only going to last so long and that they should be afraid, very afraid.
Let me just say one last time, I did not say all this in my soft, tender voice. My poor husband thought I was crazy because he did not know who I was talking to at first. Of course I don't recommend this while you are at work. Especially if you want to keep your job. Unless you are a lawyer, then your boss might be impressed. Instead, wait until no one is around. If you want them to stop harassing you then you have to take charge, be in control, but most importantly be convincing of your threatening words! They were calling me 14 time a day and as soon as I freaked out on them and let them have it, they have never called again!
Like others, I've received calls (on my cell phone) from this number SEVERAL times (early in the morning, and even late at night). I also didn't answer, and there was no message. I chose a *special* ring tone for this number ~ so, every time this number calls....I hear "The phone's for you.,I think it's the DEVIL!"
I was receiving about 30 calls a day from this number but have not gotten anymore in a few days now... I answered it, but no response. Today, I noticed there was a $6 fee from a "foreign ATM" it said on my online banking... has anyone else gotten any surprise charges?
I just got a call from 360-21093456 saying I won 100 gift card and they wanted to confirm my name and address and apt # and they have the last four digits of my credit card WTF. They read off to me my entire address, apt#, and last four of credit card I hung up weird. Did you ever get your card in the mail
