When I receive a call from a new number I put it in my contacts list under Scum Suckers and assign it NO ring tone so at least after the first call they don't bother me anymore (I have filled all of the numbers in each and am up to Scum Sucker 47 now). Some phone companies will allow you to block a limited amount of numbers, however this is only a whack-a-mole solution but the only one I can offer.
They just keep calling. Asking to lower my interest rate. They need to quite harassing me. Really a pain in the b##t. Keep calling my cellphone leaving a recordered message. When I call all I get is a recorded message as well. They need to be stopped.
Come On People! If you cant figure out this is a SCAM on the first 5 seconds of the call, you need to open your eyes! I purposely pushed 1 just to speak with the scam artist. They cant even tell you what CC company you belong too. After telling them what a worthless piece of trash they are and to get a real job like the rest of Americans, I hung up.
SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM.
Do not ever give any personal information to anyone over the phone or internet! The companies who need it, already have it! Common Sense!
I received a call from the same number this morning, with a recorded message about lowering my interest rate (on what, I do not know). The number appears to be in Washington state. This call coincides with unauthorized charges on my credit card. Both occurred shortly after I provided my credit card information and cell phone number to secure a reservation at a Marriott hotel. Has anyone else received the call shortly after a stay at a Marriott hotel?
