Caller immediately hung up when I answered. I called the number from my cell phone, and it immediately went to a voice mail message that said, "Thank you for calling back." If you are not interested in our promotions and wish to be put on our 'do-not-call list', please press 1 now..."
I never oblige these message requests with a response. I want them to think that I dialed a wrong number, thus not confirming their initial call to me. That would give them both my cell# and my landline# that they originally called.
I just got the call from 360-322-6687, Card Services, told me they were American Credit Assistance. Lead her on, yeah over 2 grand on cards, good standing with payments, yadayadayada. Finally I said "You guys have a nice little business going, what do I have to do to get a job with ACA? She said "Oh my God!" and hung up. I was sorely disappointed, it sounds like soooo much fun, having people swearing at you, hanging up on you, shine you on, just what I am looking for to fullfill my desire for feeling like a useful member of society! These people will, never, never give up. We need someone to come up with a device that can lock their line open but still allow our line to work. Dreaming is allowed. I would be not be surprised to hear of someone going postal at one of these places if someone ever gets the line on their address.
The callers are the drug-addicted "card services" scammers, who call us, pretending to be associated wit our credit card companies, in an attempt to fool us into giving them our credit card numbers, so they can rip us off. People that have given their card numbers to these junkies have suffered severe financial losses. Beware of these lowlifes, and warn others, before they are cheated!
I answered twice, after getting too too many messages on my machine about my second and final notice, (shouldn't it have stopped after a "first" final notice that was never a message?) First time a woman answered, I asked nicely "What company is this?", she couldn't hang up on me fast enough. I hoped it wasn't a mistake to call back and put myself on their do not call list, should I have to do that when I am on the government do not call list and renew that before it expires? Today I got another call from them and I answered and I waited. My question to the man was "Are you going to hang up on me?" and he did.
getting ready to do that. i got an answer forn the DNC list and they gave me the links and said if they are found to be doing this it is a $150 fine for each violation. maybe more nheed to do this. maybe we could bankrupt them. if could use the supplemental income...haha!!!
