i've been getting US pharmacy solicitations several times a week now for a year.... they usually come in blocked, but this time i got the 360 515 3882
number
aside from the therapy of calling them every foul word i've ever heard uttered by an ironworker, there doesn't seem to be any solution...
there is only one way that i know of to solve the problem.....
paypal has the ability to issue virtual credit card numbers, so you don't have to give your permanant credit card number out to vendors....
here's the solution..... purchase the smallest amount of goods you can from
these [***], using a valid credit card number issued by paypal....
wait a week, then reverse the charges, as you haven't recieved the product.
if even 2 dozen people do this, these [***] will lose their visa merchant account, effectively putting them out of buisness.
based on the nature of the enterprise, even a half dozen complaints in a month
can get a merchant account cancelled.
yeah, it's a pain.... i've done it to them twice.... they may be offshore, but their crit card merchant account is in seattle.
you really want to stop them? sitting here bitching won't do the job... i just
told you where the achilles heel is located at....
one person alone can't do the job, but two dozen of us can shut their doors....
I too am getting calls from this number at the same time every night. Another number about the sametime and it has caller ID blocked. It is an international number +36 051 53882. Looks like it is in Hungary.
Sombody finally called International Telcom about all these calls from 360 515 3882 - the number is not assigned to a customer and the calls are not being made from our network. It looks like somebody is spoofing the caller ID - which means there is nothing that International Telcom can do about since the calls are NOT being made by one of our customers. If you get these calls call your local phone company and ask them to block the calls and try to find out where they are really coming from.
