I just received a call stating that they could lower my interest rate - red flags went off when she asked for the pin on the back of my card. I immediatly called my credit card company and they explained that there are scams going on right now stating that they can lower interest rates - he also explained that this is legal due to the fact that people are giving them all the info that they need - with doing this there could also be a fee from $800 and up - by giving them your info is concidered authorization for charges. Please beware!!!!
I axed them to remove my name from their list. He said I would have to give them my credit card number, date of birf and my social security number. I gave them the information.
He called back ten minutes later and said he needed my PIN and any other credit cards I owned.
These people must think I am stoopid just because I have a negrodialect.
Constant calls from this number offering a lower credit call rate, sometimes twice a day. I tired pressing "2" to remove my eligibility for the offer with no result. Today I pressed "1" to speak to a person and told them to stop calling me. The person hung up on me. Infuriating!
