This is a 3rd party telemarketing company trying to "qualify you" for lower credit card rates. It seems like it's proactive Debt Counseling or something of that nature. I actually answered and played along and the guy was rude and refused to divulge any company info so it was obviously a scam!
It is a scam. They called my 8 year old's cell phone claiming to need to speak with him about his credit card and lower the interest rate. All they wanted was a credit card number.
Yea, I picked up and they didn't say anything but they called again later and left a message... They just called this morning and I just hung up on them.
This is the third call I received on my cell. Last time I told the jerk I was on the National Don't Call Registry. He hung up. I filed a complaint this morning. I encourage you to file complaints also. Here is the link:
just got a call...then i googled the area code to find this message board. Amazing how people think alike nowadays =). Got no reply when i answered. Figured it must be some type of credit scam thing as usual.
