Who called from 4016489484

I just don't answer long distance numbers anymore.

Got a text from this number, addressing me as 'Leonard', saying I was approved for a $10K loan.  Almost called back thinking someone else was stealing my identity.  They used 'Zero Down' Company (an actual small loan company in Tennessee), Glad I checked here first.  Beware the calls AND texts!

They  call  I dont know any one from Rhode Island And they dont leave a message

Calling at early and late hours, threatened with more harassment because I voiced a complaint. Filing a complaint via email: with the FCC consumercomplaint.fcc.gov

I started getting calls from this number about a week ago. They called from 8-15 times a day. Asking to be taken off their list did no good. The number is from out of the country, so the correct law enforcement and government agencies said they can do nothing. Thanks to some people here, I decided to take a stand. For the past 24 hours, my husband and I have taken turns of harassing this number back. For the first two hours, we called them back constantly. We sang show tunes to them. We asked them if they wanted to talk to our dogs. We asked them their opinion on TV and movies. And I'd just call and say "Please hold for the next available representative." When they called back a couple hours later, I answered with "Bury the body deeper, hon, we have another one of them calls." Then I spent another hour calling them back. They tried calling two more times yesterday and I responded as I mentioned earlier. Then this morning they called again. My husband answered and sang and then laughed hysterically. We called them back, harassing for 10 minutes. Then they called again almost two hours later. I answered by singing "Happy Birthday to me." Then I called back 3 times with nonsense, asking if they wanted to talk to my dogs, then if they wanted to talk to my cats, then if they had an opinion on a TV show I was watching. My husband gleefully took the phone and called them and started singing and laughing hysterically. I'm happy to announce that I am now apparently blocked by them. Legal routes don't work with this group. Run with it and harass them back in a most obnoxious way. Be patient, but they will go away.
