I just ended a very colorful conversation with representatives from the number 401-889-9876, I picked up and I had "won" a vacation package in Mexico. Its my day off and I get a kick out of telemarketers so I listened to the offer. Long story short- the only way I could claim my offer was to give a credit card number. Thankfully I am not retarded so I said no. My call was transferred to a manager, a slick talking moron who only further pushed the subject. I explained to him that I wouldn't give my credit card number to a stranger, and he said "We are not strangers we are friends trying to give you an excellent deal" From Mexico?? No thanks Pedro, the last thing I need is a hangover, a sunburn, and the swine flu. If they call any of you again, and you are in need of a giggle have a chat with them- but do NOT give them any credit card information because they will take your money and run (I googled their company name) I have to find better ways to entertain myself on my days off. Cheers-
Got a call from 1-401-889-9876 this morning at May 9, 2009, when I tried to answer the call they hang-up on me. I am glad I check this out in the internet. Actually, I was tempted to answer the call. Thanks for the info.
I, too, don't answer my phone when I see unfamiliar numbers with strange area codes. HOW ON EARTH DID THEY GET MY CELL PHONE NUMBER is what I want to know.
