I called the number back a few times. I got someone on the phone that said I have registered with Mobile Money Machines. Which of course I hadn't.
He said my number would be removed from call lists.
You signed up for something recently and your number was harvested and now you need to change your number or else it will only get worse. ( Changing your number could be worse if you don't get a fresh number but instead an old number with other peoples names (history) attached.
If you call this or any number back and it plays Music. You need to WAIT FOR THEM TO ANSWER !
It is a HOLD System and they are probably busy for only 1 minute while they collect themselves and their computer auto generates an opportunity for you and also checks your # history with them to see if you had previous "offer_name" available which they will now re-mention to you.
Wait for them to answer (2 minutes max) Then speak nice to them (this may be difficult but stay calm) just tell them " Hi! I am wondering how you guys received my number, What is your company name ? What is your location ? Do you have a website ? What is the website address ?
( I DIDN'T SIGN UP WITH YOU GUYS AND THIS IS A PRIVATE NUMBER SO I AM WONDERING HOW YOU HAVE THIS INFORMATION AND MY (number, first or last name, any info they said prior) ??

Simple questions will get you some simple answers so you understand why you shouldn't have ever given your number to craigslist ads or other internet ads, Services like Ebay and Paypal, etc.
There are thousands of phishers on craigslist at any one moment and all over the World.
( Same as other ad services. If you have to leave phone number, look at getting disposable phone numbers or 2nd phone number bind to your phone which you can later drop and keep primary family & friends number private.
Also there is Spyware which will take Contact List's from infected computers and could harvest\sell or use these.
I know what its like to change your number you've had for years and then your Mother is unable to call because she doesn't know the new number because its more difficult.
Be wise. Do not share information on any form unless you are going to be victimized if you don't.
They use different numbers and different opportunity scams but usually all deal with making money from home bologna. James owns HomeIncome.com . If it's not James fault then it's someone else's fault and they will be arrested eventually for these scams.
When I called them back and waited for a musical minute or two, The lady was very shady sounding ( Read my previous postings in this listing) I could read her like a book. (She is a noob at that job)
Anyways, She said www.HomeIncome.com two times during the conversation.
I don't sign up for anything. Never. Nothing. So how did they get my private number ?
From TMOBILE ? HMMMM ? NOPE You have TMobile ? I assume some of you do not and I wish it was a required field on 800notes.
From Computer Malware in someone elses computer in which the dumbo added me to their Contact List ?
PERHAPS YES.
From a craigslist ad that I replied to, looking for a job that had nothing to do with homeIncome or work at home bologna. Or could have been from an angry noob which signed me up for some garbage because I told her I don't want to take the job after speaking to the noob about it.
