Got a call from some young RUDE girl yesterday wanting to verify my address. When I asked her why, she just kept beating around the bush. I told her that I was not going to give her my address! She told me that she had it anyway! I said well if you have it, then WHY are you calling me to verify it?!?!? Then I told her I wasn't verifying anything! She said..."Then you have have yourself a good afternoon (VERY RUDELY)." And I told her to have a very good life and hung up on her! I kept calling the number back this am that showed up on my caller ID (the 404 #) until I got somebody!! Spoke to another No Brainer; asked for a supervisor (who of course was in a meeting!), but they know how I feel!
First Call Tech Support and they wanted to verify they had the correct address to send us some information also recieved a call from this #215-220-2343 phila pa also. and something bout a refund. call was breaking up.
This call comes in all the time, at home and in the office(in another state). I just told them< no thank you) and hung up. Said they were calling to verify billing address and tel. # because they were sending me a rebate on my phone bill.
I received this call also this morning .A woman said she is from tech support and needed to verify my office address and phone number.She then switched me to a guy before I could say anything.He then asked if my infromation was correct.I said yes,then he said I would be receiving the package in 5 days.I then said what company is this ,I didn't order anything so I'm not signing for your package.He told me there is no charge at the time its for my phone.He then spoke very fast about everything thats in there paper work.Didn't sound good.So I ask what company is this I dont want their crap.He hung up on me.
I called the number back he gave me it was a sex talk number.I hung up! I called the number back that they called me from . I was on hold for 8 min. and hung up.Don't have time for their scam. Please, don't give them any information hang up on them!
Thanks to everyone for all the posts. Got call today but didn't answer--my usual response. So thankful for caller ID. and before that *69. The more savy technology gets to identify the scams the more they proliferate. I also have received call from 215 220-2343 for "technical support" as noted in another post. Since my exchange is 215 I did answer that awhile back (but I keep record of all these annoying calls). So now I am even leary of answering calls in my own area so unless it is identified, I'll let answering machine pick up. It does pose a problem at times because our number is also a business number as well as personal.
