My English not so good. This person wanted to know I need my DSL changed. I tell them NO, I was born a MALE I want to stay Male. If I change my mind I will move somewhere like LA or NYC where they do that sort of thing.
OK, so yes, like you, I've been getting calls from this number CLAIMING to be AT&T service center, but I refuse to pick up because I am assuming it's a spoofed number, and therefore a scam, AND like you, I got a call from myself apparently. I thought MAYBE it was possible that since I have call waiting I might have accidentally SOMEHOW called myself, and since I have call waiting, and caller ID, if someone calls me while I'm on the line, it will come up on the ID. So I tested the theory. But no, it's not possible to dial yourself on the same line, whether you have call waiting or not. You'll just get a busy signal.
And no, AT&T does not really care about their customers or they'd do what so many other phone companies do, and allow blocking of phone numbers, but they don't. So I have to use the junk fax blocker option on my copy/scan/printer/fax in one to block unwanted numbers. I don't know how many it will hold ultimately, but so far it's continuing to allow me to add numbers as needed.
Yes same as below, they told me there was a service problem, and when I asked for specifiics could not give me any. Wanted to charge me 24.?? for first 12 months then increase to 7?.?? each month. I said no thank you and hung up, cause female on other end barely spoke English
Got a call from the caller Id ATT SVC CENTER. She told me that due a recent repair request ATT wanted me to upgrade. I told her that I was not aware of a DSL problem and that I would have to call the support center for details. She hung up
This caller pretends to be from AT&T offering an upgrade to service. He has data and info which will make you believe he's real, but then asks for DOB, email, etc. It's an identity theft scam. BEWARE, it's quite convincing. They must have accessed AT&T's database because they have info they couldn't have had otherwise.
