1st my Cell Phone number is on the DNC list.
2nd, I press 1 to talk to a live person.
The person started with "If you have $5,000.00 or more on your credit cards, I can reduce your rates." No mention of a company name, so I asked. The response was CreditCard Services.
When I asked what the call pertained to, I got a script telling me that they could reduce my intrest rates on my MasterCard and Visa as long as I owed $5,000.00 or more.
I own both Credits cards. So I asked an obvious question, "what bank that I do business with are you representing?" The response was "we are here to reduce your interest rates if I owed $5,000.00 or more on my credit cards."
Then I asked how they got my informaiton? I was told they work with MasterCard and Visa. I then asked which company shared my informaiton. Again I got they work with MasterCard and Visa.
At this point it was very obvious this was a telemarking/phishing call. I proceeded to inform the lady that never provided a name that I was on the Do Not Call registry and it is very ovbious that the call did not pertain to a company that I have had business delaing with. Next thing I know, the call was disconnected.
I attempted to call the number back in my caller ID, I get a network message saying that the "number is not is service".
Appears that not everything is on the up-and-up with this company. They are hiding behind a false caller ID.
We get these calls frequently from different numbers and different IDs. Today's call from this number showed an ID of NA. Now that I've found this site, I'm going to write the numbers down for each call and report all of them.
