Automated call from a company saying they can refinance at a lower rate. Said press nine to speak with a representative. Did that and after asking what company was being represented, the woman said "this one" and then hung up. Tried calling back and am getting a funky busy signal sound. Am reporting to donotcall.gov.
just got it a minute ago at 1215 on may 5th. didnt pickup because of the 000 in the number obviously not my area code either. no message was left, but i was curious as to the origin and this is what i found here
Automated call from Rachel, 407-000-9879 - obviously an invalid number, with an offer to lower my credit card rate. Pressed 9 to speak to a rep. He asked: Are you calling to lower your card rate? I said: I need to know who you guys are. He hung up immediately. Our number is on the Do Not Call list, but we've been getting more and more unsolicited calls from different organizations who don't comply with the law. FCC needs to take measures against such callers, issue stricter laws or something, there is good reason people put their numbers on the Do Not Call list. I don't feel any more protected than if I didn't register my number with the FCC...
Would u like to lower your interest rates. This sounded great!! Gave credit card # and acct. # came back with information that matched statements but as soon as they hears the one with the bigger amount was closed and the other one only had a small available balance they hung up. I just don't feel safe anymore!! Everyone is looking for ways to make life easier in this economy. Sad it is just away to RIP you off.
