408-264-XXXX scammers. They've been calling on 408-264-2636 during weekdays and Sundays with average of 10 to 20 calls per day. Now they have switched to 2672 and 2832 number and doing the same. The number uses the caller ID of innocent third person (2672=Caitlin M Stottrup, 2636=Geraldine M Levy, 2832=Maxine Olson) as a victim and pretend they are not scams. The same old method when you pick up there's no one there and hungs up. When you call back the number says it is of a terminated or disconnected line. National Do Not Call Registry means nothing to them. They have this confidence that they can get away. When you receive calls from 408-264-XXXX simply DO NOT PICK UP. Let the phone ring and DO NOT PICK UP. Do what you need to do like registering your number on the Do Not Call.
Received phone call from this number an hour ago. It seems like (408) 264-xxxx always a phone call from
weirdo and spammer. Therefore, I don't typically pick up the phone when I see (408) 264-xxxx. In the past
month or so, this would be a 3rd (408) 264-xxxx to my home. I checked on the internet and everyone else
received calls from these numbers. Please find out who placed the call and levy fines to these people.
This is now the 27th 408-number that I've blocked this year, but first with 408-264- The I-D-10-Ts keep trying, but this won't get through to my phone with this number, anymore.
