Recently applied for car loan online...ever since then, this same number calls about 3-5 times a day. Your number is dialed automatically by the computer. Once either you or your answer machine picks up, the computer generated call connects to the next available live rep...thus the dead air for a few seconds while doing so. All this person is doing is verifying that the call has connected to a live person, and documents that for your info to be passed along to numerous other companies. They usually hang up after that, with little to no conversation. If you fuss and cuss at them, they will do the same in return b/c even though the number shows up, the call is untraceable. Damn shame
They are calling harrassing me about there's a law suit againt my ss# and they calls all day and every 5 to 10 minutes everyday trying to get me to verify my ss number and personal info.
