They called my cell phone on a Friday night at 7:14PM. When I called back using my BLOCKED landline,(after looking up their number online) they claimed that 'someone must have used my number as a reference' and wanted to 'input my number into their computer' to check -OR- I 'must have an account with them." I told them that (1) I CERTAINLY DID NOT have an account with them and (2) NO ONE has my cell number that could possibly use me as a reference as I do not give out my cell to anyone other than close friends and family. I was NOT comfortable giving out my cell to them, even tho' they had just called it.
If they call again I will look into ID Theft using my cell number or ILLEGAL telemarketing by Rent-A-Center.
