Someone using 415-319-7006 calls several times a day, but never leaves a message. They hang up as soon as the answering machine answers. Over the past several weeks, we have gotten 4-5 calls a day and the calls are very annoying. I answered the last time they called as another web site suggested the calls come from the Smithsonian. I do not know if the call actually came from the Smithsonian, but the person that called identified they were calling regarding a renewal of a Smithsonian subscription. Told them to remove our number, do not call us again and told them we will never subscribe to anything that has people harassing people for a renewal.
This number called me earlier today on my house phone. They were asking for me, and somehow had my home address. I'm sure it was a scam, I learned at a young age to never give out credit card numbers over the phone.
Basicly they wanted me to resuscribe to Catfancy. Their is two problems; the price the gave me was higher than the one on the magazines site and the magazine isn't called Catfancy anymore, it was recently changed to Catster.
They repeated back my home address, for confermation the lady said, and before they got to the requesting payment I told them I was going to pay later online. I then hung up. Late last year (I don't remember the number) same exact scam, also had my home address.
