I'm getting used to all these scam calls from spoofed numbers, but this is a first: a credit card scam from one of our local numbers!!!! I later tried the number to tell the person someone had spoofed it, but got a fax machine. My husband answered the call, them proceeded to give the scam artists a lot of bad info to waste their time.
I'm not sure how many of these off-shore scam artists there are because they change their numbers so often. But I'm sure there are more than one because they seem to have slightly different MOs. Either ignore their calls or try to waste their time with false information. We even had one company where we got all the way to a supervisor who tried tell us that it was ILLEGAL to give false information. That's a laugh! She was really angry, but she stopped calling for a while.
