I almost got scammed today by a company called Profit From Home. I was given this number and told that this is my trainer's phone number and that he would help me learn to work from home. They asked for my credit card number but I told him to call me back and I would provide it. I called this number that was supposedly my trainer's number but it was an automated system that answered.
This number is being used as part of a "Work at Home Scam" called, Profit From Home.
These calls are from Telemarketing call centers that call you phone to ping you so their ads on craigslist can
be seen more and if more people see the ads the call centers get more calls. Sometimes they are using your phonenumber to bill calls. If you have unlimited phone service ,check the bill they could also bill calls to your number. call the police and your cell phone company and report it as harrassment and file a police report. Also file with DO NOT CALL LIST.
So far today I have received 33 calls from this number...I do not understand the point in them calling me if they are just going to hang up...I can not even say this is a scam..but it is for sure harassment!!
I am receiving a crazy amount of phone calls from this number 417-800-2376. When I pick up there's no answer. This just started today after I entered my phone number in the Profit from Home websites.
