I received a call at 9:30 pm from automated voice saying you account has been deactivated and press 1 to reactivate and be connected to security. After pressing 1 I was disconnected. I already new it was a scam but was interested in gaining info on the scammer in hopes of tracing the call. I will await another attempt.
They said they were the St. Vrain Valley credit union (St. Vrain is a common local name) and we needed to call them about our account. We have no account with them and they called at 6:14 am on a Saturday morning! I am p*****! Who are these people and how do we get them to stop!
I received a call on Saturday, 9/20/08, at 6:10AM. The automated caller identified itself as the St. Vrain Valley Credit Untion and it requested that I activate my credit card. I live in one of the communities served by this credit union, but I do not have an account. I immediately hung up because I expected that it was a scam. I also received an automated call last Saturday morning at approximately the same time with the same message, and I also immediately hung up. Beware!!!
I recieved a call at 6:04 PM from 419-516-4476, that is an Ohio area code, I live in Colorado. The automated caller said that our credit card was deactivated and to hit 1 to activate. We have a St.Vrain Credit Union in our area, but we are not a member. I called the number back and the automated system says they are Spyron of Lyghmont or something to that effect. No operator to answer only ext.
I live in Colorado and received two automated calls from 419-516-4476, the first in the daytime giving a recording about the St. Vrain Credit Union credit card and then hanging up, the second time past 11:30 at night but the call was disconnected just as I answered it. (I *69'd the number.)
We have both an unlisted and a no-call number. While we once had an account with that credit union, decades ago, we have no credit card or business with them now.
