No phone call, no yellow paper. Just a call from my bank to say 6 fraudelent transactions had been made totaling over $500 whilst my card was WITH ME in my wallet and I hadn't accessed my account for at least 24 hours. I live in Australia and thankfully my bank is refunding the money ASAP but it seems after reading these posts it has been going on for over a year all over the world - why is no one looking into how this is happening and stopping it?
A note on my door directed me to call this number as if it is a package to pick up from NW Distribution. The elderly lady who answered wanted to bring a Vortex vacuum cleaner to the house for a free (sponsored by Discover Card) demonstration, *within the hour*. Tried to conduct a survey by asking our line of work, the credit card we use most, what type of vacuum cleaner we owned etc, then yelled at me to hold on while she took another call- without putting me on hold or even putting the handset down. Just hollered the stock greeting again to somebody else(there were phones ringing the whole time she was speaking). At that point I hung up, laughing. Real pro operation.
Got the same thing. Yellow slip of paper with the word "NOTICE" at the top. Then says please call 425-286-5595 from 10am to 6pm Mon-Fri.
Regarding_________ (package)
Then says they have it on hold for you and gives you three options with checkboxes behind them:
Notice Sent
Will Call
Delivered
I knew this was a cellphone and not interested in wasting my time. I had not ordered anything lately, but I do not appreciate the idea of someone going around trying to get people to call them under the pretense that they are holding a package for them. Typical WA white trash.
These low life's left a note on my porch as well, the real problem here is they entered my property and walked right past a no trespass sign and left the note right under a no soliciting sign, truly law breaker and these people should be charged with trespass violations.
Thanks for the post. I came home to the same yellow "NOTICE" today. I knew something wasn't right when the "PACKAGE" was not being delivered by UPS or FEDEX. It feels like a bait & switch or at least false advertisement. I’ll be sharing this w/ my neighbors.
Right... I'm sitting in my living room watching TV and someone put this note on my door. They don't even knock. First time I called the number the voice mailbox was full. Second time I called the lady said 'no they don't knock on the door'. This is a solicitation... what a bunch of BS!!
