I got a call and it hung up, I called it back to find that "supposedly" it's a bill collector. However when I called the number the person answering did not answer as if I was calling the number for a business... you know like " Good Morning thank you for calling______, this is ______, how can I help you?" I got a persons name as if I was calling my neighbor. When I stated that someone called me from this number I then was asked if I was such and such... I said yes. I was then told the call was in reference to "A" bill. I asked what bill, I was then asked for my social security number! I said no, I am such and such what bill are you calling about? The person then said to me "I need your social in order to discuss the bill." I said again.... NO! If I've identified my myself your needing my social to tell me about "A BILL" is not happening. I hung up.
Moments later, I got another call and of course I went thru the same crap as before but this time I asked the young lady for her social to verify who she is and she hung up! Be careful people, please identity theft is off the scale and I find it strange that when I ran the number on GOOGLE, YELLOW PAGES, there's no public info about the owner(company) for this number.
I have been getting at least 2-3 calls a week from this number. I check the ID and don't answer it and they never leave a message. I think I will try what Confused did and see what happens..
