I answered a call from this number and it was an automated operator asking if I needed prayer. I do, so I pressed 1 as instructed. They asked for my name and gave just enough time for me to state my name. After that the operator stated that I would have 10 seconds to state why I needed prayer if I would like to. I said that I need prayer for "immediate and extended family problems". There was just enough time for that statement. After they said that they will pray for me and will call within 24 hrs to pray with me. It's only been a few moments since I hung up so I cannot report on the follow up call just yet. When it comes to prayer I will take all I can get lol. They did not ask for any personal information other than my name and a brief description of what I needed prayer for so I felt comfortable accepting this call. It's odd but like I said we need prayers so badly right now and I like to believe there are genuine Christians out there so here's hoping.
I received same call within my own area code, at first I hit 1 for prayer, said they would phone back 24hrs, within 5 min I called back, hit 2 I believe,it says to never hear from us again! Don't know how they get phone numbers! Glad I saw the comments here! Thanks! I believe it's a skam
They use a program that dials every number in a given area code and exchange and a caller id spoofer mask the number they call from. This is a new scam that has popped up to steal money. The actual church is not making the calls but is also a victim.
