Because the call is intended for whoever answers or hears the message, not a particular person. They're unlikely to have any idea who you are, they're just trying to scare you out of money. If you don't need an answering device, you can foul things up for them. No kind of answer means no threats.
Same guy.........pending ltigation against you.............need to hear from your attorney, BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH. Get a freakin' life. BYE BYE..........BLOCKED. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So tired of the bottom feeders!!!!!!!!!
Just got a phone call from this number claiming that we had pulled out loans over a felony amount at a bank located in Florida. First problem was the bank in reference does not have a corporate office in Iowa, second problem was we never pulled out any loans from that bank and we knew that, third problem was they did not state who the call was for and it was an automated dialer that called me. Scam artist extraordinaire have been reported to our local police
