Got the call yesterday, hit 1 to talk to someone. Guy offered me lower interest for my credit cards, and asked how much credit card debt I was in. I don't have credit cards and I don't have debt. He hung up when I questioned him
I got a call from this # yesterday. I got a new cell # and have been getting calls for the previous owner. I pressed 1 to tell them this is no longer Mike's phone & operator says, "We were calling for you - how much credit card debt do you have? Give me some info..." Since I have NO credit card - I told him to please remove my # from your calling list. He then proceeded to tell me, "there's a $495.50 charge to remove your name from our list" WTF??? I told him that I previously worked in telemarketing & I know it's THE LAW that if someone asks to be removed, you must do it - free of charge. He started telling me no & asking me for personal info, etc. I then hung up & tried to call back to speak w/ mgr but got busy signal. Then I wondered how many people actually fell for this scam!
