Man with East Indian accent calls our business line, claims to be with Centurylink (whose service we do not have). Told him we don't have their service, then he claims that Frontier and Centurylink are working together in our area (again suspicious, since those two companies are competitors). Asks for our phone numbers, then gives me a code supposedly to give us a "35% discount on our phone service." Asks me to say that I understand that this call is coming from my phone provider. I am very uncertain about this. Knew our address, didn't know my name.
Called my business said he was with CenturyLink offering a 35% discount for next 6 months. Tried to give a confirmation code and asked us to confirm our address so that the discount could be properly applied to our bill.
I told him that if he works for CenturyLink, he should already have our billing address and that he can apply whatever discount they want to give to our bill and we shouldn't need a confirmation code for anything. If it's a true discount, it would be reflected on our bill and if not, then oh well. He got really upset when I refused to provide any information to him, and ended with calling me a bunch of curse words then hung up. definitely a scam!
Proceeded to tell me that my business would receive 35% discounts for 6months. I told him that I wasn't giving him any personal info. I told him to take me off the calling list or my attorney would be in touch. I told him that this was a scam and then he proceeded to tell me it wasn't(imagine that) He then told me that he had my full name (which I informed him that he in fact didn't) and all he needed was my date of birth! SCAM SCAM SCAM!!!!!
