This scam appears to be targeting cell phones for some reason. I never got a spam call on my cell until this morning. I only saw a number with an area code that I did not recognize so I let it roll to Voicemail, Upon looking it up I found it was 'supposedly' from Taft, CA. Voice message stated that there is no problem with my credit card but if I want to reduce my interest rate to 6% to press 2 and to eliminate any further call press 3. This is without a doubt a scam, for I never pay interest since I always pay my credit card bill in full each month. I sincerely hope that these people do not find a gullible older person who does not have any way to find out this information. .
I have lived along time and this type of thing is always around, always scams of some type. I have learned get it in writing or in person never by phone for anything.
i even heard that prisoners are used for sales type of calls to generate money for the prisons and used as training for rehabilitation but unfortunately they are not monitored too well and try illegal solicitations during their training times
Just received this number calling me at 9:00 pst. Banks and credit card companies will never ask private information over the phone. how come our federal govt doesnt shut these people down?.
