Calls about 8 a.m. every day Monday - Friday. If I pick up no one answers, if I don't they never leave a message. This has been going on for about a month.
SCAM! Message says they're calling about a returned item from my bank to a phone number that my bank doesn't have and I never give out to anyone. Nice try, losers!
THIS NUMBER CALLED ME AT MY WORK AND SAID THEY WERE GONNA TAKE ME TO COURT. THEY SAID FROM A RETURNED ITEM FROM A BANK I NEVER DEALT WITH??? WHAT SHOULD I DO??
I WASN'T SURE WHAT TO DO MYSELF; I STARTED BY CALLING MY BANK AND CONFIRMED WITH THEM THAT THEY HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY CALLS FROM SUCH A NUMBER ABOUT ANY OF MY ACCOUNTS. THE BANK ALSO TOLD ME THAT THIS KIND OF CALL IS GENERALLY A "PHISHING" CALL WHERE THE CALLER DOESN'T ACTUALLY HAVE ANY OF YOUR INFORMATION EXCEPT PERHAPS YOUR NAME AND ARE INSTEAD TRYING TO TRICK YOU INTO GIVING AS MUCH PERSONAL AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION TO THEM; I.E. ASKING FOR AN ALTERNATE PAYMENT ACCCOUNT TO SETTLE THE SUPPOSED "DEBT" & AVOID GOING TO COURT. THE BEST THING MY BANK SAID TO DO IS 1) PUT YOURSELF ON THE DO NOT CALL LIST IF YOU'RE NOT ALREADY ON IT (YOU CAN REGISTER HERE: https://www.donotcall.gov/default.aspx ) 2) BLOCK THE CALLER IF YOU HAVE THAT SERVICE ON YOUR PHONE 3) TELL THE CALLER TO STOP CALLING YOU AND 4) JUST REMEMBER TO NEVER GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION. HOPE THAT HELPS YOU OUT :)
