When someone starts out lying about who she is representing I hang up and contact the boys over at the agency. They will be paying them a visit. Tick, tock.
I receive calls from 714-551-5501 nightly around 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM EST. The Caller ID says 714-551-5501AA. One time someone asked me to participate in a survey. I refused. Now the caller hangs up every time I answer. How do I stop it????
This is part of a nationwide attempt to get your financial info. and/or money. Sometimes they identify themselves as "card services" and leave a message to call back right away. Other times there is no message left. If you get a call from anyone you don't recognize, check this service (800 notes). I recommend you report this to the F.B.I. and police. If you get one of these it will continue from other area codes. This is a criminal attempt to misrepresent and get money or information. The numbers that have called are:
336-903-6675
800-327-8622
714-551-5562
866-816-7018
801-666-6337
Once this starts, it continues and keeps going. This has been occurring for over two months in my case, and each call comes from another area code the next day or in a couple of days, including the weekend, and up to after 9p.m. Notify authorities about this. If they get old people or gullible ones, and no doubt this happens all the time, lives are being destroyed most likely. How it starts I don't know.. but since I had a friend years ago who was a "telemarketer number supplier", I would guess that someone has gotten your phone number and perhaps your I.D. and is selling it to groups that use it. I have terminal cancer from exposure to Agent Orange, which causes a condition known as chemobrain, and makes people open to suggestion. Also, thanks to a couple of companies that have falsely reported that I owe them money, such as T-Mobile, and who then "sold" my debt to a collection agency, that recently offered to settle a false debt for $650+ for $50, these sorts of shady groups may be selling my and your phone numbers. If nothing else, request full information on the company calling and if you get it, report it. I saw a piece on 60 Minutes, I think, about a group on the East Coast, run by a former felon, that was using "debt collectors" to falsely threaten people that had debts with arrest, which of course is another lie and not possible by Federal Law and likely the laws of your state. Since this scam is interstate, it is the job of the F.B.I. to investigate, and deal with it. Since 60 Minutes put their investigation on the air, they actually did what they are being paid for - by you and your family and neighbors! Request the authorities notify you of what they find out. You are their employer!
The company is called Datascension, Inc. I too keep getting calls from these people and i am NOT sending them an email. I googled this company and this is what I found...their toll free #. I called and left them a message to stop calling me maybe, if they get as many calls back that they're making, they'll get the hint! So here it is everyone 1-888-996-9238
We started getting calls from 714-551-5501 last night. We didn't answer, as we did not recognize the number. The caller does not leave a message. I answered today and heard nothing but dead air. We're on the Do Not Call list and have had pretty good luck with it until this number. Not looking forward to the litany of calls I'm apparently expecting, according to the previous posts.
Just go a call from this number and said it was a survey. I told them I do not do surveys and I am on the do not call list. They proceeded to argue with me about my do not call list and said surveys were not on it. I told them again do not call me and I don't do surveys and hung up. The man was very rude in the conversation.
