This thread seems to be old, but this number is still around - they called my cell phone today. I never answer when I do not recognize the number/if it's someone I do not know. They left a recording on my voice mail with a "case number" and the usual "call us back or litigation will be started against you", etc. The call back number they left is 888-512-5897 which when I googled it, didn't have much information. I'm not calling them, just blocking them and making sure I'm on the DNS list. Scammers!!!!!
@ Carri - One of the most effective ways to retaliate against this kind of harrassing call is to contact the State AG's office in the state the calls are coming from and file a complaint. Most Attorney Generals offices allow you to do this online at no charge.
In this case, the calls are coming from New Jersey. NJ is very much a Big Brother Nanny-State government so it should be easy to file against the entity behind this number. Best wishes for your success!
@ Carri - In fact, it's from Pennsauken NJ, a suburb in South Jersey. I believe its in either Camden County or Gloucester County? Maybe Burlington County? The county gummint may also be willing to help you.
They often hire retired police detectives on a part-time basis to work these kinds of cases to fight against credit identity theft.
Dude called and started talking about a dental insurance plan. I tried to interrupt him but he kept on yakking then hung up on me. His name was Jack. Right!
