This pond slime called on my cell, which I seldom have turned on. I had it on only because I was expecting a call back from someone I had called. The robotic pond slime. complete with perky girl voice, said "Congratulations, you have won an all-expense paid cruise to the Bahamas. All you have to do is answer a brief survey, and your cruise will be awarded. Please press 1..." I hung up. Too bad, pond scum - I don't like boats, and I don't like humidity. Swim away - may the sharks have dinner with you.
Going through the posts here I saw a lot of "free cruise" and "free Disneyworld" scams listed. Either the scammers are changing tactics or more than one group of scammers is using the same spoofed number, since the message they left me was different. They left a message on my machine that started before the outgoing message ended. They repeated it at least twice since the recorded message had the end of their message followed by the full message again, and their full message did not run as long as my outgoing message as the perky female voice was reading at a mile a minute pace.
Message left was:
"This is an important announcement, please do not hang up. The US Department of Education has announced that consumers may now qualify to have their student loans forgiven. Please press 1 now to answer two simple questions to see if you qualify, or press 9 to be removed from future notices."
Received the exact same message from 213-503-8127 & 213-257-5233 several weeks ago.
