Looks like they are busy telemarketing from this number based on all comments this month. Received a call on my cell but did not answer, caller ID says Bristol, CT. Glad iPhone now allows you to block calls.
Answered call and a pre-recorded message says "You can reduce your interest rate to 6 percent. This is a limited offer and is your final call. Press 1 for more information, or 2 if no more notices are wanted." Well, that makes no sense as they just said this is my final call, so why press 2 to get no more calls? No company name was given and no type of account, credit card, or mortgage mentioned. I am blocking this number on my phone. Scam alert.
It is also a robo call. My call blocking device automatically blocks all robo calls and since my phone never rang, this is just some boiler room operation of lying thieves using a robot to generate random phone calls.
Never answer a call from an unknown number, especially if it's from outside your calling area. There are just too many scamming thieves out there who constantly do this same thing, day after day after day. The DNC is a joke, and sadly our government and the big communications companies will do nothing to prevent these scams on innocent citizens, usually the elderly. I vote that Washington DC be cut loose from its moorings, allowed to drift down the Potomac, out into the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, and then on out into the North Atlantic never to be seen nor heard from again!!! Hey, a guy can dream, can't he?
Got call for reduction of my visa card. After tapping 1 an india guy came on asking if I had any visa cards with over 3500$ usable credit. Told him to go to hell and hung up.
