We don't even have credit cards. When it asked to push 1 to be transferred to a representative, I did so and simply said, "How do I get removed from your call list?"...they hung up. I called back and got a recording that said, "Thank you for calling back. To be removed from this list press 1 (again) which I did. I do not expect to stop receiving these calls. If anyone knows what I need to do to get them to stop, I'm all over it.
I have received numerous calls over the YEARS from "Card Services". They have used 15 or 20 different numbers from as many area codes. First off, you need to realize that this in NOT a real phone number that they are calling from, the numbers are probably spoofed. Taking this into account, reporting them to the FTC is a waste of time since the Do Not Call list ONLY applies to legitimate companies NOT scammers. IMHO the Do Not Call list only gives consumers a false sense of security.
sick and tired of getting these calls almost daily. try to talk to them and they hang up. try to call them and they hang up. i never gave them my phone number
For the kind of thieves that are running this scam, providing a bogus number for Caller ID is trivial. They are not at the number it shows. They are almost certainly not in this country. Regular tracing of their phone calls will not work because it is coming from some sort of internet phone system - think Skype for thieves.
Their entire "business" is a scam to get your personal information - including credit card numbers - so they can rob you blind. Such a "business" is not going to put you on a do-not-call list, and is not going to care about your complaints or threats.
I find it amusing that the "Call Type" I have to choose to post this message does not offer an appropriate choice such at "theft" or "scam".
