Boiler room telemarketer. Caller identified herself as being with the Children's Wish Foundation, and was soliciting donations. I am sure they call for other "charities."
just recieved a call from this number telling me that I was going to be served with papers in the next 24-48 hours, they gave me a # to call back, said good luck, then hung up. So I called the number they gave me, and I think the same voice answered, I said hi, I am a little confused, he said ok, well, Hi confused, my name is michael brandon and I am going to do a reverse phone look up, then said your # is not associated with any of our cases have a great day confused and hung up again???????????
I've been getting calls from this number. I answered today because my son has been up do some shady stuff lately and I was concerned it would be in reference to him. They asked for me by name, told me my date of birth, asking me to verify that I was in fact the person they were looking for. I asked who he was, can't remember now his name and the company he was with I could never understand what he was saying. I refused to verify any of my information. I told him that I have recently been a victim of identity theft so I was not comfortable with the call. He said then I probably needed to hear what he had to say. I still refused to verify my info so he said he had to end the call.
I am expecting that it does have something to do with these payday loan scams. Unfortunately I'm learning more about this than I ever wanted to know.
Just suggesting, if you don't know, you may need to find out.
They call every freaking day! So aggravating! Act like they know the boss personally. Will NEVER leave a message or will they speak to anyone else. Don't answer!!!!
