Called my house for the first time today (twice). I seriously doubt this is AT&T as the caller ID says ATT plus the odd phone number. Every call I get from AT&T, the number is 800/288-2020. I hope they call me when I am actually home sometime. Just another scammer trying to dupe unsuspecting people.
For about the past two weeks every day we get a call from some one claiming to be AT&T to make sure we have the best possible service available.
Always starts with the question "so what do you like to do over the internet?"
First off the bat, I say I have no clue who I am talking to and we have the best service and I don't entertain strangers on the phone. If I need a different service or a better deal I call the number on my phone bill to get in touch with my service provider.
Oddly enough its always the same man and the calls come in random as late as 8:45pm but every single day at random times.
Finally yesterday I requested to be removed from the call list and was promised to not get more calls within a month.
The person is polite, never the less these types of calls are unwelcome especially with the frequency it might be considered as harassment as far as I am concerned.
When I search the phone number the carrier comes up as Alltel communications MI
but it is a wireless number and the look up is for a fee.
How is one to know who is really calling.
I am sending my phone carrier AT&T a copy of this note.
This is an odd marketing strategy in my opinion and just in case it's a bogus call it should be addressed by my Telephone carrier AT&T.
I started getting calls from this number a couple days ago. It's some guy with an accent claiming to be from AT&T. I just hung up and blocked the number. Just now I checked the call logs and saw where they've been calling back several more times. Thank goodness for call blocking!
