Since this was late at night I suspect foul play involved with this call. Some community leaders and people in this one horse decaying town filled with drug dealers are known for being vicious and vindictive.
Claims to be a man from Florida, but the dial tone is from the UK and reverse look-up is showing a location in California. It asks you to press "1" to connect if this is correct after the recorded message would read off the number in a British accent. It was very weird, I really don't know what to make of it.
Calls home and mobile numbers and never leaves a message. Research indicates that, if you do answer, you are told that you "won" a "free" cruise, and are then asked for credit card information.
Stated they were from the IRS, when the caller could not locate the subject they were calling for, stated they would contact the Sheriff. Pretty aggressive IRS!
This is a phone number I am being given to pay a bill. when I call it, it is constantly busy. I am trying to determine if legit or not. Not sure if actually a collection agency, trying to settle a debt.
number calls my residence several times a day. it is a recording about some type of pain pills. My answering machine records it so I can't push #1 and get someone to tell them to stop calling!!!!!!!!!!
Calls EVERY SINGLE DAY but from different prefixes.
805-283-7989, 805-283-7988, 805-283-7987. NEVER leaves a message. I keep blocking the number but they keep calling from different prefixes every single day still. If I ever find out who it is I'm gonna rip'em a new one!
Person calling claimed to be from the US Treasury Department and was calling to notify me of a grant of seven thousand dollars waiting for me. He insisted that he was from the US Treasury. I told him he was trying to scam me and he should be ashamed of himself and I hung up.
Calls all of the time and hangs up after one or two rings, talked to a lady after calling the # back, she asked for a person that does not live here, yet they still call daily!
Told me they were Microsoft and had detected a problem on my PC. Asked me to go to www.teamviewer.com When I asked for a telephone number to verify who they are they gave me this number: 323-316-2383. I contacted Microsoft who said they never contact end users in this manner.
Received a phone call(my caller ID read "1040")from a guy with a foreign accent who claimed to be from the "Dept of Federal Grants". He stated that I was selected to receive a no strings $9,000 grant, the only stipulation being it not being used for anything illegal(the irony). He asked me to confirm my name, how old I was and weather or not I was employed. He then gave me a number to call(the number Im reporting)where I was to confirm/be instructed on how to collect from someone else(dont remember if he said supervisor or something else). He also gave me a confirmation number. This is obviously a scam, I only played along to see how sophisticated/ridiculous the scam would be. If you get a strange call either from a (202)684....number or are told to call that number back it IS A SCAM. If you lookup this number on phonenumber(dot)com, theres a huge list of numbers reported as a scam from #'s beginning with (202)684.....
Yesterday, I tried to get a health care quote online. Immediately after submitting my information to the website (a phone number was required for the quote), I started receiving phone calls from this number. Today, I have received phone calls from this number every hour since 8:05am. Whoever is calling from this number has never left me a message to identify him/herself.
very weird ... claimed they represent Microsoft and that my license had expired ... what license? Offered 1,2,3 year and lifetime plans starting at $199 ... wouldn't tell me the name of his company
This is a scam with a man telling the caller they had been interested in furthering their education. When I told him I already have my degree, he hung up abruptly! This number seems to originate from Chilton, WI.
Am trying to find out if the person who requested on line information has given me the correct return number. His email was bogus so wanted to see if the number is as well before I call.
suspecting a telemarketer, I didn't say anything and after a short silence a recording came on that said SAI and gave a business phone number that was different than the calling number. It then said good-bye and disconnected. I now have the # blocked.
