This 317-401-8338 has been calling my cell and home phone for the last four months. No messages or voice come on the line. Do like I did -- NEVER answer it.
This is a new scam the Telemarketers are using. You are supposed to be curious enough to call them back. If you do call them the Do Not Call list does not apply since it was you that made the call. They will try to sell you something and since you have made contact then they can call all they like.i texts them and said, YOU ARE A ASSHOLE,?. USER COSMO CRAMER
This number WAS owned by Flutter Studios, a professional commercial photography studio in Seattle, from September 2013 until January 2014. The phone was cancelled by Flutter Studios due to poor service by the telecom provider. Flutter Studios no longer owns this number. Phone number: 206-258-8338 is now managed by INTERNATIONAL TELCOM, LTD. - W.
800-888-9616 is a spoofed number* for a scam - they want you to log on to a webstie that contains a virus that attempts to steal your ID and banking informaion. (I got such a call and instead of going to the website, I called Verizon customer service directly - I am no longer a Verizon customer so knew something was bogus - - and they told me what was going on.) *Spoofed calls. For ten cents a call, you can spoof almost any number except a hospital or First Responder. The FCC says these are "harmless prank calls" and refuses to do anything about it. The purveyors of this spoofing service are apparently "above the law" and claim no responsibility for the actions of their "clients" - at one time I received a spoofed call where the number being spoofed was actualy a very large telemarketing firm in my city. I called them and asked about the calls and they essentially repeated what the FCC said - only until some moron spoofs a congessman's phone number will they continue to get away with it. Once some congress critter becomes the victim you can bet the FCC will change policy and go after these scum bags.
If you're using a smart phone, just install a call blocking app for for your device and set it to accept only calls from your contact list and your local area code. On my Android phone, I use an app called Call Control and it has solved the problem. Kind of a brute force approach, but until the CRTC and the Telcos do something about spoofed Caller ID's, it's the only way I found of retaining my sanity.
It was really weird.. Went to my answering machine and some automated message said something like "you have a call waiting for you" and it started ringing and ringing and some woman picked up saying "hello? Hello?" And she stayed on the line and wouldn't hang up.. I had to go and turn off my answering machine.... It was strange.
They called me and left a voice mail for me to call them back with a special code of #635. There was no name listed on the phone, just the incoming phone number. I'm on the DNC, so how do they keep getting my number?
Consumer lifestyles harry-foreign accent, asking for assistance with a survey, said that I had used my details online recently. Then quoted an address that I lived at briefly 10 years ago. I told him that that wasn't recent information and asked to be removed from their list. He hung up before I finished my sentence.
Hi, I'm from the PH. I received calls from this number several times already. They told me that they're helping me to process my application for Canadian visa which coincidently, I'm really applying for such. Please advise if this is a scam or what.
This no. Called me & claim to be working under government programme. And its company is called australia gsm. They asked me whether i have credit card or not. When i said yes, they insist that in order to know whether i eligible to work in australia i need to make a payment of $835 australia dollar. Later, asked for the first 6 digit of my credit card. Two people talked to me. First person claim that her name is kelly johnson. I realize it was a scam after they persistently asked that i go through with the process immediately. After 30 minute, i hang up.
There is a handsome technician in communication (the one who installs your new telephone line at home). He is ~6 foot tall. He is a rapist and a serial killer. His mother is French Canadian and his father is Greek. If you receive calls without any speaking (or with a false accent from India), be careful, you are his next victim. The day, he will ring at your door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR. Do not use your phone; you will not have the line because he might disconnect it. Use your cell.
maman-lise momlise3@hotmail.com
P.S. Those calls have nothing to do with your credit or telemarketing. He stands in communications room, connects his phone and uses the line 438-800-0456 or others lines in Montreal, one in Toronto or one in Florida.
I received a phonecall from this number on my mobile phone this evening - Number showed as New York. It was a female on the phone and she asked for me by name - I did not confirm name but asked who was calling 3 times and she then hung up. It sounded like a call centre in the background. I have blocked this number.
They keep calling my cell number... I am assuming some joker pulled my number out of their head and wrote it down instead of their own so they wouldn't get the harassing calls.
Nuissance call. I went through the survey and finally spoke to someone. But the new tactic is that the person on the other end doesn't deviate from their script. If you ask them a question or try to interrupt them they will just repeat themselves. They won't let you ask to be taken off the calling list.
If you call back the number they give an option to be removed from the list. We will see if that works. If not, complain to the feds.
Just had 20 min of calling, every 30s, so that basically I couldn't use my phone. On auto-repeat. Congrats, you've won, etc. Brutal. Called Telus, claimed they couldn't do anything about it. In the modern era of the internet, this is bullshit.
From all these comments, I see it's about lowering credit card interest rates or some crap like that. I never answer a call from a number I don't recognize anyways. They can call till they are blue in the face for all I care! What I find hilarious if this call was about credit card interest rates, I don't even have a credit card nor am I interested in getting one so how can you lower something that doesn't exist?!?!?!? So good luck trying to reach me to "lower my rate", hahaha! Keep on callin ya'll, I'll keep not answering :) Talk to the voice mail fools!
