Called cell phone...the number has joined a multitude of blocked numbers - where's the friggin' NSA when you need them??!!

I certainly agree with your way to deal with this problem. We all same phone number keep getting calls. Person or company selling this phone numbers  to this scammers have some kind of guidelines that who can be the victim. May be they are targeting people over age of 50 and not on social media site with good credit history. May be EX Discover Card holder and Discover Card providing this information to hares us. After talking to all of them trash still calls are not stoped for same purpose. Nomorobo did good job on my landline. If call pass through on landline I report to Nomorobo to block that number. Telling other person that they are Low Life is fun for me, All of us should answer them and any way they like shall make fun of them. DO NOT iGNORE TO ANSWER.

THE BAD NEWS: Card Services calls aren't going to stop anytime soon.

THE GOOD NEWS: You can retaliate, reduce the misery, and even have some fun.

RETALIATE:

Waste these turkeys' time. Keep them on the line by acting like an interested prospect. Give them bogus data, including a combination of two different credit card numbers, scrambled Social Security digits, and a modified ZIP Code. Important: provide a credit card company's real 800 number.

After they call the credit card company, you can give them the same credit card info as before with two of the numbers transposed, thus causing them to make a second verification call. Or you can respond, "Guess what ... H-O-O-N-N-K-K [from a $6 air horn] you've been PRANKED! Call back tomorrow for more bullshot." Now they're the butt of your joke.

REDUCE THE MISERY:

Landlines. Enroll for the free service at nomorobo.com. Simultaneous ringing, a free feature many providers offer, enables nomorobo to receive, answer and, after one ring, automatically hang up on nuisance telephone numbers.

Cell phones. Block the number, an option that becomes available on the iPhone if you click on the "i" on the right in the list of recent calls and scroll to the bottom. Unfortunately, Card Services will keep calling from new spoofed numbers, which eventually should motivate you to retaliate.

HAVE FUN:

Turning the tables on the perpetrators with mischievous deception and the news they've been duped provides instantaneous vigilante satisfaction. Plus you serve your fellow call recipients by slowing down this evil operation's efforts to defraud them.

Called 5 times in a matter of one hour.

As usual . I answer and dial 1. Message start with certain options which are useless as we all know. Now start with message you are currently caller number 16 and hold was over in 2 minutes. This time woman comes on line and ask me did I press one to lower rate on my credit card? My answer to her was question. How much would you charge to have SEX with you? HUNG UP. This the way I believe all of us should talk to them. Woman working for scammer may stop doing this job. They are so stupid that they are calling on Saturday when this kind of services do  not call in weekend,holidays or after hours. All of us are aware of this scam and only way to reduce this calls are talking trash to them .
