I have been receiving calls from this & similar numbers for a few weeks now. No matter how quickly I answer, there is no body there. I try calling back & there is no answer.

This number called and didn't leave a message. I tried to call back but thre was just a busy tone. I am glad so many people have reported this as a scam. I have changed my automated greeting to be sure they cannot get my name from my voicemail.

this number keeps calling me...its clearly a scam as i dont have any outstanding credit balances or collections calls...how are they gettingmy number?

getting calls on my  cell please quit calling

I've had calls from 352-688-3684, 352-684-1406, 352-688-3694, 352-688-3662, 352-688-3498, and 325-688-3611...2 a day since 11/23/08-today

I had 2 calls today and I didn't answer them.  Are they calling on your cell phone or land line?  The last comment mentioned AT&T and I just switched to AT&T cell service 2 weeks ago...if they are only calling cells, makes me wonder if they aren't getting our numbers from them.

Why is this happening?  Isn't it kinda weird?

I dont know who this is.

none

missed their call- called back got an answer machine left my number and not another call since- they have better curtious then your banks/credit card.

I am receiving the same type of calls from this number.  I would love to find some way to put them out of business.  It sounds like they're trying to steal identities, but there's no proof yet.  has anyone been asked for their ss#?

I have been receiving calls from 3526883611. When someone finally answered, after previous hangups, the gentleman said he was from a publisher service and said that I have received a $1000 shopping spree and asked if I currently carried a visa or mastercard. I asked him who he was trying to contact and he just said whoever has the phone number (he repeated my number). I then asked what is the name of the person you are trying to contact and he couldn't answer the question. I told him I wasn't interested and to take my name of the call list and he got an attitude saying why wouldn't I be interested. Be very cautious about this.

NCP / Nature Coast Publishers' Service

I've been receiving calls from this number for at least a week, but when I call back, it sends me straight to a tone. This time, I answered and was told that because of my relationship with "the publishers," I was eligble for a $1000 online shopping gift certificate and 60 issue subscriptions to 5 national magazines (two of which, I alreay subscribe to, so they clearly weren't in league with the actual publishers). They told me that 3 were free, and 2 would be at a discounted fee of $3.83 a week, to be billed monthly. But their behavior and questions seemed very off. They were clearly in possession of my full name, my phone number, and my address.

The first person, Danielle, failed to adequately answer my questions, claiming she was new. She said she couldn't give me a company name better than NCP, although she started to say Nature Coast, and then corrected herself. She asked what I do for a living and my age, in order to help the publishers better target consumers. I was very skeptical, but she said there were no automatic payments and that some information would come in the mail. Then she told me her supervisor would call back to confirm some information. She said that the order had already been put through and that my order number was.... 1221.

When the gentleman, Nathan, called back momentarily, he repeated the profession and age I gave the first person and asked what the name of my company was and what year I had been born. When I told him that I wanted more information from them before I was willing to give him the information, he said "This is just for the records. I could care less. For all I care, you can make something up." When I continued to question him, he screamed "Ya' know what? We don't need your business," and hung up on me. This is clearly and evidently not normal.

i got the same call from the same number, hope they didnt do anything, is it bad that i answerd the phone? i hope not and is there anyway to block there calls or something there starting to get very anyoying.

I got a similar call ( from 352-684-1406) where they called my cell phone number and told me I had won a $1000 shopping spree. I could buy what I wanted but that I would need to chose five magazines and get charged $3.88 a week. But that they would for my convience charge me once a month. I told them I did not read any magazines and asked how they got my number. The women told me the publisher had provided my information. I told her I did not get any magazines. She then said she was new and that my credit card company may have provided the information because I was a good customer and paid my bills on time. Flattery seems to take people off the offensive. I told her no thanks so we hung up. She did say there would be a shipping charge for trh tiems I would buy. She never asked for my credit card info but they may have been something that could have come up later in the conversation. I had two more calls from that same area code (352-688-3611) but I could not answer. I called back and the line was busy.
I think this is a scam. I called AT&T and notified them. They told me to call the "Do Not call" number and the calls should stop.
They gave me a 800 number for do not call but it did not work. The web site to add you number to the do not call list is www.donotcall.gov.

STOP CALLING

Several calls over the past few weeks - yesterday a recording said something to the effect,"If you want to freeze your interest rate, better call this number back right away!"
Please, can't some local, state or federal agency cut these folks phone lines, before further damage is done?

I have worked for this company! The people on the phones calling you are innocent and dont have enough details to know they are scamming you, (actually, they arent they are offering this to you), The company doesnt tell us that the Shipping and Handeling fee is over well over $300. They also scam us, and designate closed and verified comissionable sales to whomever listens to theyre rediculous, big headed orders, they try to keep us in the blind and feed us bullsh-t, like mushrooms, they told one employee that they would be taken care of because they were indeed not conversating while inbetween calls, and indeed they did. they also suspended a few of there heavy-hitters, because they were to my knowledge, finding out too much. They are ripping off their employees as they are you. They have 2 closers for dayshift, Nathan, and Mark, The owners are named, Mark & Barbara Johnson. They also have a company called MRJ Construction or something like that, (tax Freud, I?m sure). That name will also appear on caller id. Nathan(cherry picker) is known for screaming at many of the people that he calls for credit card info, when they get skepticle. He is know to have used an agent (without her knowledge), her name is Elaina. He was heard yellin at a potential customer, ?Oh so your saying she(Elaina) is lying, so I should go fire her then, right? I should go out there right now and fire that mother of 3 children because your saying she didnt tell you about the fee, You want me to fire her because you wont pay the $49.50 (or whatever it is)?. Come on, how low is that. They pay these people the minimum to put up with their ongoing contradicting orders, with hopes of making commission, when in fact almost every employee probably does hit commission, but has no way of knowing unless they, (the SUPERvisors,) designate it on a board. I am very sure, 100% sure, that they dont even announce all the closed and verified sales, so that they do not have to pay more, just 1-3 employees a week, barely makes a commission to keep everyone hoping, I am posting scripts and rebuttals as well as the mag lists. I will also contact labor laws and the IRS, as well as the BBB. Their business resides in Spring Hill, FL. In a place called cass circle off of Spring Hill Drive. They are continuously threatening to fire everyone. So this will definately be their excuse for that. Please make calls to the Attorney General of this said place also to the chamber of commerce in Spring Hill, FL. Stay Tuned for more. You will not qualify if you are under 18, over 75, or have no incoming income whatsoever. PS yes your order number is 1221, Have a nice week. ****Please remember, that the people on the phone with you the first time are innocent and are also being scammed by the owners and closers***

My daughter received a call exactly the same as the post above except the caller identified himself as Paul and he told her it was a free subscription to 5 magazines and the $1000.00 online shopping card. being young she thought it sounded good beings that it was free. When the supervisor called back to confirm he told her it would cost $3.83 per month. When she heard that she told him she didn't want it and to take her name off the list.  He errupted and degraded her, saying that she wasn't paying attention to him because he had said that it would cost her. He then told her that he was going to send her account to collections. This all happened within 5 minutes! So, my question is, will they actually be able to charge her for it as she didn't give out her card number? Can they actually send it to collections even though she asked to have it cancelled? How do we go about reporting this?
