some gay guy.

guy called today and told me I had made a request for a loan of 1500 dollars. I told him I didn't know what he was talking about   He insisted that I had made a request for a 1500 dollar loan. I told him to stop playing games and I wasn't interested  he hung up.   This guy had an accent from the middle east and was very difficult to understand

I have a cell phone provided to me because I am disabled and on extraordinarily limited income. It is a very limited service, but allows me a phone. The provider is Assurance Wireless, a division of Virgin Mobile. I use it for only a couple of local calls each week.

Today, 6/24/11, I was called many times by numbers with long distance area codes. Only one left a voicemail message, all the rest just disconnected. I answered the last call, and after they answered my "hello" with one of their own, they just hung up. The message left from the call before was a recording saying I had been pre-approved for an $800 loan, and to go to some website of a payday loan business. Sorry, but I was angry and deleted the voicemail and I didn't memorize the URL.

It seems to me that these sharks have gained access to the cell phone numbers of vulnerable people on limited income and they know dang well we are likely to jump at an offer like this. The low amount of $800 seems just as targeted and almost believable. I think either Assurance or Virgin has been hacked or they have sold these numbers to payday loan creeps.

Here are the Caller IDs of the calls so far:

752-314-9119
629-931-4911
820-654-8921
258-331-4917
422-274-7815
302-722-4674
268-331-4917
372-331-8598
267-350-9254

I apologize for posting one entry per number, but I want to warn others by getting each of these numbers in the 800notes database.

3 calls from these FOREIGNERS! I could hardly hear them told them I was reporting them to the POLICE and they hung up! I blocked them through Verizon!

They have been calling me all day twice a day for 3 days.  I don't know anyone in Estonia.  told them if they called again I was reporting to FTC

Got a call from this number - "approved for loan", got the same call from another number earlier in the day.

372 is a bogus US area code, It is the country code for Estonia. What ever you do, DO NOT give these people ANY information. Any outfit that disguises thier caller ID to a completely Bogus number HAS TO BE UP TO NO GOOD! I've gotten calls from this number several times already during all hours day and night. Person who called was barely understandable, BEWARE!

stop calling

he called here and said we were aproved for a loan once i said my mother was asleep he hung up i think he is an identaty theif
