Called 10-31-2012 @ 10:07, didn't have the opportunity to wast their time.
| SPOKANNER 2012-11-01 21:41:48 Unknown |
Came home to find this number on my caller ID. They didn't have the courtesy to leave a message.
| Fred 2012-10-31 23:31:19 Unknown |
It's fruitless to be asked to be taken off their call list.
The Do Not Call registry is similarly useless.
Their numbers are probably spoofed.
FIGHT BACK AND SAVE THE REST OF US MORE CALLS: WASTE THEIR TIME!
Have the following responses ready for "Credit Card Services":
Print it, clip it, and post a copy next to each phone. (You'll use it several times a week!)
This is the order of questions in their dialogue:
My current credit card debt: $16,750
My current interest rate: 14.5%
They ask if you are paid up, with current payments; tell them: YES
Give your Name: Gregory Fowler (He's Special Agent in Charge, F.B.I., Portland, OR)
(If they query your name/number, tell them you just got this "new" number).
If we get cut off, tell them "Call me back on my office phone": 503-224-4181 (Portland, OR F.B.I. office)
My billing ZIP code: 97201
(If they ask for your address, give your "office": 1500 SW 1st Ave, Suite 400, Portland, OR 97201))
Credit Card #: 4627 0519 4328 7147 (completely fictitious but satisfies the numerical check algorithm)
Exp. Date: July 2014
Soc. Sec last four digits: 0852 (made up, of course)
Bank issuing the card: "MBNA"
"800" number on back of the card: (Give one of these...)
800-225-5324 (National FBI Toll-free)
877-382-4357 (Federal Trade Commission-Telemarketing Fraud)
800-747-9069 (Executive Playmates)
865-256-2223 (California Girls)
800-691-8170 (New Jersey Asian Escort Service)
When they say, "Stay on the line while we check with your bank", hang up.
They'll call back within a minute or so. Don't answer! They know they've been jerked around.
This will help mess up their daily call quota, slow their pestering someone else, and #i$$ them off.
Have fun with the jerks!

You seem to have a hangup. Tell us what Romney ever did to you that was so dastardly. You might be a creep, you know.
| B. Perrett 2012-10-31 22:24:49 Telemarketer |
I have been getting harrassing phone calls from this direct marketing credit card company for well over a year. It is the same company, but they change the numbers from time to time to cover their identity. I have reported them to the FTC, FCC, BBB, & as of late, the law enforcement agencies in my state. The calls have gone well past harrassment. If someone knows of their origin / address / physical location, pass it back to me, & I'll make sure the proper law enforcement agencies get it & put an end to this criminal activity.

unwanted call
| NVGal52 2012-10-31 20:33:13 Unknown |
Thanks to my new Panasonic phone system I was able to block the number so next time they try to call they'll get a busy signal. I don't have to pay any fees either for call blocking. I think the call was in bad taste since now the nation is focused on the Hurricane Sandy aftermath. Obama is trying his best to get things in order that he can't focus on the re-election. He's focusing on the needs not the wants. Both parties are blocked on my phones. Favoritism is not in this home.
| TX Gal 2012-10-31 20:16:04 Political Call |
Recorded political call for Romney, hung up on the recording didnt care to listen to the message. Received 3 calls in less than 20mins.
| ex89158 2012-10-31 20:09:31 Unknown |
Why so full of hate Pat?
| kj 2012-10-31 20:00:05 Unknown |
Just got the phone call, but they didn't say anything until two hellos.
| non-political user 2012-10-31 19:29:26 Political Call |
they called a cell phone
Automated "give money to mitt romney robo call - they need a generous donation and in exchange, they'll send a free...
catamaran?
motor home?
Who tickets?
no... a free bumper sticker.
I was so overwhelmed, I just hung up instead of pressing "1".
that's okay - no doubt they'll call back
| Dakota 2012-10-31 19:28:04 Unknown |
This is another (probably spoofed) number being used by scammers pretending to seek political oriented contributions. But, they will just pocket whatever they scam you out of.
| Southaustinative 2012-10-31 19:13:47 Unknown |
I answered and it was a recorded message in Spanish. That's insulting! I don't live in Mexico, or any other Spanish speaking country for that matter. Speak English!
| Dakota 2012-10-31 19:12:19 Unknown |
These calls are much more likely scam than political. The Romney campaign (or Obama or whoever they claim to be seeking contributions for) will likely never see a dime of whatever these crooks collect.
| Kno It All 2012-10-31 18:50:11 Political Call |
The "703" calls (that don't allow a call-back by you) are made by a computer and are often recorded political appeals for votes and money. The customer purchases temporary use of the number which may be owned by someone else. This hour today it may be Candidate X, tomorrow afternoon it may be someone else. Beware also of similar one-way calls from area codes 202 and 207.

To be RICH you need to be SMART and it seems that you are an idiot.
| Vashti 2012-10-31 18:28:56 Unknown |
Just got a call from this number. No ID, no message. Just aggravation.
| WA phone 2012-10-31 17:59:38 Political Call |
This was a recorded message asking for donations to Mitt Romney... trying to raise $50 Million to get out conservative voters in the aftermath of Sandy. I'm a solid Dem donor, so they must be doing random calls.
| Kate 2012-10-31 17:58:17 Unknown |
I just got a call from them - don't know anyone in VA so didn't answer. Yesterday I received a text message and I don't know how the politicos got my number!! I blocked them.
Can't wait till this election is over, most annoying one yet!
| Capt Kirk 2012-10-31 17:49:36 Unknown |
ROMNEY I voted for ya, you dont have to call me 15 FF'ing times today...
| Jack 2012-10-31 17:44:17 Political Call |
I got a call this morning from this number asking for donation by pressing 1 on the phone. I was a Mitt Romney campaign raising company. These people need to stop calling and asking for donation just like that. It's annoying. I call the number back and it's disconnected. How can a disconnected phone be in service like that?
| Abby 2012-10-31 17:19:59 Political Call |
Another political message, looking for money and playing on sympathies b/c of Hurricane Sandy. They're all DB's, whether they have a D or R after their name. Sadly, this country is going to hell.
| Birn 2012-10-31 17:06:13 Political Call |
Romney campaign call
| Barack O 2012-10-31 17:00:34 Political Call |
I just got a call from this number and somehow they talked me into donating to the Romney Campaign...
