Got a call from this number this morning. There was a beep and it Took about 15 seconds for the actual message to play. Sounded like the phone was placed against an answering machine as the message wasn't loud and clear. Said they were calling from CedarScan Field or Shield (couldn't hear) services "on behalf of your financial institution" about having a vehicle inspection. Told to call back 800 556 2811 "promptly" to schedule. Sounds phishy to me. Showed up on caller ID as Free Call Toll 1 877 492 3773.

Yeah, it's DataScan...and they suck at their job!  Just sayin'.

I have been receiving harassing phone calls from datascan field services about a vehicle inspection.  I bought my lease out 3 years ago and have no further obligation with the leasing company.  I'm not sure why they are calling.  They left a message saying that they would continue to leave messages until I spoke with someone.  I phoned there today to tell them I do not have a lease and I wished for the phone calls to stop.  I did not give my name or number and the representative said they would take my number out of their system.  I asked if my number showed up with my phone call and she said yes.  Hopefully that is the end of it, or I will be reporting them.

Ok I have no vehicles leased and they called me twice already. They didnt leave a voice mail message so if they call back than I am reporting them.

Yes it was a legitimate call.  I believe the caller said her company's name was "Inspect a Ride". They were hired by a prospective buyer to inspect a car I was selling. It turns out I sold the car to another buyer before the inspection so "Inspect a Ride" never came to see the car.  Thus, I have no experience with the inspectors but the phone call was legitimate and the person was very professional.

Is is Datascan Field Service. They are trying to set an appointment for you vehicles end of lease inspection.

It's from Data Scan Field Svcs in Alpharetta, GA. You either A) have a leased vehicle that is coming up on the end of the lease and needs to be inspected by a 3rd party at the request of your leasing company (DataScan is trying to set the appt); B) have been given a relatively new phone # by your phone company that matches the phone # of a previous employee of DataScan  (do you have a 678 area code? or a 770 area code, maybe?); C) it's simply a wrong #

Someone called my cell phone from this number and asked for someone I had never heard of.  My cell phone number is on the government "do not call" list.  How is it I still get calls from people like this?

Called and left no message

Got a call from this number.  The company is Data Scan Field.  They are legit, if you don't have any leased vehicles that are getting returned then it may be a mistaken call to you but as far as I can tell they're not spammy on purpose.

I've verified that this is a car inspection company for cars coming off lease.

Received a phone call stating that my car needed to be inspected prior to it being returned.  This is the 5th car I've leased, never went through this process.  Not sure why you would want your car examined before it gets returned.  What if the car gets damaged between the inspection and the return?  I told the caller that I would work with the Dealer.  She very abruptly told me not to do that as this was a new program and the dealer may not be aware of the program.  DUH!  When would you launch a program and not tell anyone about it?  Time for a BBB call.

I work for data scan and we are calling to schedule the end of lease inspection on your lease. we usually call about a month before your lease turn in date. the number to call is 800-556-2811. to schedule the appt.

I received a call from them today.  They are a company that inspects cars that are coming off their leases.  I have a Volvo and the lease expires next month.  They want to set up an appointment to inspect the car.  I am turning the car in within the week so I told them to inspect the car at the dealership.

Got a call from this number (Datascan Field) saying they were contracted by my lease company to do the end of lease inspection on my car.

called twice will not leave a message, when I call back I'm connected to Datascan?

Got a hang up, more phone spam...

Received a call from 800-556-2811 - Caller ID listed as Private.  Recorded voice came on saying this was a reminder about our "inspection tomorrow.  If you have any questions call 800-556-2811."  Searched for that number on the web and came up with DataScan Field Services (http://www.dsfs.com/)  I have no idea what this is about or who they are.
