We are on a do not call list. I got a call from "anonymous" at this number and want to be taken off their robo-dial.
Thanks
| lfrev 2012-12-07 16:16:31 Unknown |
this number keeps calling my cell phone. no message, no one there. very irritating.
| T 2012-12-05 22:23:08 Unknown |
just got another one and finally added the # under contacts and called it "Spam." I will now silence my ringer for this # like an earlier poster, Rusty Nail, suggested.

Now that you've practiced your no-call request here, deliver it to the actual caller, which does not maintain this site or this web page.
WCA is the acronym for Worldwide Commerce Associates. If you are getting their calls, there is a fair chance that YOU INVITED them, even if unwittingly. I wrote about this scourge in January here:

Please stop calling me!

Same, no-one on

Unwanted calls from this number.

Get calls every day, sometimes twice, no message.
| nannerjo 2012-11-20 21:11:59 Unknown |
Wow, you have done your homework. I for one appreciate it. Thanks
| T 2012-11-20 15:39:06 Unknown |
this # calls me every single day on my cell. I have never answered and never will; thought maybe they would stop trying one of these days
| Cyndi 2012-11-09 15:15:14 Unknown |
If you have Sprint I know you can just add them to a list of blocked numbers. This is the simplest way to get it to stop since being on the Do Not Call Registry isn't working.
| Ohsolow 2012-10-26 22:08:20 Unknown |
Thanks for the heads up.
| Buddy Holly 2012-10-26 20:03:25 Unknown |
Seems like I've been getting more calls since I registered for the Do Not Call list.
| clinky 2012-10-26 07:00:56 Telemarketer |
Started getting these calls in the mornings and after work. They don't say who they are and never leave a message.
I called it back, and the answering machine said> Welcome to WCA... if you would like to know more about our services..etc..
I guess its a telemarketing call to sell you stuff you don't want or need.
| TIM 2012-10-23 20:45:25 Unknown |
me too....wth??!
| Jehu 2012-10-23 17:23:59 Unknown |
received multiple calls w/ no one on the other end speaking
| Stephen 2012-10-19 16:12:00 Unknown |
It is Spam. Insurance agencies spamming #'s in the N. Chicagoland area.
| Jill 2012-10-19 15:56:21 Unknown |
Just received a call on my cell phone from 847 457 2169 (recording) that indicated that they were WCA calling about affordable healthcare. Hung up because I don't need affordable healthcare.

The criminals behind this operation do not come to this site and even if they did they would have no intention of removing someone that posts here.
I use this site to pass on information that I have gathered and hopefully it will give some insight into these criminal operations. I'm just a poor ignorant uneducated country boy from backwoods Wisconsin who has received more than 300 calls from these scum sucking criminals.
Just a note that WCA Subscriber Services is a different scam than the "Lower your credit card interest rate" scams. However they do share the same phone numbers, so who knows if there is some hidden connection.
They claim that you can go to their website and be removed from their calling lists: wcaconsent
Good luck with that. The bad news is there are thousands of complaints about this company not stopping the calls not to mention the unresolved complaints from the BBB that can't find a legitimate address for the company. All that can be found is a UPS drop box (The UPS Store #4567 - 2643 Gulf Bay Blvd Suite 1560-411, Clearwater, FL 33759) or a virtual office in Las Vegas (Worldwide Commerce Associates, LLC 3651 Lindell Road, Suite D Las Vegas, NV 89103) with a receptionist answering the phone for multiple non-existent companies.

You are dealing with a company that is owned by a woman in India and registered in Cyprus. If you request to be removed from their calling list and the calls persist then you should continually file complaints with your Attorney Generals office and also file with:

If enough people keep complaining then maybe something will get done. The only option is to go after the companies that are outsourcing to overseas boiler rooms.
JACKSON ? The Mississippi Public Service Commission has fined a Nevada company $20,000 for violations of the Mississippi ?No-Call? law and rules associated with enforcing the law.
Public Service Commissioner Brandon Presley announced the fine. Presley says the fine was against Worldwide Commerce Associates, LLC of Carson City, Nev.
Presley says Worldwide Commerce Associates violated the law by failing to register and purchase the state?s ?No-Call? list. The company also allegedly called people on the list and used an automated dialing system to communicate with consumers.
The company shall be prohibited from making any calls as a telephone solicitor in Mississippi until the fine is paid in full.
Write your Congressmen and Senators. We need CRIMINAL penalties against the companies that are profiting from these calls. Follow the money, slap them in prison, no one left to outsource to overseas boiler rooms, problem solved.

Call almost impossible to stop. Calls all the time on my cell. Take number and put into your contact list then silence ringer for this number. Doesn't stop the call but makes it easier to ignore. At your convenience you can delete the missed calls.

This message is from a paid shill hired by these crooks to trick victims into going to their scammer website. Don't do it. Help shut them down instead.

Changing your phone number is a complete waste of money. I tell people that your new number is someone's old number. Unless it was some sweet little old lady that had it for 80 years, your new number is trouble. Might be quiet for a few days, then the calls start again.
| Sharon 2012-10-05 19:33:48 Unknown |
I AM FURIOUS WITH THESE PHONE CALLS 3-4 TIMES PER DAY FOR THE PAST 3 MONTHS!!!!! AND CHANGING YOUR PHONE NUMBER HAS NO EFFECT -- CAN'T SOMEONE PLEASE INVENT SOMETHING WE CAN PUT ON OUR CELL PHONES THAT WE CAN ACTIVATE TO ENSURE THESE "PEOPLE" DON'T WANT TO CALL OUR NUMBERS (SOMETHING THAT HURTS THEIR EARS REALLY BAD)!!!!
| Cher 2012-10-02 02:20:17 Unknown |
Sorry, I meant to write, "847-457-2169"; the same number as others in this post.
| Cher 2012-10-02 02:18:40 Unknown |
I have received 6 phone calls from 847-2169 in the past month. Of course, no messages are left. Getting tired of seeing this number on my phone!
| Helen 2012-09-25 22:13:04 Unknown |
What a annony, call my cell phone many times.
| Martha 2012-09-14 20:58:06 Unknown |
I get calls from this number too - I never answer a call from a number I don't recognize. Now I know to never answer this one too. Thanks for all the info - it helps a lot.

All that can be found is a UPS drop box that is being used to launder the money out of this country.
