Hahaha....Get several calls from this number. Never and I mean never do they answer when I answer. Redial the number in split second and the recording comes on saying this number is no longer in service. What...Really? You have already called the phone company to have your phone disconnected in less than 5 second after you scamming pos called me? hahahaha Beware of the s*** bag scammers out there.

please don.t, I have heard of people being prosecuted for using a hand air horn, and doing hearing damage.

Calls from 888-777-5544 for two days, no one says anything, then today they spoke. Foreign speaking, verifing my name, address and cell phone number to which I had to answer "confirmed". They gave the last 3 digits of a credit card that I don't have, and said I am being sent a gift card from walmart and verified a local walmart address. Then proceeded to say I have two more gifts, magizines, and a cruise. I said I was not interested and hung up, but I did veriify my information so I hope and pray nothing comes of it. Stupid me for not just hanging up at the begining.

Got a call from this number won't answer it obviously but I wonder how these companies get cell numbers when I just got my phone 2 days ago and haven't even told my family the new number... Hmmmmm

Maybe they randomly just dial any number and discount the inactive ones.

tya i just recieved that call, they are getting slick, i already knew about the number before hand so i kinda played along with it until i could get some valued info, dialed 1, "kyle" as he called himself picked up and explained how my cell phone distributor had contacted the company which he never named conviently and they were investigating a fraud account set up, wanted my personal information, including name, adress, even my sin number, than said to verify claims and repaort back to bell they would need more secure information to process the online check, so they needed my online id and password, as well as my bank account info.

Crazy a**holes.  How stupid do they think I am?! They continually call like there is an emergency or their dog is dying and my phone keeps interupting in class since I have my phone for emergencies I can't simply turn it off.  They attempted to call me for my expiring car warranty! I don't have a car.  Next they keep calling from 1-888-111-1110.  Incesantly! I am reporting this fraud and illegal collection of information and ID theft to the police.  I suggest everyone who gets these callers to get as much info as possible and call the police.  They are possibly also able to trace the origin of the calls if enough people report this.  Do your part, let's screw these B**tards to the moon.  I'd like to see what they would feel if they got scammed also ... Stupid people in society... The should get what they deserve.

Ive gotten this call twice on my phone home, three times on my cell..and I also got this messege when I was at work...

which is odd about the work one cause I work at a video rental place, and when it came through I pressed one to tell the person basicly to fawk off, when I told them what they were calling, they hung up me...in the words of stephanie tanner "HOW RUDE!!!"

when he called the house line ...I think his name was either craig or kyle...I told him I do not have a credit card..blah blah..and he said that if I ever get the call again to press the numer 3 and my number will be removed.

111-1111 - so I pressed 1 to speak to someone.  The guy said he was from MCS Accounts - very defensive.  Said his corporate office was based out of Tacoma, WA.  For sure it's a fraud.

they are trying to get credit card numbers, then hang up if you dont hit # key

they just call me but i miss the call and when i call back they said the call can not be complete... that a fraud for sure

they just called my cell. don't know how they got the number. its supposed to be not listed anywhere.

THIS IS SCAM.

Didn't recognize the number therefore didn't answer.

Just received a call. Didn't answer. I just listened to my wonderful ring tone instead

Just called me again, did not even bother to pick it up, just disconnected and of course, they did not leave a message.

Also called me....both on my cell phone and house phone several times....
I have never signed up for a DNC list or given my number out on a website or such....very frustrating

I have heard in the news that these guys actually make money as soon as the call is connected....something about billing your minutes?

These guys are terrible.  They keep calling my cell phone or and over.

I got this call 4 times today on my cell, i picked up on the 2nd time just to check, it was automated messsage saying I overpaid intrest on my credit card.  This is unrelated to DNC list I never signed it with my cell.  ive been hit with 1 888-111-1111 and 1 888-111-1110.

The 1-888-111-1111 (or others like this one) is extreme fraud at the highest level. They go by names like Kyle, Lisa or Craig and never give you a company name. They want your personal information (especially your social insurance number). The best thing to do is ignore these calls. There have been times when victim  have pick up and pressed numbers as the record message states, and received very large phone bills.

These scammers use these numbers in the United States, Canada, Mexico and numerous other countries. Best get use to them until the Federal Governments stop them. If we all ignore them then hopefully they will stop (or fall and break their own necks so they cannot dial a phone anymore).

Keep calling land and cell phone numbers. Do not press any numbers. If you answer and hear a recording hang up. You could end up with very costly long distance charges from Nigerian or some other country.

Sometime the number is for credit services, other times is is to use you phone number for long distance charges or to steal you credit card number(s) or other personal information.

If you decide to answer and press the number they ask you to press, ask them what you full name is (including middle name) or what address are you calling. They will hang up as it is a scam (not much different that the computer scams. Remember, protect you personal information at all costs.

NEVER GIVE THEM ANY OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION (AND THEY DO ASK MANY CALLERS):

1. Your name (they do not have it until you tell them it)
2. Your address
3. Your other phone numbers
4. Your Bank name or Credit Card names
5. You bank account or other related information
5. You Social Insurance Number (or any numbers)
6. Your employer
7. Or any persona information.

Believe it or not, Many people from around the World give this information hourly. Do not be fooled. If you think this is a call from your credit card number or bank, then ask them for a number for you to call them back on. If the area code is not the same as your bank or credit card location, then ignore their initial call.

Also, phone the bank you deal with directly and tell them about your call.

On the back of your credit cards there is a phone number to contact about your credit card information. Tell the person who is suppose to be from your bank that you will call the number on the back of your card for security reasons.

they call me at least 3 times a day and even leave voice mail msgs. i just dont understand how hard is it for service providers to find out abt this fraud/scam call and stop it.

and yeah, once u press whatever they say on the msg they leave, they can bill ur minutes and use them for long distance...

These guys calling me every day 3-4 times on my cell and if I do not answer they are leaving automated message for 2-3 min every time. I do not know how to block these guys.

I got the 1 888-111-1110 call on my Bell mobile number.  Automated Recording. A warning that this is the last warning...error has been made on my credit card interest and I've been paying too much. I think they identified themselves as "something" accounts, but don't recall. It was probably the MCS Accounts that was mentioned by others.

Anyway, at that point, I hung up.

I got two calls from them.  First call, I selected the option to "stop calling me.".  Second call, I accepted that I had a credit problem.  I told the person to remove me and she promptly hung up the phone.  I'd like the third call to be my own and let them know that this is uncool.  Anyone know how maybe we can talk to someone who heads this scam?

got through to them, Whitestar financial in based in Boca Raton, Fl but calling from Hollywood, Florida. They said they were card services. Happened in March so out of business by now, probably

My caller ID (on my Verizon phone) showed up as 1111. The automated message said my bank account had been the victim of some kind of fraud...but the bank they mentioned wasn't even my bank! I hung up.

Some credit card company automated message. Apperently this is their third attempt to reach me. They did not say what credit card though so Im thinking it's a fraud.

yeah, they just called me, but I did not pick up as the number seems pretty phoney.

Ya, I got the same message, interest rates could be saved but no company name.

This should be illegal, harrasment for sure !

This number has called me 3 times now and I never answered it and now a number 1 888 111 1110 is calling
