Credit card scammers claiming to be able to lower my interest rates.  I called him a worthless piece of shît and hung up on him.

This number is calling me. It is a scammer. Please make them stop. I have nothing to steal.

called twice; first time only rang two or three times, then stopped.  I never answered.  obviously another scam call

I too have had this kind of enjoyment.....a few months back I kept a scammer open on the line for almost 2 hours.....I actually took him into the police station with me....and handed him off to the dispatcher...I had to give him credit, he was Patient with me as I pretended to follow all of his instructions while he was scamming me....had him on hold for 10 to 15 minutes twice   (GRIN)

they need to stop all robo call.. or make a way we can sue them

what business did they say they are from?

yep.. I didn't answer either. looked up there number here, I'm sure happy I did! ...someone needs a job and a life. :/

don't answer my cell calls with numbers I don't recognize, just look them up here.

never stop calling  no one on the phone

Got a call from (906) 469-3254
Houghton, MI.
When I asked to be removed from their database, the guy told me to go f#%k myself.
Do yourself a favor, block this number on your phones.
I am reporting them to the FCC and the BBB and the call center for the FBI. Can't be a legitimate business of any sorts with language like that.

I get cathartic value wasting telemarketers time while commuting.  I talked a woman for 22 minutes this morning.  We had a very nice cordial conversation until she caught on to my attempt to delay her from scamming more people.  She then released her inner-ghetto fury using an extended vocabulary.  I rarely have the opportunity to engage in conversation with the uneducated...it is truly entertaining.

Received 17 calls from 8:50 to 8:52 AM this morning. All of them were blocked and the phone didn't ring once... had to actually check the logs to see what calls had been blocked.

[Details]
I run an application for my iphone that allows you to send a busy signal to inbound calls you wish to block. There is an option to just drop the calls, but a busy signal gets some interesting results with the automated caller these companies use. Seems to tie up their lines as the auto dialer tries repeat attempts to reach their target. Keeping the lines busy is where it is at.

The same application will allow you to wild card area codes. Example area code block like 202 .. would block all numbers 202-111-1111 , 202-111-1112, ect ect. I don't care about blocking states where I dont get calls from.

I know that people who run these operations read these forums. Just know I'm resigned to the fact I may have to add all the area codes and create a white list. I'm ok with that. Calling me repeatedly is going to give you a net yield of zero.

Report a phone call from 906-469-3254..report to who, have done this for the last 10 numbers and they now have moved to a 406...906..It does NO good to report.  I just don't answer if I don't know the number

This was great !  These bottom feeders SUCK !!!

Female rep, put me on hold for long time after I provided the initial (fake) number. Amazingly I even had another call from these jerks while I was on the line with them. The call also terminated, and she immediately called back, on a different spoofed number. From there she was on to me, and said I should provide her the "real" account number, not a "fake" number. I asked "You don't want me to give you a fake number?", to which she replied "Of course not, a55hole!".

S*C*A*M*M*E*R*S! You know the drill,string them along,give them B-S info,waste their time,have fun!

buy a whistle & blow it in there ear

4th call today from 4 different numbers all to my cell phone...
I hate these guys... did not answer.  Googled number, found it here...
and added this note...

And will mark and save number in contacts...
zDO NOT ANSWER 4324324324

I tell them they have contacted a private emergency consultation service, that a message to disconnect the call and time limit was already given.  There is a $10,000 base charge for the call and ask for THEIR credit card information or it will be billed to thier number.  Have yet to recieve a repeat call.

Yep - Call and did not answer.  Googled number, saw 800notes.com... and knew it was a scam!

Another one for my contacts on cell phone.  zDO NOT ANSWER 432432

THE BAD NEWS: Card Services calls aren't going to stop anytime soon.

THE GOOD NEWS: You can retaliate, reduce the misery, and even have some fun.

RETALIATE:

Waste these turkeys' time. Keep them on the line by acting like an interested prospect. Give them bogus data, including a combination of two different credit card numbers, scrambled Social Security digits, and a modified ZIP Code. Important: provide a credit card company's real 800 number.

After they call the credit card company, you can give them the same credit card info as before with two of the numbers transposed, thus causing them to make a second verification call. Or you can respond, "Guess what ... H-O-O-N-N-K-K [from a $6 air horn] you've been PRANKED! Call back tomorrow for more bullshot." Now they're the butt of your joke.

REDUCE THE MISERY:

Landlines. Enroll for the free service at nomorobo.com. Simultaneous ringing, a free feature many providers offer, enables nomorobo to receive, answer and, after one ring, automatically hang up on nuisance telephone numbers.

Cell phones. Block the number, an option that becomes available on the iPhone if you click on the "i" on the right in the list of recent calls and scroll to the bottom. Unfortunately, Card Services will keep calling from new spoofed numbers, which eventually should motivate you to retaliate.

HAVE FUN:

Turning the tables on the perpetrators with mischievous deception and the news they've been duped provides instantaneous vigilante satisfaction. Plus you serve your fellow call recipients by slowing down this evil operation's efforts to defraud them.

The card service scammers   WILL   "service" our credit cards,   BUT,   when they finish "servicing" them, they will have no available credit remaining!

The callers are the drug-addicted "card services" scammers, who call us, pretending to be associated with our credit card companies, in an attempt to fool us into giving them our credit card numbers, so they can rip us off. People that have given their card numbers to these junkies have suffered severe financial losses. Beware of these lowlifes, and warn others, before they are cheated!

Lower interest rate scam. DNC list will not work. Might as well have fun. After pressing #1 use the following fake info

After you give "her" a fake VISA card number 4627-0519-4328-7147
Fake bank "Bank of Wichita"
Fake Credit Limit $15,000
Fake balance "$5,500"
Fake interest rate "19.5%"
Fake expiration "07/14"
Fake "800" number for bank: "1-800-225-5324" (NATIONAL FBI TOLL-FREE LINE)

"She" tells you to hang-on while she verifies your balance.

Of course you hang up while she calls the FBI !!!   :)

If she's really Pi$$ed, you'll get a couple of calls back in short succession which you don't answer.

I had a fun scam call last week you might like. It was a spoofed number with a solar company offering gov't rebates to home owners. I gave them all the fakes and the address for my old apartment. We set an appointment and they were to call a ½ hour before. They called 2 days before - no message. They call again the day before - no message. I waited until 11:30 P.M. to call him back and confirm. The next morning I forgot my phone in the car, but he called 7 times. Finally he left a message saying he was standing in front of my apartment.
I almost felt sad for him...almost.

automated call from consumer  collation regarding credit refi.

Same story here.  Likely credit card scam...card services.

called left no message....so instant blocking

3 quick one ring consecutive calls.  I work nights and I am on-call this week so the call phone must be kept on.  Now I am awake and i should be sleeping.  Idiot telemarketers!
