Yes, the message starts with "Debit card processing rates were just cut 50%..."  None of the card processing calls name a company, just click to hear more or click to get off the list.

Call came in over my cell number at 1:12pm Wednesday March 6, 2013, I did not answer, but the name came across as Ken Luna, for whatever that means. I will now report it to Do Not call registry.

Same thing - these idiots keep calling, and I am running out of ways to say f*ck off. I like Aspen's idea of "riding" them. Need to go buy an air horn!

This numer keeps calling the jewelry store i work at. It's very annoying to answer a phone that's a telemarketer when I could be assisting a customer.

Same as what everyone else is saying.
Called 4:15pm central time 1/22/13

Their company name (according to the robomessage) is Affordable Payment Systems. When you dial *69 and call the number back, you get the same male voice delivering the same pitch. No way to talk to anyone.

These idiots called our business this afternoon at 1410 hrs with their boring, inane robo-message about the government reducing credit card processing rates.  (The minute some robo-message starts making claims about the government, you can be pretty sure it's a scam.)  Press 1 to get our rates lowered or 9 to opt out of these calls.  Yeah, right!  As if THAT works!  I just held onto the phone and it disconnected pretty quickly by itself.  I didn't quite catch the very beginning of the message but I'm pretty darn sure they did not identify the "company", which is a violation of FCC requirements for robo-messages and is most certainly a giant red flag.  Anyone who does business with a cold-calling robo-dialing, robo-message-using person who doesn't identify themselves deserves to be fleeced.

lol   LOVE this !

Not a sound! Just air........

I have a couple of ways to deal with these parasites. First, I let the phone ring three full times before I pick up. I pick up and don't say anything for 2-3 seconds. If it is a computer autodialer, 80-90% of the time the computer will hang up thinking it has gotten a voice mail or answering machine. After 2-3 seconds, I say our company name, but don't give out my name. That way they don't automatically have a name if they call back and get someone else. If I still get a person and they insist, I tell them my name is "Richard Smith"(it's not). It is none of their business what my real name is, they are telescammers who are breaking the law. If they persist in calling over and over again, I tell them that my boss is available, and then I use a sports air horn right next to the phone. What are they going to do, sue me? "Your Honor, I was illegally telescamming and they deafened me!" Good luck with THAT argument. The judge might give me a medal. Reporting these "people"(I use that term loosely) to the Do Not Call Registry is futile, they are usually spoofing their phone number anyway. If you have the time, have some fun with them. See how long they will stay on hold or still be on the line if you put the phone down. Take your cordless into the bathroom and have an extended "deposit" at the Porcelain Bank, complete with very loud fake sound effects. Tell them you ARE the boss and listen to their sales pitch, never saying yes to anything, but always saying that you will look at your numbers and see what you can do. Some scammers will record any affirmative answer you give and then splice it into a call and bill you for whatever they are selling, using that as evidence of an order. Waste as much of their time as you can, because that keeps them from scamming other people, and it can be a really fun stress reliever! Anything that we can do to make this less profitable for these ticks on the butt of humanity is a plus. Feel free to pass this on or add to it with your fun ways of taking back your phone lines. If these idiots would get a real job, the world would be a better place for all of us.

Was a recorded message: "The federal government has dropped processing rates for debit cards....." I hung up at that point.

Robo call for credit card processing

has called about 4 times in one day, each time leaving a robo voicemail trying to sell us something. damn annoying.
