Suspected scam.

Caller ID indicated Chicago IL. Answering grabbed the call but caller hung up. I suspect this is an unwanted call as had a similar call earlier from Chicago with same results. Blocked and off to fantasy land they go.

Got a call, but didn't answer.  Didn't leave a message.

I have been getting recorded calls offering utility services several times per week.  I pressed "1" to speak with an agent to ask to be placed on their do not call list and when I did this, they started acting like they could not hear me and saying unrealted things.  They then started speaking in a foreign language. I repeatedly asked to be placed on their do not call list and they kept ignoring my requests until they just hung up.

Went to voice mail.  No message.  Called twice within one minute.

No message.  Said Chicago,, IL on caller id

Got a call, but didn't answer.  Didn't leave a message.

No message left, Chicago number with an original 312 area code.

Caller ID said Chicagozn01 Il- went to answering machine didn't leave a message. I never answer calls from numbers I don't know but really get tired of this number calling me.

No message  - caller ID shows as cChicago

No More Robo stopped this call too.

Called unlisted land line # @11:38 a.m. on 10/14. Did not answer it and since no message was left I subsequently blocked the call. I seem to remember a similar call before.

I called the number back it said I visited a website and now qualified for a $100 retail gift card. I pressed 1 to claim my gift and was transferred to a person who thanked me for calling the Reward Center. I hung up at that point.

Sounds like a recording ... said something about Com Ed ... I knew it couldn't be Com Ed ... called i.d. said Chicagozn01 ... so I just hung up.  This # has shown up in the past but I never picked it up.

Thanks, blocked the call

I didn't answer, but I called them back via caller ID.  An automated message stated that "You visited one of our affiliated websites and are entitled to a $100 gift card..." at which point I hung up and put them on auto reject.

Utility scammers

I answered this call. It was automated. Said it was Com Ed offering a discount if bills have been paid on time. Press 1 if I want to see if I am eligible for a discount. I normally ignore these types of calls.  For the heck of it I pressed 1 and the phone rang and rang without answer on their end.

"I called the number back"

Never call back.

If a caller is legitimate, they'll leave a number and a message and they won't keep calling.

If the caller is a scammer, then the number may be spoofed, so if you do reach someone, it may be an innocent party or it might be a non-working number.

If the caller is a scammer and you do get a real phone number, then all you are doing is confirming that they reached a valid number - and they'll sell your number to other scammers.

There is zero benefit to calling back.
