Also have gotten several calls from this company to reduce my interest rate on my "outstanding and overdue" credit cards. Since I do not carry a balance - I ask for the supervisor - and get a hang up. If I try to get the next level of individual by being "interested" and ask then for a supervisor - they get rude, and hang up.

Got a call from them today. I asked what company they were with.  All i got was Card Services. Asked them to put me on their do not call list.  He hung up on me.

I keep getting all sorts of weird #s including this one on my cell phone which I hardly use or give out the #. I'm thinking ever since I signed up for coupons online and filled out a form or 2 this starting happening. Not sure but the timing seems about right, wish I'd never done that! How do you ever get them to stop?

Hi people, I too have been getting harassed. I am trying to organize a way to stop these unscrupulous people from calling our "do not call" registered phones day and night. It costs us money, time, and energy at a time that we as a nation have little or none of to spare. We have to raise awareness of what's going on and stop them.

1) The reason that these people can call you while you're on the DO NOT CALL registry is straight forward.  These people harassing you aren't in America and aren't subject to any do not call regulations!  Well if they aren't in America, how are they calling with domestic phone numbers you ask?  Major USA telecom companies have reseller businesses where they resell VoiP phone services to consumers all over the world and they use virtual phone numbers that have american phone number exchanges.

Why then are these American Telecom companies providing these foreign people with phone services to harass American consumers and use the services for illicit activities?  The truth is they're not, in fact most of the major American Telecom companies aren't even aware of who is using the services and what they're being used for as they're reselling them to different foreign vendors who then sell the service to foreign consumers.

So the question then becomes, what are my options and what can I do to prevent this?  The best thing to do is contact your STATE Attorney's Office with the phone number harassing you.  Be very specific about what these illicit individuals are doing with these phone numbers and what information they are trying to obtain from you.  What will your local STATE's Attorney's Office do about it?  They will subpoena the carrier who actually provisioned these telephone numbers from the national pool.  If these numbers are operated by another carrier, the carrier who owns the number will contact their reseller and will hopefully comply with terminating the number or potentially face legal action from the STATE.

Contacting the FCC won't do anything, trust me.  Contact your local STATE's Attorney's Office and complain, complain, complain but be very specific about who called you, what they wanted and exact timestamps of calls.  The more information the better.

2) Answering the phone, calling them back and pressing "1" to be removed only confirms that they have a real person on the phone. I believe they have "war dialed" to find your number and if you've answered or called back, they now know they have a real phone number and it only makes you get targeted for more calls, I've managed to get a second phone on their list via calling back from another line.

3) Here is a growing list of the numbers they have used (spoofed), note that this list is from places that have a very light  population density and therefore lots of free and unused or available numbers, places like North Dakota, New Mexico and Iowa among many others. When I get another call from an unfamiliar number, I google that number and usually it is here on this web site. I then now that I got called by another scam/telemarketer scum bag.

954-378-1455 (their new number as of this morning)

As they add new numbers, I'll update this list.

5) The companies that purchase this illegal service include a credit reduction scam ("Card Services" who try to get you to give a credit card number, a home security system provider. I have also been called by folks telling me that I've won a prize and can I give them a credit card number to pay for taxes. Recently the National Diabetic Association, fishing for more identity and Medicare related information. As I we hear of other companies, I'll update this list.

Actions we can take:

1) To help on my phone, I've created a trash contact which has a silent ring tone and each time they change their spoofed number to a new one, I add them to this contact so at least I can continue my meetings and meals without interruption once I have their new spoofed Caller ID number. It helps, a little.

2) Find the link to your STATE Attorney General's office, bookmark it. You'll be using it frequently to report these calls. Take note of as much detail as possible, pretend to be a fool and not on to them to gather as much information as possible to give to the STATE AG office, include the number and exact time and date and any other information. I'd waste their money by trying to see how long I can keep them on the phone, I talk *very* slowly to give them the impression that I am a potential victim. Once they realize that you're not a legitimate target, they'll hang up, usually I never get a call from the same number after this treatment of their call. There are others who've been called who report that by screaming, whistling, or making other loud noises into the phone, gives them some kind of satisfaction, but your miles may vary. If you're interested have a loud whistle handy, some measure of satisfaction can be garnered from knowing that their ears will ring for the rest of the day. To do this, they have to (usually), wear a headset, if you speak softly to them so they raise the volume, you'll get better results.

2a) I recently dropped an email to the Utah State Attourney General's Office and this is their reply: Thank you for writing to the Utah Attorney General’s Office.  The Attorney General’s Office is counsel to the state agencies and has no jurisdiction over cold calls. They are usually scams and or they are trying to get your personal information. They are relentless in calling.   This particular scam is massive and has been for approximately three weeks. Any further communication with the caller will not get you anywhere.

Telemarketer’s are regulated by the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) if you are on the do not call list, you may file a complaint with them however, some telemarketers are exempt from that law.  If you have caller ID do not answer the call or just hang up.  

Callers can computerize phones so that they are not active even if they have a return number showing on the caller id.  Recorded calls are not traceable.  Ugh. Useless Governmental Drones. Thanks Mark Shurtleff, we'll remember you at election time.

3) Register your phone at donotcall.gov. After that you should file a complaint each and every time they call. I have never had anything happen as a result of this, but I did feel a little better by doing it. Senator Hatch's office most recent letter indicated they have serious funding issues, (no surprise here) and do very little, but at least you have  the information filed.

5) I recently complained to both of my senators and my representative, I have gotten a letter from the FCC noting my complaint, giving me a case number and a phone number to call to complain, that number is: 888-225-5322
Call that number and complain when you get one of these unwanted calls and you're on the "do no call" list. The telemarketer has to try to sell you something. So when they call press 1 to get to a live person then let them go through their whole sales pitch before telling them you're on the do not call list.

Then when they hang up on you, call the FCC and file your complaint. Ultimately, we can find the companies that enable this behavior and get the feds to help curtail it by bringing them to justice for using illegal telemarketers. There are now several cases of successful prosecution of companies that enable this behavior.

Together we can stop these illegal people from calling night and day, and moving to new numbers. The businesses that purchase this company's product, their telemarketing services without regard to the do not call list. They've messed with the wrong nest of people, the hornet's nest.

Thank you everybody who has helped to contribute to this document.

You can google the number and get this location, and the google the call centers at that address in that city and get the information for reporting use

Somebody with a little bit of time on their hands should help us all out and investigate who this company is.  You could probably start by calling CentryLink the new owner of QWEST. Then report here.  These callers are real irritating.

i have do not call list on my cell phone.
and i keep getting calls i dont know.

i answered the call the second time..i made nasty noises and acted like i was from a 1-900 number..and till this day they have not calle me back.

Got a call moments ago on my cell.  When I picked up, a recorded message told me that the caller was my credit card services, and this was my 2nd & final call.  

First of all, my cell phone is not the phone number of record for this account.  

Then, I pressed 1 to get connected.  "Mike" answered and began his schpiel.  When I asked what credit card he was calling about, he said all cards.  I then asked to be removed from the calling list but before I could finish he had hung up.

When I called back, the fast, 2-tone busy tone I got was not like any I'd heard before.

I think this was a real, fraudulent & criminal scam.

They are criminals calling from India trying to get your credit card/personal info.  They buy US phone numbers from the internet-it is a sad state of affairs but I found 5 websites just today where I can buy phony phone numbers.  The US Gov't will do nothing about this so we are on our own (unfortunately).  Best advice, don't answer, but if you must answer the phone, say "Mike's Roadhouse" or "Family Dental Associates", etc....  It sounds stupid but it works.  If you try to argue with these mongrels they will continue to call you-remember, they are criminals trying to steal your money they don't care about your threats or demands.  Also, you can just start singing every time they call and that will probably stop them as well.

Received call from this number, when I inquired for the name of the company, the caller turned abusive, swore at me, and threatened to visit me. I'm filing a report with the authorities.

Received a call from this number too and the only thing on my voice mail is dead air.

got several calls (automated about my "credit card account" on my cell phone and finally connected with them to tell them to take me off the list very flirty and down right rude individual who continually called me babe said he would take me off the list but then continued was I sure I wanted to do that and when i said yes he said why??  I asked to speak to a supervisor and he refused to transfer me ... continued with why you want to get me in trouble babe ... why you wanna be that way ... then eventually hung up I don't know what company this is and when I called the number back it doesn't even ring .. BEWARE scam for sure

Same looser jacka$$ as always. Just block him. I feel sorry for someone who can't do any better in life than that.

They are a scam company claiming to be credit card services. These doesn't appear to be any way to block them.  I'm reporting them to the proper authorities.

This caller called my cell phone, will this ever stop. We get them on are cell and are land line at all hours, I have put us on the do-not-call- list so many times I can't count them anymore. We paid do money on are bills you would think we could have some privacy.
Thank You,

this number has called multiple times, and I have filed a complaint on the National Do Not Call Registry every time. I still continue to get calls from this number.

The recorded message said this is my second and final chance at lowering my credit card interest.  When I selected 1 to speak with someone to ask to not be called again, all I got was a busy signal.  I tried to redail the number and received a strange busy signal that sounded like a French Police Siren.

I keep receiving calls from this number they do not leave a message but when you try to dial them back you get a siren type sound, not a busy signal

I keep receiving calls from this number they do not leave a message but when you try to dial them back you get a siren type sound, not a busy signal, how do you get this number to stop calling my cell phone
