844-211-1396

Received a call, didn't answer. No message was left

received a call, they were asking me if I planned to transfer colleges in the next 3-6 months

Get $10,000.00 to go back to school scam. You fill out contact info to enter the drawing but then have to sign up for a school to contact you. When you call 844-211-1396 back, it only rings once then nothing. No one picks up.

They asked if I planned on going back to school in 1-3 or 4-6 months. I did get a name, and when you call back you get a continuos waiting song. Do not call 844-211-1396

This number keeos calling. No message left.

I have also recieved 3-4 phone calls from this number, however when leaving a message.......there is nothing "dead air." What is going on with our society that people have to stoop to that level to make a buck.

it asked my name and then hung up... super confused

It called me and said Hello. Then I have like 3 missed calls.. The recent call was like 30 minute ago...

Constant calls from this number.  How do I get them to stop?

like an idiot I received an email from a mom site that I use about entering a drawing for a scholarship, so I entered my contact info and now they keep calling!

Want to stop repeated telescam phone calls?
Try these alternatives:

1.  Do not answer the phone if you see an unknown number on your Caller ID ... let it go to answering machine or voicemail.  Many telescammers hang up after three or four rings.

2.  If you have a smartphone, get one of the inexpensive or free phone blocker apps at your online app store, and learn how to use it.

3.  If your cell is not "smart", read the manual to learn how to set up a "group".  Assign the scammer's phone number to that group.  Also assign a "silent ring" to that group.  You will not hear future calls from that number.

3a.  Alternately, assign a "silent ringtone" as the DEFAULT ringtone.  Then, assign your favorite ringtones to friends, family, contacts, businesses, etc.  That way, you will not hear your phone ring, even if the scammer changes numbers!

4.  For cell phones or landlines: Contact your phone service provider.  They may have a facility or method to allow you to block numbers.

5.  If you buy things online, you might want to google "phone blocker" to see what devices or apps Amazon or other sites have to offer for landlines or smartphones.

6.  DO NOT call unknown numbers back without checking who called (800notes is your friend)! All that does is verify your number is "live".  Instead, read this:

I just received a ca from this number about 2 minutes ago. I said hello and it took the man a long time to answer me. Then he asked if he could speak with (my name) and I said "this is her". He asked if I was currently enrolled in college and I hung up. 😡😡 I hate scams!

Keep getting calls did not give consent for these people to call.

They have called me twice today... The first time they said "hello is this Kayde Coleman" The fact that they said my name was creepy  the guy sounded so weird and it kinda freaked me out so I hung up. They called back a second time later and i answered and they never said anything then just hung up.

I signed up to get a 10,000 scholarship for moms entered my alternate phone number ,and they've been calling my cell 2-3 times a day. No one answers just dead air.

Call received. Did not answer. No message left

I keep getting calls from 8542122396. I can hear someone breathing on the line and they hang up. Is this fraud. I learned from my job not yet call this number back. However looking it up it is for complaints. Is this correct?

Just like many on here, I clicked on and started signing up for, what seemed to be at the time, a legitimate $10,000 dollar back to school scholarship through Phoenix University. It wasn't until after I gave them the general information page and clicked next that I realized that it wasn't. Now 24 hours later, I'm getting calls from this number. Hoping it stops soon and will be looking into blockers to prevent anymore spam calls from this number.

I just got this call a few minutes ago I just blocked them after they called twice.

Alright I'm hearing all the scam and extra buck crap. But what are they taking away from the individual? I didn't give up any info other than basic contact stuff. Nothing to personnal, no bank account info or social info. What are we losing?
