866-491-7121

Calls twice a day before noon, hangs up.Very annoying, leaves no messages.

Since 7/14 I have received 10 calls from tihs 866-491-7121. I have never picked up but when I tried to call back some strange song was on and when the song ended someonee picked up, did not say anything and hung up. It it driving me crazy!

I rented a car in California

I get a call from this number at least three times a day. Same thing the phone rings and then it just hangs up. Pretty f**king annoying. If I find anything on this number, trust me i'll post it up here.

Call me everyday. explained to them not to call 3-4 times. Still call. If I call back it puts me on hold or says not bussiness hours.

I get called every morning, most of the time earlier than I want to, as early as 6:20 am. I would unplug my phone, but my husband will be in
Iraq soon, and that is not an option. He is risking his life for a free country while others freely try to scam and annoy others as there does not seem to be a way to stop these people. The root of the problem is doing business on the internet. That is when I started getting the calls, after making reservations for a car and hotel through expedia. Does anyone know what we can do????????

Got a call this morning from this number. They hung up when I answered. Tried calling them back and got a fast busy signal.

DON'T BUY OR ORDER ANYTHING FROM A TV COMMERCIAL!!!
My mistake was ordering Kevin Trudeau's "FREE" books. I've been receiving harassing, annoying, hang up calls ever since!
I thought they had stopped about a month ago. I traced the number back to a company in Florida, found a live number to the VP, called and just layed into her! I stopped receiving phone calls until just recently - they're back! Now I have to go through the same thing again.

The Company is Platinum Rewards, phone number 866.491.7121
13553 66th Street, Suite 101
Largo, FL 33771

They also are using the number 1-866-452-1137. Their agents are also "currently busy" when you attempt to call back

*Telemarketers Using Costco's Name to Entice You To Buy*
by Veronica Dearden — last modified 2007-06-17 05:09 AM — expired
When a telemarketer calls you up and mentions Costco, that gets your attention. But in this case, Costco says watch out.

This tip comes from Rachel Randall of Shelton who says she got a call from a Suntasia Marketing. The caller told her she's get $100 in free gas and $400 in airfare if she would try out some products from Costco.

Rachel says what really freaked her out is the caller already had her bank account information - both her account number and the routing number of her bank.

Coscto Vice President of Membership Paul Latham wants you to know that Costco is not not involved in any telemarketing promotion.

"We aren't doing any kind of promotion with a telemarketer," Latham said. "We do not allow our membership base to go to anyone."

Suntasia Marketing's web site says it's a full service marketing company. But telemarketing seems to be the primary focus. Suntasia Marketing is actually part of another company called FTN Promotions, based in Saint Petersburg Florida.

FTN stands for Florida Travel Network and according the Better Business Bureau, Florida Travel Network operates under more than half a dozen names, including, Suntasia Marketing, Florida Travel Network, Confirmation Center, Sea Escape, Platinum Plus Travel, Classic Enterprise and Majestic Promotions.

It's travel promoter, but that's about all I could get when I called Suntasia to find out how they got Rachel's account information.

The customer service rep told me Rachel must have done business with one of Suntasia's affiliates.

A young woman who identified herself as "Miss Reed" told me the company offers different promotions and calls customers who've done business with their affiliates. She declined to say who those affiliates area.

Rachel says she was told the company buys or shares lists with other companies but no one would tell her the names of the companies that might have shared her information.

I tried to get a supervisor or owner, but was told there was no one else I could talk to.

From talking with the Florida State Attorney General however, it would appear Rachel is not alone in her concerns.

FTN Promotions, Inc. is the subject of an active investigation by Florida State, based on dozens of complaints about unfair and deceptive practices and unauthorized debiting of consumer bank and credit accounts.

Further background investigation turned up government action in multiple states dating back to 1997, including settlements in 2000 with the states of Florida, Arizona, Arkansas, Connecticut, Washington,DC, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

The settlements involved misleading and deceptive practices in the sale of vacation packages. At that time, Florida Travel Network agreed to modify its marketing but did not admit any wrongdoing.

I made several attempts to call both Suntasia and FTN Promotions, but either got no answer or the lines were disconnected.

If you get an unsolicited call from Suntasia or any company you've never dealt with who already has your account numbers or other private information, get as much information from the caller as you can and report it to the Washington State Attorney General's office.

Then, notify your bank and let them know your account has been compromised.

I rented a car last week and got three calls from this number on Thursday.

They wouldn't take NO for an answer and once i said "ok" they signed me up for some program gave me a telephone # to call and hung up.

I called the number they gave me and it was just a number to one of the programs that they were selling. after talking to that lady i learned that this number is part of a huge scam that basically tries to sell ppl memberships by enticing people with fake rewards. Once you get your "package" you're able to cancel any of the memberships or free trials they have within the 10 day or 14 day trial period w/o any charge but will hit you with an 80 dollar "membership" fee that you didn't agree to or hear about at all.

I canceled my c/c and changed numbers but they didn't have the right last 4 digits of my credit card anyway. . .

they did know my cell phone number, my birthday and my billing address. but did not ask for my social security or anything else (which i obviously did not give out.)

this company is called

The Company is Platinum Rewards, phone number 866.491.7121
13553 66th Street, Suite 101
Largo, FL 33771

DO NOT agree to any of their fake scams.
they will tell you they are calling from your VISA rewards but if you contact your bank or credit card company you will find out none of these Reward programs actually exist.

from northwest pa:  have received several calls over the last few days at different times...i've called the number twice and have gotten "all circuits are busy" and "our offices are currently closed, please call back during our regular hours"...haven't rented a car in at least a year...have purchased plane tickets though

I've gotten calls too.  All hours of the day and night on my cell.  (last four of numbers are 7121 & 7312)  Same song and dance as everyone else, hang ups; when I call back same messages.  I never get a person.  This has been going on for about a month.  Did register with the DNC list.  Keeping my fingers crossed.

The Company is Platinum Rewards, phone number 866.491.7121

I'm not sure of the company, but they call me at least once a week, saying that they are from the rewards department, then say they're calling about my credit card and then read off the last four numbers. They are trying to get you to sign up for a monthly "rewards" program that costs about $20 a month. I have told them I am not interested and asked them repeatedly to remove my name from their list, but they just hang up on me.

One guy that called got really impatient with me when I asked how he got my credit card number. He said that I gave it to him! And when I asked what company he was with he said "just hang up the phone now, you're wasting my time." I'm wasting HIS time?  He's the one calling my cell phone!

The [***] call hang up. Then if u call the back it plays music. WTF is the problem.
