925-738-0274

Does anyone knows who is using this number?

left no message...

I called the number back...it says it is Washington Mutual Card services. It is for registering a new credit card (you know the little sticker you peel off of your credit card and call the number on before you can use the credit card). I recently activated a new credit card with them...perhaps they got my phone number that way. I also got a phone call from 925-738-0256..same thing.

this number is constantly on my caller id, i have an unlisted telephone number, i have also re-registered my number on the do not call list. this number calls on sunday evevings, saturday afternoons, and weekday evenings, these calls started about a week ago, a message is never left.  how do i get these calls to stop

These pains in the a..... call early, late, weekdays, weekends. It is impossible. Even when I have answered the phone there is never anyone on the other end.

I got my first call about 8 this morning. They have called at least 15 times a day since Friday. Always (925) 738-XXXX where the last 4 digits are always different. Supposedly it is an 'offshore' (Singapore, India, or somewhere) phone that is routed through something to make it look like it is coming from California. I've checked online. It's a scam to get your credit card number.

They say they are with Washington Mutual Bank. People in the discussion group online say they have called Washington Mutual and they say that they do not know what that phone number is and that there is no problem with their account.

Today, instead of ignoring it, I decided to answer and play along.

Well, this guy (most of the time it's been a woman) said that my account is past due $675 and they will need a minimum payment of $450. Now remember, this is some guy that can barely speaky de EenGlish, and he tells me my account is going to be closed and that they need a credit card and social security number to 'settle the matter'. This is kind of the way it went (and there were about 5 people in my office so I put it on the speaker):


(Oh, and BTW, I use my 'mentally challenged' voice. Think of the guy from the movie 'Something About Mary' when he would ask 'HAVE SEEN MY BASEBALL??!!!')


'JELLO??!!'

'I am calling about your past due account at Washington Mutual.'

'JELLO??!!!'

'Your account is $675 past due. We need a minimum payment of $450.'

'JELLO??!!!'

'Yes I am calling about you past due account at...'

'PASS DOO??'

'Yes.'

'PASS DOO?'

'Yes.'

'OH, NO!......WHAT I DO SO NO PASS DOO?'

'Excuse me?'

'WHAT I DO SO NO PASS DOO??!!'

'You need to pay at least the minimum and we will need..'

'JELLO!!!!'

'Yes. Can you hear me?'

'JELLO!'

'Hello?'

'PASS DOO....O.K.......I PAY!'

'How much are going to pay to settle this matter?'

'I NOT WEARING ANY PANTS!!'

'Excuse me?'

'O.K. I PAY!'

'O.K. How much are you going to pay?'

'UH DOLLAH!'

'Excuse me?'

'UH DOLLAH!'

'Dollar? How many dollars?'

'UH DOLLAH!'

'How many dollars?'

'UH DOLLAH!'

'How many dollars are you going to pay?'

'UH DOLLAH!'


I swear this went on for 2 or 3 minutes. Then he started asking if I could hear him and I just started the 'JELLO??!!!' thing again. He got frustrated and hung up.

O.K., I am easily amused...........I'll go back to work now...

Did anyone happen to call a date line they sell your numbers to soliciters. Put your number in the ftc no call list google it
