Bottom line: those calls are a classic telemarketing hustle that uses free‑gas promises to snag personal data. If you keep getting the number, start by blocking it on your phone and adding it to the national Do Not Call registry. Monitor your credit reports and alert your card issuer about any suspicious activity. When a caller asks for birth dates, last‑four digits, or email, hang up and report the incident to the FTC and your carrier. Never confirm personal details unless you’ve independently verified the company’s legitimacy. A quick note: keep a log of call times – it helps when filing complaints.
A similar conversation was had with the caller, and it became apparent that their sales pitch was deceptive
Following a call from this number, I returned the call and was offered gas vouchers, after which the caller agreed to remove my number from their list
After recieving a call, they claimed to offer free gas vouchers, but they needed to verify my adress and credit card number, which they already had, thats whats disturbing
This company contacted me, stating that I would be billed for their services, but I could cancel within 30 days, and they mentioned gas vouchers and coupons, which seemed suspicious, especially since I had previously been charged $30 a month by my credit card for a similar service, and the representative claimed their service was only $25, to which I replied that I didn't want anything to do with their company and asked them to remove my number
I had been recieving calls from this number for about a month, aproximatly 4 calls a day, I never answered, but one day I decidied to take a diferent approach, I answered and screamed as loud as I could before hanging up, I know it wasnt very polite, but after a month of recieving their calls, I felt it was necesary, and it seemes to have worked since I havent recived any calls in the last 3 days
I recieve 3-4 call from them everyday
Despite my best efforts, I continously recieved calls throughtout the day and into the evening, especaily on Oct. 15, 2008 @ 6:09pm, 8pm, 16th @ 9:30am, 11:03am, 6:58pm, 8:39pm, 17th @ 9:13am, 11:04am, 12:25pm, 7:31pm, 8:46pm, 18th @ 1:49pm, Oct. 20th @ 9:32am, and the last as I swnd this is October 20th @7:47 pm, verry anoying.
They were calling us 3 times a day for a week, my boyfriend finally answered and they were trying to give him a 40 dollar gas card, but he started asking questions and they got flusterd
After being contacted by this number and informed that they possessed my credit card information, I requested to speak with a manager, who then provided an address that I verified through the Better Business Bureau.
Like many others, I experienced the same situation - the woman on the phone wouldn't let me speak and continued to insist on sending a trial package despite my clear refusal.
Repeated calls are being made to my number every few days, with no messages left. The decision was made to block these calls.
They started calling me yesterday night, and have called 4 times sincxe then, i think it might be related to my recent purchase of the iron gym, it's really annoying that they are calling my cell phone.
Today, I recived two call's from them, they even rattled off my entire credit card number, I beleive they were sold my information by the people at the Iron Gym, I am tottaly disgusted, everyone should check their credit card statement's, they started off about some gas coupon's, thats when I cancelled, good luck to everyone.
Within a split second of answering, a woman picked up and her abrupt demeanor startled me, leaving me amused.
This phone number frequently calls me.
I called them back and they remuved my name from their call list, thats how you do it
The government's do-not-call list is a secure way to avoid unwanted calls, as it is a legitimate service
It appears this company is selling magazines, and the best course of action is to screen calls and avoid picking up to prevent potential scams
I gets at least three call's everyday from them, i never answe'r, they told me to get on a Do Not Call List but they ask'd for my E-mail adress and it seem'd fishy
I have a pretty good idea what this call was in reference to
they call alot of time everyday, and when you anser there a delay, its obvious its a autodialer, than they try to transfer my call, but its not my call, you guys called me
After a week of repeated calls from this number, I answered to find a pushy salesperson promoting a monthly trial program that required cancellation via phone call, and disturbingly, they had access to my credit card information
My personal info, including credit card details, was obtained by this marketing firm from a previous purchase, leading to unwanted solicitations
I recieve multiple calls from this number, but when i answer, ther is no one on the other end
I recieved multiple calls from this number, but they was looking for someone else, when I try to explain they have the wrong person, they just hang up on me
I have received multiple calls from this number, which is cause for concern.
My experience with these harassing calls from various 866 numbers began after I ordered a trial size of Acai Berry tablets, which were advertised by Oprah Winfrey; unfortunately, they sent the wrong product, and when I tried it, I experienced unpleasant side effects, including weight gain, constipation, and bloating.
I've been recieving calls from this number for a few day's now, like 10 times, it's really anoying
After talking with the operator, they transfered me to another operator who wanted to confirm my adress, it seemed extremly suspicious
Two calls were received from this number, and during the second call, the representative claimed to be from a marketing agency and offered a free gas card and discounts, but then requested personal information, including birth month and day, which raised suspicions and prompted the call to be terminated
