Robo call recorded 19 September 2013 from (360) 861-6939
Caller ID: Process CC Dep

This was a really slick call. The caller kept repeating "is that ok?" after asking me questions and I thought it was a scammer who wanted to record me saying "yes" so they could alter the recording of the call and make it appear that I agreed with them for whatever they're trying to pass off on me, but after a while, I realized I was talking to a robot! The robot is queued to advance in the call based on the respondent saying key words, as directed by the robot's questions.

I tried to keep silent until I was afraid they'd disconnect, then I'd say 'hello?' to hold them in the conversation.

I was trying to play with "Robert Green", thinking he was a real person, but finally they disconnected the call.

Here is a transcript of our "conversation":

<me> Hello?
<they> This is Robert from customer care service. How are you today?

<me> Just fine.
<they> The reason for the call is that we're offering relief for unsecured debt. Would you be interested in some financial assistance?

<me> Uh, what sort of unsecured debt?
<they> To be clear, when we say 'unsecured debt', we mean credit card payments, personal loans, and collection accounts. Let me ask you a couple of questions. Is that ok?

<me> Uh, how did you get my number?
<they> Well, I don't, I'm not in charge of the marketing, I don't know where we get the information from. What I do know is that we can save you a tremendous amount of money on your credit card debt. How much debt do you have now?

<me> Oh, loads, don't even ask.
<they> Do you have $8,000 or more in credit card debt?

<me> Ah, easily, yes.
<they> Hey, it looks like you qualify. Well, hold on a minute while I get a consultant on the line, ok? Is that ok? <pause> Are you there?

<me> Hello? I'm here.
<they> Is that ok? Great, I'm gonna transer you to a specialist, you're gonna be on a brief hold, so don't hang up. Is that ok?

<me> Hello? Hello?
<they> Yeah. Yes. Are you there?

<me> Hello? Hello?
<they> Yes. He'll be with us shortly. Is that ok?

<me> What did you say your name was?
<they> Robert Green. <pause> We need this information to continue. Is that ok?

<me> Robert Green?
<they> Yes. Is your credit card debt $8,000 or more?

<me> Uh, easily.
<they> Ok, that wasn't clear. Can you, can you say that again?

<me> Yeah, I'm seeing some very interesting things about you on the Internet. Looking up your phone number.
<they> Do you have $8,000 or more in credit card debt?

<me> Oh, easily.

<they disconnected the call here>

John,
Thanks so much for the info. Hope you don't mind if I share the link to your page with the recordings. Maybe we need to give the spammers the numbers for everyone on Capitol Hill!  If they had a clue how much crap they've caused their "constituents" by having no forethought (allowing CID spoofing) they might stop the political posturing and do something right for a change.  Not holding my breath of course.

Did you sign up for any new internet service, buy a new house, or change any other services?
I simply (was forced) to upgrade from AT&T copper wire to fiber optic and that's when I started getting 10 phone calls and e-mails daily. AT&T claims they value privacy and don't give your info out---[***] i say

They called 5:25 this afternoon and didn't leave a message on our voice mail. CID said "NOT IN USE." Okie-dokie.

Also had CID saying "Not In Use."

demanded to talk to owner of company, when asked what he needed, he said he needed to talk to the owner and rudely hung up!  LOL

I read your page of recorded calls. Enjoyed the one where you gave them hold music. Would like to know how. I have a GoogleVoice account. ronaldskugler@dayrep.com

Hi Ronald,

I have the free X-Lite software telephone from Counterpath Corporation configured with a free US telephone number from IPKall (to act as my Google Voice forwarding phone) and a free SIP telephone account from Ekiga.net (that feeds calls to the IPKall phone number).

I make sure to answer my scam calls using the X-Lite "softphone" on my computer because the X-Lite softphone has the HOLD button with that music. I believe the IPKall phone number with X-Lite also supports Call Waiting so I can take advantage of Google Voice inbound "conference calls on the fly". I usually use Google "Hangouts" for conference calls as it is far more flexible and does outgoing conference calls.

Thanks for your question, and good luck.
