I'll tell you how to handle these freaks!  Next time, 'press "1" and get a real person then blow a whistle into your receiver as hard and loud as you can!

Don't believe what they say...they want information and when you ask for the phone number to return calls to they hang up

I get these calls constantly even though I am on the "no call" list.
Please help!

I have been receiving these calls.  I contacted ATT the carrier who leases this phone number.  I have also reached out to 2 regulatory agencies, as well as the local newspaper where this number resides.  In addition, I've reported this number to ATT's business fraud division.  I got another call from them today and they refused to tell me their address, the refused to give me to a manager, they refused to have someone in management return my call.  The phone rep said to me "doesn't matter who you've reported us to, we've done nothing illegal.  You've got too much time on your hands don't you"  direct quote.

Calls, leaves no message.  Caller id indicates 'private caller'

Keep calling me with "important credit card info".  Once when I connected to a "real person",
and asked to be removed from list, the "real" person hung up on me.  Doesn't sound like
anything will work (see previous responses.)

Let the answering machine pick it up...they left no message.

I answered, but it was silent.  Sounded like one of those automated calls.  I suspect this is that scam company Card Services.

Another call from Card Services.

I know they're frustrating sometimes, but you cannot hurt someone's ears / hearing - it's against the law. Also, they are employed, even if it's a miserable job sometimes, it must work or the company wouldn't be in business.

JUST SAY " NO " and hangup... No more frustration or argument.

Call is from California.  Their message is activated by your voice & is a recording. Subject:  My Credit Card.

I have recieved numerous messages from this number about credit cards.  I am not interested
and do not want any more credit cards.  Please stop calling me at all hours of the day.

I got several calls about my credit card...I just hung up....

I didn't recognize area code- picked up receiver and hung it right up
checked it on this website
i'm on do not call also

The national pandemic of telephone terrorism perpetrated by desperate criminal collection agencies is because they are trying to terrorize people who are naive enough to answer and submit to unsolicited telephone calls or written "collection" letters that have no legitimate legal debt associated with them or any of the companies, universities, or whomever else they claim to represent. Because most "little guys" were bankrupted by the criminal Wall St/Congress/Big Oil/Big Bankers/Big Business/Military/Robber Barons, so the desperate collection agencies are attempting to collect unpaid debts from innocent people by terrorizing them into submission.

Word of advice. NEVER answer any calls you don't recognize or are not expecting. Use selective call rejection service if available, or switch to an Internet-based telephone service which provides comprehensive call rejection options. If rogue calls become chronic, turn off all the ringers on all of your phones except one, and set its volume to the minimum setting. If you don't answer the call and the caller is legitimate, they will usually leave a voicemail after the first or second try. Rogue callers never leave voicemail messages because that could be used as evidence against them if it came to a lawsuit. If you receive a rogue letter in the mail warning you of some "collection" action against you, if you don't actually owe it, reply with a short letter stating that you don't owe it. Or if you do owe all or part of it, reply with something like "You claim I owe you a debt. Under §809 FDCPA, I request validation of this debt."

Only give them your name as THEY have written it to you (e.g. “John Doe” not “Jonathon Q. Doe” or however you normally sign your own name), address, and the account number they report. But if you do not owe the debt (zombie debt, aged debt, mistaken or stolen identity, forgery, etc.) state that you have never done any business with them or with the (alleged) original creditor of any kind and you expect the collection agency to close the matter, stop harassing you and take any bad credit marks they've caused off of your credit rating, and furthermore, that any further contact from them must be in writing on their official business correspondence letterhead. Send your letter to them a.s.a.p., always within thirty days, first class certified mail return receipt requested. If they refuse it and you get the letter back unopened, leave it unopened and save it in your files as evidence against them should they pursue legal action against you. If they did receive it and continue to pursue action against you, let them. The judge will throw it out of court. If the rogue collection agency sells your account to another rogue collection agency just tell them the claim has been proven invalid and offer to send them a copy of your letter to the previous rogue collection agency.

Warn all your friends about this rash of desperate collection agency terrorism, and how to combat it. Knowledge is power. The more you learn how to combat rogue collection agencies, back-taxes scammers, phishing scammers, "faith and family" scammers, political action committees and other low-life flimflammers, the more you will learn how easy it is to do.

Above all, keep a record of everything, of every rogue call w/ caller ID information displayed including time and date of each call. Maintain a complete file on any snail-mailed intimidation from rogue collection agencies, including copies of all correspondences and postal receipts. Reporting rogue calls on sites like 800notes.com, whocallsme.com, phoneowner.info is a great idea too, because many people find these sites by googling for the rogue number(s) after receiving calls from them.

I pressed '1' to give them a piece of my mind. When I asked what company he was calling from, he said "Card Services"' then he asked how much I owed on my current credit cards. I told him that if he were calling from a credit card company that I already used, he would already have that information.  He said "That's the beauty of it, we're NOT your existing credit card company, and we can consolidate all your other cards.".  I said "That's NOT the beauty of it, because I'm on the do-not-call list & don't accept cold calls, and I'm going to report you guys". (like that'll do any good...). This guy was at least polite, unlike some of the other agents calling from this or similar scam companies.

I finally picked up after several missed calls, and said "please remove my number from your list". He simply hung up on me.

This number call every 10 days.  Need to go after them!
