Getting constant calls from this number at all hours of the night

I've had numerous calls from this number today.  I purposely did not answer.  I am so glad that I checked the internet for this number!  It is obviously some kind of scam.  Thanks to all that posted here!!

Calls and hangs up

I agree with you 100% about solicitation calls being BS, but there is something I wanted to share with the people that come to these sites. I used to work at a call center, I did not like it, but I learned some things in my time there. The "Do not call list" is not a one time deal. Let me explain. If you ever enter contests/ drawings, use certain apps on your phone, play 3rd party facebook games, sign-up for some new service or club card, or change your phone number chances are you will have to add yourself to the do not call list on a daily basis. Any of these things can get your number put back out there, and people make money selling your #'s to companies. There are more things that can get you added back to a call list, just think about these things before you do any of them.

Also, this number called me. I am sorry to say that when a woman with an Indian accent tells me that my Government wants to give me $7k I am not going to believe her. It is a scam, people committing scams are obviously not going to follow any laws, let alone the do not call list. So instances like this are not the do not call list failing, it is simply a grand con scheme trying to get you bank account, or personal info. There are two groups of people that should be the targets of your anger here. 1. The people trying to con you, and 2. The idiot [***] that fall for this crap and encourage the thieves to keep going and try harder.

Hope the info about the do not call list helps some people out.

I am annoyed as well...receiving calls from the same number.
Calls and hangs up.

This number has been calling me as well. They keep saying I am awarded $7k too however I know it's a scam. I pissed them off so bad by asking questions that a guy came on the phone and yelled at me  he said "f^ck you mother f^cker". Over and over again.  Only thing I said was that I doubt the us gov would speak to me in such a manner lol. It's kind of fun messing with them, sometimes I speak Spanish or pretend like I believe them and ask for their acct numbers lol

The same thing happened to me, They asked for "is this Mrs. ------" then they hung up. When I called back I was told that the number is not in service.

Just got a call from this number.  Said they were from the federal government (didn't ask what country) and I had won money that they could give me with no fees.  When she asked (in very poor English) what I thought about that I said it sounded like a scam and I wasn't interested.  She hung up!!

Called me today at1910 hrs... Said they were a survey and please do not hang up... Told them they violated the do not call list at which they hung up.  Showed call from cell phone D.C. in caller ID.  Could hardly understand due to heavy foreign accent

Calls, hangs up as soon as I say "hello." Getting very annoyed.

This number texted me and said I won a free visa gift card

I called back and someone answered. Had a heavy accent and there was background noise. They said it was some treasury or something.
