8663278877

I posted an ad on craigslist regarding a car for sale. Someone 'anthony' called me via this number - clearly a deaf interpreter service but the level of questions being asked was progressively invasive and was asking about putting the car on hold for over a week (no deposit) and that they would definitely show up and pay cash. I stopped it short as I had stronger leads and I had heard scams operate in this way.

Just FYI.

i got this too, they said that it was from a friend of mine trying to ge ta hold of me to help them with math homework and asked for my address so they could come by after i said come to my place instead of theirs. i hung up when they asked for my address.

I just called the number back. It is Sorensen Video Relay services for the deaf. I have a deaf son and he has a video phone that is run by Sorensen. I do have a caution for those who left comments about scammers. If you know a deaf person, tell them to spread the word through the deaf community to be aware of scammers. Our son has been scammed from the Internet. And now I'm wondering if he was scammed from the video relay (not the company but a person who figured out they can access the deaf through this type of sevice). Never, never send money to someone or some company that you know nothing about or have never met, even an "online love."

They are a legit service. We had had calls from them 3 times with a deaf person calling with electric scooter questions. That person has come into the store as well.

This is Sorenson Communications video relay service for the deaf and hard-of-hearing.  They are interpreting for a deaf or hard-of-hearing person using sign-language.  These people can't call people directly because they can't hear what the other person is saying.

It is a legitimate company,  Unfortunately, some people misuse the service to commit fraud or scams.  If you don't know anyone who is deaf and you are not a company, then it's probably a scam.

If you recently put an ad on Craigslist for puppies or a boat, and they are asking you about it, it's probably a scam.

If they want you to cash a check and send the rest of the money to their "Shipper Agent" then it's probably a scam.

If they are asking for the special at a restaurant or they are ordering pizza, it's legit.

If they are ordering 200 of something, it's probably a scam.

You know, just FYI, lol.

Received call from this number at 7:30 am.  Asked if I knew her cousin, gave me his name.  I told her I used to work for him.  Then she wanted to know if he still was located on a particular street.  I told her to look him up in the phone company and call him herself, then hung up.

We received a phone call from your services.. The person Tracie Singleton used a voice phone yesterday.. He is in the Atlanta GA area.. He is not hearing handicapped.. And the operator was doing unprofessional job.. So now I am thinking we were scammed by this Tracie into thinking they were using your services. I don't think your operators would have behaved like that or talked like that in their use of professionalism, good manners, politeness, good business communications..

The woman asked "Hi,is this a business?".When I said "No" there was silence. Then I said "Hello?", she said "I'm sorry" and hung up.

I had a lady say she deaf. She said she was sending a cashiers check. Then she said that she was sending extra 50.00 for me to pay the mover. she asked me to make it western union. A friend told me she recieved a similar story.

Just got 2 calls today, she wanted to buy stuff for my business insisting paying above my price via credit card. I knew it was a scam, so I offered to sell her farmed fresh T-Rex eggs from California along with whale meat. The caller fell for it & I told her to eff yourself!!!!

I got call from 844-546-821  telling me to call Credit Union 866-327-8877 telling me my credit cards is fraud and wanted me to give them my credit cards.  I refused.  Someone was calling on my VP.  How this person know I have VP( VideoPhone for Deaf.
