Some nonesence call center saying they could lower our credit card interest rate. When my wife pressed '1' to tell them to REMOVE us from our their call list, they answered - first by coughing (LOL) and then when asked to remove us from their list, they simply hung up.

It IS fraud.

Just got a call from this number yesterday. Thanks for the heads up people! Hamilton, ON

October 01 2011 same message Lisa - offering to lower credit cards rates.  New racket in town - again, and again and again.  Extremely annoying on Saturday afternoon especially when she repeats it 3-4 times.I do not even have a bloody credit card

Dave,Don't waste your money on a cell phone if you think it'll stop these calls.  I get just as many of these stupid calls on my cell as I do on my land line.  I have a feeling that many of these companies just blind-dial all the numbers (i.e. 0000-9999) in any given prefix they know is associated with a given city, regardless of if it's related to a land line or cell.
