I received a call offering me lower interest rates on my visa. The person knew way too many details about me...    Funny thing is I don't have any credit cards. He gave me a name,probably phony. Name of company was Credit Card Consumer Advocate. The phone number to call back was 1-+1 888-516-2459....although my call display showed 1-(647) 288-1289.
Good news though ....apparently my payment history is in good standing otherwise they wouldn't be calling. LOL!!!

I am located in Calgary and I received a call on Feb. 5, 2011 from (647) 288-1289. The male caller didnot introduce himself to me, i.e. his name or which company he was working for. I asked him multiple times to tell me who he was and where he was calling from. He was calling to request that I "confirm" my credit card information with him. I told him to remove me from this call list and he hung up on me. I reported the call: https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/plt-cmp-eng.

We get called several times a day, and have for years. They want to get your credit card or personal data for some scam product or service. If you answer tell them nothing and hang up. Asking to be taken off their list, or threats go nowhere.Don't waste your time getting frustrated.They use spoofing software to fake any phone exchange in the world. They use a dialer to call hundreds of numbers at the same time.http://www.officialspoofcard.com/These are the morons that should be prosecuted. They say it's great for professional people to protect their identity - but we all know the scum that use these services/software.These jerks could be anywhere - likely some 3rd world country where no law can reach them. Don't answer and NEVER expect them to stop.They won't.

Tried to get credit card information including expiry dates.

Claimed to be a program from MasterCard to lower the interest rate

BEWARE of this # they also call from = (403) 648-9228

repeated calls from (647) 288-1289  made to my unlisted phone number.WHEN WILL SOMEONE BE ABLE TO STOP THEM?????????????
