Receiving scam phone calls from these guys (905) 595-8640 (Ontario) for quite some time now. fed up with this.

They promise they can reduce my credit card debt and then they ask for credit card information. Crooks, bandits, theives...operating through Canada.

This last guy had a Filipino accent so not sure he was calling from within Canada, I doubt it.

Date Today:  Sunday, February 28, 2010**APOLOGY...I gave another #(905) 346-4828...(Pls disregard...It is NOT A SCAM; It is a legit #; is OK.)Thx...............................................................................................................................................BUT #(905) 595-8640 is definitely a scam.

Ok... these guys are scammers!!! Big Time!!!
First they told me that they were Mastercard and that they were going to lower my interest rate to 6% for being a good customer. Then they asked me for my address (which I told them they already had because I just got my new Mastercard), then they asked me for my expiration date (which I told them they had), then to read out my credit card number to them.... WTF!?  By then, I knew it was something like a SCAM because when I hung up and looked up their number on the yellowpages.ca... I saw all of these posts. BE CAREFUL PEEPS...
Since I had hung up on them to investigate they called me back twice... while I was talking to a REAL rep from Mastercard.
oh ya, by the way the guy's name was Alex Johnson and his title was Credit Card Advocate and that I could also reach him at (403) 648-9228.

This is exact number that I receive at my house the company calls themselves as Bedford Financial Solutions. They called me and told me   that because of my good credit I' v been chosen for help to lower my interest rates on all of my chosen credits cards.  They asking what credit cards you own, and they have some access to your outstanding balance which is scary. Do not give them any info about your birthday, credit card numbers,address etc. They ask for one fee only which is 295 $ to be able to negotiate between banks and tell you the bank should contact you within 24 hr . Also they want to make sure that you understand that they can not promise you exact  interest rate, only that it can go as far as 4to 6%. I learned my lesson hard way but I want people who read that to know that company won't help you just rip you off, so be alert.
