I don't even have a credit card, and they're trying to talk me into getting one through them......they ONLY need my DOB, my how much $$ I make, and My Social Insurance Number.....Do I really sound that STUPID????

I had the same thing happen. I mean if the credit card company wanted to reduce my rate because I pay off my credit card in full they'd just do it. They would also know the information they are asking for. And they always ask for confirmation question to make sure it's them. Plus they are asking for more then one of your credit cards, this means they are NOT with the card issuing company and they can't possibly be from your credit card company. Also, did a reverse look up and it's a land line in British Columbia, Canada it appears to be through Telus. Obviously NOT a REAL call center! THIS IS A SCAM BEWARE!!!

Credit card consumer advocate called with caller id of (250) 980-3438 with same offer of reducing interest rates on credit cards.  Could hardly understand him and he said he would call back.  2 minutes later called back showing a (647) 288-1289 area code id and went through the spiel. I told him I would not give any information over phone and that I would check out their info and call back if I wanted to pursue anything.  He gave me a Alberta area code number (403) 648-9228.  I could not find these numbers on reverse directories so with what they are asking for it would be wise to rebuff them. This guy gave the name Oscar Smith.  Nice non-descript name for a guy that speaks english with a heavy east Indian accent.

same thing as above.. it sounded like a really crowded call centre.. they were offering me a lower interest rate. i just hung up on them. they keep calling.

Called today from them, they were "calling about my visa or mastercard". I said which one? They said whichever one you have. I said who are you, where did you get my number and take me off your list - I do not want telemarketing calls". Unbelievable.

Got a call from these clowns today.  I now just say sorry that person is not at this number and hang up, fastest solution.
