Got a call from (506) 229-00410.  After recorded message, said press 1 to lower your credit card interest rate.  I felt like having some fun, so I pressed 1.  A female answered and asked my name.  I said "You called me.  You don't know who you called?".  She replied that they were just trying to verify information and offered to lower my credit card interest rate.  I said which card and she said any visa or mastercard I had.  I then offered to give her my debit card number and PIN number.  She hung up on me.  HA!

5-062-298-9792 comes up on my caller ID often.  When I try to call back to ask them to stop calling it states that the number is incorrect.  It sounds as though they are hiding something. I also would like to know how to block this nonsense from my CELL phone.  I feel sorry for people who get caught up in their scheme.. which it appears to be. They call constantly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is there no peace in this world from these vultures.

Scam!  Call is about credit card rates and it is a way to get information from you!!  Be very careful!!

These numbers are originating from San Jose, Costa Rica (or being routed through there). 506 is the country code. The following 2 is the landline prefix (since 2008), then comes the 7-digit local number. 11 digits in all. Check this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%2B506.The scammers are obviously using foreign routing to hide their identity and bypass the do not call system.  I don't know what you can do about it except don't answer calls starting with a 5. If you have AT&T you can use their Privacy Director which intercepts Unknown callers and gives you the option of answering or not. I had that for awhile and miss it very much since I switched to Charter. If you're using another company, complain to them about the problem and maybe they'll provide a similar service (yeah right).

(506) 229-61355 was the latest no answer

Does anyone know what we can do?

Just got a call from (506) 229-14179. An automated voice saying to lower my credit card rate. How do we stop this phone scam?
