I am also on the DNC list, but every time I try to get some info to get them stopped, they hang up.This time, I played along. The automated message said they were from "Credit Card Services". When I spoke to a representative, he asked if I wanted to lower my credit card rate. I told him I did. He asked if I had over $4000 in credit card debt, I told him I did. (even though I have no credit card debt.) I was trying to get to the point where he would ask me personal information so I could question him back. But then the curious question happened: "Are you over 70 years old?"I replied no, thinking a credit card company would be interested in younger people. With that, he hung up. It concerns me that they are targeting older people exclusively. My grandparents would probably fall for this-

Got the call. Where am I right now? In Canada. Look it up and find it is the same group of people that were calling while in the US. There are two of thse groups, one out of St Louis and one out of Atlanta. Atlanta does most of the CC modification calls. It is a bunch of people who hire the boiler room call centres to make the calls and when they hook you they will give you another 800 number. The Do not call list will not work, they ignore it, in fact one claim is they down load the list of do not call numbers and now have a complete dialling list and do not need to pay anyone for the numbers. Cut the cost and we are all feeding their lists. Further, a Canadian company call pull in the US DNC list and dial away and vice versa for calls into Canada. The only way you can make this stop is if you call your State Attorney General and file a complaint. Go to the State website and write an email. Take the time you would waste answering these endless calls and send an email. If you did that every time they called, the AGs would get about 3-4000 emails a day. You think they would do something? Just to make the emails stop!
Take back your phone, use the systems that has got us all trapped on this hamster wheel.

Just got a call from these bozos. Shows up as ONTARIO and the number (613) 216-2172.
Since we've been getting these daily I finally presses 6 to talk to someone. Apparently we qualify for a credit card rate reduction.
When I asked from which bank they were calling, they hung up.
This one doesn't pass the smell test.
very unhappy
My parents have received numerous calls from this number and no on eis on the other end. I call the number back (# on caller id) and it rings busy. I added my parents number on the "do not call" directory but I believe these people are working from an old list. Its very irritating. I am sure the telephone company should be able to do something about this issue.
