Just got called, had a feeling it was not someone I wanted to talk to so I didn't answer.  *69 and got this number and googled it to find this page.  I pray whoever is doing this gets busted royally.

I got a call from this number.  first there was a recorded message saying that President Obama wants us to re-negotiate our mortgage then had options to press.  I pressed one and a girl on the line asked me if I was interested--I told her I had no idea who she was and she hung up.  I'm worried that this is a scam and others might be pulled into it.

didn't answer when i picked up.  afterwards,  i accidentally pressed to the number to call back.  turns out, they're some sort of loan modification co.

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-

Today, something about reducing interest on a credit card.  Just hung up to not waste any more of my time.  BTW I do not own a credit card.  Obviously a scam.  8.12.2009

I got a call from (613) 216-2172 and is was a recording with Congressman Steve Austria having a town meeting with his constituents...I put it on the speaker phone and listened to this garbage......He went on and on and on and on and finally I just hung up.  Too bad  a congressman has to call the US from a Canadian number......
