Started receiving calls from 201-210-5973 (NJ area code) on a daily basis. Decided to answer it on 6-24-10. The caller said she was calling from East Valley Financial located in Mesa, AZ with an offer to lower the interest rate on my credit card and that she would have a representative contact me as I apparently qualified for the lower interest rate with the information I had given her (which I had purposely over-exaggerated). On 6-25-10, Jacob Simms calls from 269-682-0018 (MI area code), said he was calling from East Valley Financial in Mesa, AZ, gave me the number of 1-866-208-9351 to call him back in case the call should drop. I ended up having to speak with "Carl" as Jacob couldn't answer all my questions. I overheard Carl call me a b***** after he thought I had hung up the phone when I ended our conversation. (Apparently he wasn't very happy with me when I wouldn't give him my CC information and that I wanted to check them out with my CC company first). I proceeded to dial the number back 201-210-5973, got back in touch with Carl, told him I didn't appreciate his comment, his lack of professionalism and that I would be reporting East Valley Financial to the FTC. I urge EVERYONE that gets calls from this number to do the same if you are on the "Do Not Call" list.
