As with everyone else, same recorded message, different phone number & name ID. This time caller ID says "pacifictel". Last month it said "pactel". Before that the name ID was the name of a state such as "Florida", "Kansas", etc., and before that it was "toll free call", "wireless caller", and others. Several different phone numbers often showed up under those different names. They are very proficient at Caller ID spoofing.
These scumbags goal is to get you to reveal your credit card information and your personal information. What they do with it after that is very likely to cause you enormous grief.
Don't bother attempting to be removed from their calling list. Pressing any key on your phone merely confirms that your phone number is valid. I use a device called 'Intelliscreener' to block them - either by number, or name. It responds with SIT tones to tell the robo-dialer that this is a non-working number. Unfortunately, this wonderful device is no longer being made. If you can find a used one grab it!
PS I really have to laugh at all the people who invoke the DNC list. Since when did criminals start complying with laws?? The DNC list is honored only by LEGITIMATE companies doing LEGITIMATE business!
