In the past 10 days, I‘ve received WAMU calls from the following numbers
972-244-6568     TEXAS
281-504-0039     TEXAS
305-384-2104     CSC/SEARS #2516
760-904-5066        UNKNOWN NAME
480-296-0235        ARIZONA

I  answered two of these calls, Both were from a guy with an accent that stated a technical error prevented my payment from posting and he asked for my checking account info. The first time I foolishly gave it out. Five days later (tonight) the payment is not showing on my account and I get another call from a guy with the same accent and story about technical problems and no record of the previous call or payment, and again asking for my banking info and authorization. This time I refused to give it out, stating I will make whatever payment is needed the way I always have. My account has been in good standing for the past 14 months,

It is Washington Mutual. Showed up on caller ID as Cameron Cooper. Washington Mutual uses a device that can display any number and name on your caller id to fool you into answering the phone.

This is another number that I get tons of calls from.  I don't understand why I'm getting them.  If it is in fact WaMu, weren't they bought out by somebody else?  So how do we know this is not a scam?  And, they NEVER leave a message and when I answer, nobody is there.  It's very annoying as I don't have a home phone so they are calling my cell and eating my minutes.  Between the 3 numbers that are calling me, I get over 40 calls a DAY, starting at 6 am going up to 9:30 at night!!
