I got this call today. It is a company pretending to be federal agency offering home loans.
I tried to press 1 to get a live person to come on and immediately their line starting putting some kind of a dialing code on to my line. I hurriedly hung up and called phone company to stop anyone from slamming me, just in case that was their plot.
You won't get a live person on the incoming call. Report them to the Federal Do Not Call list if you get their call. You have to have signed up 31 days prior to receiving any calls before you can report them. But even if it hasn't been 31 days, if the call comes in on a recorded line, which it did, you can report it anyway.
