Try this: If YOU call the number, you get an automated message that allows you to place your number on their no-call list. You don't have to give any info about yourself except your phone number. It's been working for me.
This is a scam phishing for your credit card number. It's interesting how they ask for a lot of key information over the course of the call, not all at once. They work to confuse you just enough that you might give them something you shouldn't. It goes like this...
They have $100 certificate for me - which of four stores would I like it from - when I shop at that store, how do I pay - do I have the credit card with me I like to use - when does it expire - they want to mail my gift card - what is my middle initial - what's my address - what are the last four digits of my credit card number - there's a handling fee to receive the card, but I don't have to pay it now, just give them a credit card number - I refuse - they tell me to "get lost". They call back the next day - I tell them I'm on their no-call list, and I'll sue them senseless if they call me at work again. I never hear from them again after three weeks.
