I got a text message to my cell phone from this number.
"Is your credit card debt $10,000 or more? Our debt relief program can lower your payments immediately. May we please give you a call?"
This call was made at 9:37 AM (Eastern Standard Time) on 10/20/09
I tried to call the number, but SURPRISE, I get the greeting of "I'm sorry, but the person that you have called has a voice mailbox that has not been set-up yet." Hmmmmm, imagine that! It was just what I expected.
I am guessing that this is someone trying to phish for info.
I called AT&T Wireless and told them about the text message. They did not have a fair solution for me. (BAD AT&T!!!!!!) They said that if the number came from a company and was a different amount of digits in the phone number, they could do something about it, but because it came from a regular 10 digit phone number, they could not do anything. Now they did offer to let me subscribe to an addition service that would allow me to block the number, but yea right!!! Why should I have to pay every month for someone else's wrong doings? I told them that I thought that this was an unfair solution. He agreed with me and stated that he would mention the situation to his manager. Well, at least its something. I doubt that it will go any further though.
