The call ended as soon as I picked up. I called it back and "Julie from Rewards Redemption" came on (automatic voice message). "Press 1" to speak to a representative to get a $100 voucher for popular stores, or "Press 2" to have number removed from database. I pressed "2" then called them back and pressed "1." After about 1 minute a person with a very strong non-native-English-speaking accent spoke in English and asked for my name. I asked him what the company name was and couldn't understand from his accent but it sounded like "(Something) Rewards Limited." I asked him where he was located and, after several attempts, he finally said "Sacramento, CA." He wanted my address to send the rewards package but I pressed him for more details about the address. He finally said "222 Ohio Drive" and when I pressed him for a zip code he said "94203." Neither this street nor address exist in Sacramento, so I hung up.
There are other automated calls that I have received that have the same phone structure (press 1 to speak to a representative, press 2 to not be called again), so they may all be connected to the same source. Please stop these individuals from harassing people.
