My Mom got a call on her line today.  I answered and got the message that I shouldn't be alarmed but that this was my last chance to lower my interest rate, or some such thing.  I hit 1 to speak to an operator and she came on and started right in with her pitch.  I interrupted her and asked her who she was calling and she said my mother's name and then just went right on with the pitch about consolidating debt and all.  I interrupted her again and said, "My mother is 92 and has no debt."  She hung up.  Of course, when I tried the number, I got a recording that the number had been disconnected.  I'm wondering if someone from the phone company can trace the number.  Maybe that recording is bogus.

We receive weekly calls from this number with the same scenario as everyone else listed. They give no information, and desparately want credit card information. Each time, they hang up. This nis more than frustrating.

It's credit card spam and who I really think these people are are people looking for information so they can steal identities.

The phone number redirects from another source. Basically, the originating host is untraceable, at least until an aggressive court-ordered trace occurs.

Keep reporting them so that if the courts get involved (credit card owner victimization), and when the true host name/site is nabbed, that enough data will be had for the courts.
