Recorded message. "Heather" from Who-knows-who calling about lowering my interest rate on my credit card. I have no credit cards. This is clearly a scam, because they didn't identify themselves beyond being with "accounting," and I'm quite used to getting calls like this phishing for my personal information.
I've had my phone number associated with some unknown person for more than a year, and she apparently owes a lot of money. Nothing I do stops calls from debt collectors, con artists, scammers, and all of the other criminals who call me up looking for her. I'm on the Do Not Call list, but that doesn't help.
Getting the BBB and FTC involved has helped stop some companies from calling, but I just can't end the association between my phone number and this person. I haven't been able to determine if this association is in error, or if this person has been giving out my phone number.
