We had been receiving calls from 'Milano Kerry' for a few days now, but since we did not know who it was we didn't answer. Finally this morning my mom decided to answer. A lady claimed to be from UPS and that we had a package waiting for us at a certain address (they just gave us the street name, no street number, no city name, no zip code...that should have been a red flag). They started giving out our information (name and address) that we needed to confirm so that they could send us the yellow card needed to pick up the package.My mom confirmed the address and name, but when they asked if she was 18 or older, she told them there was no need for them to know any more information for the simple act of just sending a package. My mom being aware of scams kept asking them why they needed all this information. She was transferred to the "manager" so that he would answer them. He just repeated to whole story about the little yellow card they were going to send. Well this manager kept listening to the conversation even after she was transferred back to the lady, because everytime she would ask the lady more questions, the guy would immediately cut in and answer. Anyway, we hung up on them. They called back two more times.
So if you get a call from them, don't answer (but that's a bit boring, why not play with THEIR heads a little?)
P.S. this was all in spanish, so i guess they have bilingual staff on hand.
