The number is calling to confirm an order for ecigarettes. Prado is running a deal online to try their ecigarettes, claiming it's free and all you pay is the shipping and handling. NOT TRUE! Once you confirm, you find you've actually been enrolled in a monthly plan where they plan to charge you $169 (going on memory here) monthly service. In addition, the "shipping and handling" charge is going to an overseas bank causing additonal charges for the overseas transaction. I tried to cancel my order immediately and when "successful" I was told the upshot was limiting my time to get the product back before being charged for an additional month.
Bottom line - IT'S A SCAM! I'll be calling my bank today to try and despute the charge and - most importantly - any future charges. Got a bad feeling I'll have to cancel and reopen my account to keep their fingers out of my pocket.
Hope this helps.
