Had at LEAST 10 calls from this outfit. Dead air every time I check my voice mail.
I am betting this is a "call-bot" for a phishing outfit. "Michael in MA" reported on 11 Jul 2012 the message stated " You have been contacted by your local cable company. If you have any questions about this call, call 1-800-XXX-XXX." Since Charter is his local cable company , he assumed it was Charter.
HOWEVER, Charter LOVES the sound of their on name. Would NEVER refer to themselves as
"your local cable company."!!! So BEWARE of phishing.
This is 2013, so 202-800-5566 might be a different gang of pirates running a completely new scam. So, CYA!!! Do not give up any information!!!
