I get several of these calls a week, sometimes several in a day trying to make me believe they are my credit card company calling to lower my rate. This call had an impolite operator who was only out to get my personal information and the second they sensed I was not buying into the scheme, they immediately and rudely disconnected. I always immediately file a complaint with the "Do Not Call Registry" each time I get one of these, but it appears to do no good. The registry is probably just a data base to use for prosecution in the remote chance someone may actually try to call them on it through a complaint to local police or attorney general. I'm getting so frustrated by these calls, I may report them to a real authority myself. Perhaps a reader of this has a connection to a Dateline NBC show or 60 Minutes type investigative program that can find us real answers and put these scammers out of business for good. I'm already assuming the caller ID number shown is fake too and a spoof based on other comments in this forum.
