This number is listed as belonging to an elderly woman in Haines City, FL. I seriously doubt that she is the one calling people randomly. However, I have been reading the posts on the different websites and there is a new scam that telemarketers and scammers are using. They are SPOOFING THE PHONE NUMBERS OF REGULAR PEOPLE, knowing that their phone numbers will not be part of the lists of spoofed numbers such as can be found on the caller complaints website. There is no way that an old woman (by the way, the real owner of this phone number is not named Lisa), is randomly calling people. I suspect that this woman's phone number may have been hi-jacked and is being used for these scammers.

When Googled, this number show that it is registered with an older person in Haines City, Fl who has no reason to be randomly calling people .Recent articles at Better Business Bureau,Scambusters Dot Org and The Fiscal Times Dot Com indicate that there is a NEW SCAM. Telemarketers and fraudsters are now using the spoofed numbers of regular people (including small businesses, friends, neighbors, anyone and believe it or not...they are even spoofing our own phone numbers in the caller ID. They are hoping that householders will pick up the phone if the call looks like it is from a regular person, small local business and that we will be curious enough to pick up especially if we see our own phone number in the caller ID). Don't pick up if you see your own number in the caller ID. IF you do pick up, BBB warns do not press any buttons, don't call the scammer back, do not trust whatever you see in the caller ID anymore and never give out any financial information. The info from BBB is from Central East Texas.

Something is seriously wrong with the calls coming from this phone number. For the past 3 weeks, I have received calls from this number with "Florida" in the caller ID. No messages. Today, I received a call from this same number with the name of Dianne Wright in the caller ID. Some strange phenomena related to this phone number are: (1) On the " why call me" website, this phone number is registered to an elderly woman named Glenna Fisher in Haines City, FL This information was confirmed on the ypeek dot addresses dot com website through the haines city, florida white pages.
The phone number was also confirmed at this website. (2) Why would this woman be randomly calling tons of people multiple times per day and week, saying that her name is: Tina, Robin Smith, Dianne Wright and someone from the
AIC energy company? (3) It appears that some scammer has spoofed this woman's phone number for their scam calls. (4) The BBB has recently advised that there are new scams being used: one which spoofs the phone numbers of
regular people in the caller ID and the other scam which spoofs the phone numbers of the targeted call. The BBB says that in both cases, the objective is to trick the person into picking up the phone. Phone numbers of regular people are not likely to be on the lists of spoofed numbers available online. People who see their own phone numbers in the
caller ID are supposed to be so shocked and/or curious (hoped for by the scammer), that they will pick up the phone if for no other reason, just to see why their own phone number is showing up in their caller ID. Whoever is behind the calls from this number, it is clearly a scam. I feel very badly for the woman whose phone number is obviously being abused.
