These people who say they are Card Member Services are crooks running a scam. There are many such people running this scam so don't think this is just one company or that putting your name on a do not call list will have any effect. The object of the scam is to get your name and credit card number which they will then happily use leaving you will a bill. The last thing you should do is interact with these people. Simply do not answer these calls. What I do is keep a list of such names in my dumb phone memory under IGNORExx so I know not to answer if they call back. I hear there are apps for smart phones which prevent the phone from even ringing when an ignored number calls.
