Telephone Call
Complaint
Maria Dumitru
Country: United States
Today at 7:58 AM I received a call from # 876-392-5782 KINGSTON, JM.
I was called about 5 times one after another because I refuse to talk to them. The caller was a woman for first and second calls, the rest of the calls, the caller was a men. Both of them had a strange accent. He said that I won 55,000,000.00,and thy are sending the money in increments of $500,000 every day. They were saying that there is a check for $500,000 and if I don't follow their order they will report to IRS that I have money and did not pay taxes for. I told them that I am not interested in this winning, and hanged up. She called back and I hanged up again, and then the man start calling. My husban answered the call, told the man at the oter end of the line that I did not won anything and not to call anymore, but that men kept calling, and my husband desconnected the phone. The people that make those calls gets very upset when thay see that they cannot fool you.
Can't our American Authorities do anything about those scam calls? On Internet is the same, many, many messages with this winning scam, on the phone the same thing, why the Telephone Companies does not step in and stop the calls that came from those countries, Jamaica and Nigeria?
If I other people call the telephon company and ask that all the calls that came from those caounties to be blocked the scamers will stop bothering people, because the scammers knows that they can not pass the telephon company, they will not be connected. The telephone Companies shoulg have a list(s) with people that do not want to receive calls from those counties that scammers calls from. The FBI can't do anything, the Police can't do anything but the Telephone Companies can do a lot by blocking the calls from this countries requested by the telephone subscriber(s) LETS DO SOMETHING ABOUT THOSE PASKY CALLS. Happy New Year every one.
