    They're very diagonous with their wording. It is simply clear they are not altruistic as what public Clearing House actually is and they are trying to scam anyone to get their information and making them believe they won plethora amounts of money but having to pay in order to get it. Which is not part of the regulations or rules.

I hung up but I was more curious so I called back but it would take me to a robot saying, "Your call is very important to us stay on the line and we will find an agent."

  • (518) 783-5134
    Scammer/Fraudster
    A phone call purportedly from this number went to voicemail. The voicemail claims to be Comcast Xfinity stating "now you can get your existing services with us only in $79 and .99 per month including all taxes". The recorded message asks you to call a different number, namely 888-459-5124, from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM Pacific Standard Time. This is probably a spoofed number. SCAM!
  • (518) 810-1513
    Scammer/Fraudster
    Answered call and when the caller asked "Are you there?", and roommate responded "yes"..... YIKES!!! NOT the way to respond to ANY questions by an unknown caller. This is a SCAMMER.
