Tried to talk us into a warranty

This is this third time this company has called. They claim this is my second and final call about the warranty on my car. I called back. A woman named Shalonda answered. When I asked who she was and who she was working for (after she told me she had three 'quick questions' to ask me).... she hung up the phone. I tried calling back a few times and then it kept disconnecting me. By the way, I do NOT have a car and the phone this shady person called was my work phone. Nice job.

I get these calls almost everyday, at least one a day. When I pick up no one answer, I try calling back and that number is disconnected….

keeps calling me. no idea why. leaves no message.

THIS NUMBER KEEPS CALLING ME NONSTOP 3 TIMES ON MY CELL. I CALLED IT BACK AND GOT NO ANSWER, NO VOICEMAIL, NOTHING. SO, THE LAST TIME THEY CALLED WAS ABOUT 30 MINUTES AGO. I PICKED UP AND SAID 'YO MAMA' AND SURPRISINGLY, THEY DIDNT CALL BACK.

Got the call on my cellphone today ~ my cell for pete's sake!!  I totally missed the call  as I was tryig to make my lil guy lunch. They left no message and when I tried to return the call, I got a weird tone each time.

Called 4 times in one day - no msg left.

Got 4 phone calls from this number today! WTF

Got the same message about a second notice about a warranty expiring that some other people on this site have mentioned.  They left a voicemail.  I get about 2-3 calls a week about this stuff, from different numbers.

Call from 256-261-7787 on my brand-new cell phone. Where'd they even get my number!? Extended car warranty salespeople and scammers are among the scum of the earth.

I received this call today. They will never stop! In this bad economy, these scammers are out in full force to take advantage of people. They must cease and desist!

i get these calls too!! about once a day if not twice! i can not stand it anymore it's driving me crazy. i filed a complaint on the fcc's website. here's a list of the numbers that are calling me:253-964-6881 (2 calls)909-842-9123 (1 call)704-970-1583 (2 calls)202-747-7323 (1 call)231-732-2338 (1 call)800-245-2244 (1 call)202-495-7170 (1 call)443-205-1003 (2 calls)541-784-2120 (1 call)231-732-2335 (2 calls)256-261-7787 (1 call)

They call me on my Skype phone number and I live in Sweden...Fortunately I turn my computer off or the sound down at night or we'd be woken up often by idiotic calls like these. Geez.

Got a call from this number to renew a warranty that does not exist. Scam!  Beware!

My wife, my son, and my mother all received calls from this number. They didn't answer their phones because they didn't recognize the number. So far it has been only one call per phone.

Got a call from this number... since I don't recognize it and it had no name, I didn't answer it. Plus, they didn't leave a message. I'd assume it was a bill collector, but I don't have any bills in collection... besides, I JUST got a new number since I moved and no one even has it yet!

Yep, they call me several times a week, my cell rings into my office so I always answer that phone, but always hang up when the recording starts. maybe we'll be able to stop them someday. When they called my phone i thought it was someone I actually knew, we live in the 256 area code in Alabama.

Thanks Jack!

this number has called multiples of times, always telling me that I only have one last opportunity to get my warranty for my car.

I called the number listed for Jason the one that Jack posted on his comment, it actually had jason answer at 10:30 pm pacific time, sweet !! if its him we should all call him at ungodly hours.    FYI  he said he didnt know what I was talking about and then hung up but didnt appear surprised to hear that his number was listed HAH!

I RECEIVED A CALL AT MY CELL TALKING ABOUT ''SECOND NOTICE''ABOUT MY CAR WARRANTY EXPIRE(N I DONT HAVE A FREAKY CAR)

called me too--wtf?

they called my prepaid cell 3 times today once a 3 IN THE MORNING then at 8 and the 3rd time was seconds after the 2nd time.. its annoying then they called my other phone what it wrong with people theses days

I answered.I got ownd.

I got a call from this number 1 256-261-7787 to my cell phone but no one was on the line and left no voice message....

Wish these calls would stop. I don't have a warranty.

This ia a scam. This # 256-261-7787 has been calling me atleast 3 times a week for the past couple of months. Finally I got tired and spoke with someone on the phone to take me off their call list. This is a big time SCAM. These people are the worst kind of SCUM you can get. Why has the goverment let this on for so long? Why has no one been sent to jail for this?

Missed the call, but I looked it up on the junk list and it was there.

call was recieved on my pre-paid cell phone (Net10) and when I answered they hung up on me. I never give out my # so I tought it might have been a wrong #. Thanks all for leting me know it is a scam so I don't waste anymore mins on them.

I got a missed call from this number about 4 hours ago.  When I called back, it was just a machine saying there was nobody there to respond.  I have Sprint btw.

Okay I have Verizon also!! this s**t is getting to be rediculous. I keep getting calls from these people and others. If Verizon is giving out my number I am about to go off. Also, I was looking at the time everyone else posted and it looks like we were all hit at the same time!!

THIS NUMBER CALLED ME2 TIMES ALEADYAND WHEN I CALL BACKNOBODY IS THERE ANDITS THE SAME WAY WHENI PICK IT UP !

PEOPLE. PLEASE READ THE COMMENTS BEFORE POSTING!!!YOU MAY THINK THAT SOMEONE FROM ALABAMA IS CALLING YOU.THEY DID NOT.SOME VICTIM'S PHONE NUMBER WAS SPOOFED ON A CALLER ID FOR A SCAM COMPANY.Important message to all those that have received a call from this number:The company making this call with an auto dialer is a known scam outfit. They spoof phone numbers of victims all the time. Sometimes, they spoof non-working phone numbers. The phone number 256-261-7787 is just another victim of these scumbags. I've done a lot of research of this company. Actually, there are several affiliated companies, owned by the same people that try to scam innocent victims. One scam is about auto warranties. The other is about credit card debt relief. They even have scams about dish television, home alarms, and more. Their MO is the same. The use an auto dialer, and call thousands of random numbers. They have no regard to the do not call lists. Your demands or complaints to them are worthless. They will continue to call you.They will not remove you from their call lists. Why? BECAUSE THEY DO NOT MAINTAIN ANY. THEY ARE CROOKS. THEY HAVE NO REGARD TO THE MANY LAWS THEY BREAK.If they call about a car warranty, the message says something as "This is the second notice on your extended vehicle warranty. Press one now to speak to a representative..." The message about credit debt mentions "This is Account Services. We are calling to lower your credit card debt. Press one now to speak to a representative..."Here are the details of these do***ebags:VP Marketing1820 Water Place PkwySte 255Atlanta GA 30339678-741-3188678-741-3189They also were previously known under a different corporate name, with a different address:Versadebt Corp.4501 Circle 75 ParkwaySuite #A-1225Atlanta GA 30339678-238-1300678-238-1349678-238-1351Here is the first ever media report exposing these crooks! From Fox 5 Atlanta - WAGA, a 6 minute new video that confirms everything:http://www.myfoxatlanta.com/dpp/news/ITeam_Auto_Warranties_032409According to the report VP Marketing is owned by Jason Eyer. Here is how you can contact this person, courtesy of public records filed with the Georgia Department of State:Jason Eyer1603 Mosaic WaySmyrna, GA  30080407-902-1950407-902-9377Both companies are listed with the Georgia Department of State. Here is how you can lookup their information: http://corp.sos.state.ga.us/corp/soskb/CSearch.aspVersadebt was voluntarily dissolved in August, 2008.You will find that the "Registered Agent" for VP Marketing is Perry A Phillips, 358 Roswell Street, Suite 1130, Marietta GA 30060. The listed "Member/Manager" is James A. Schoenholz at the 4501 Circle 75 Parkway address.Versadebt's Registered Agent is the same James A. Schoenholz at the 4501 Circle 75 Parkway address. There is one additional name listed for Versadebt. The listed CEO, CFO, and Secretary is named Marvin Cox, Jr. at the same address.In fact, Marvin Cox may be the owner of all of these related companies.Here are some links to prove my research:Job listings for VP Marketing:http://www.careerbuilder.com/JobSeeker/Jobs/JobResults.aspx?ncc=^"VP+Marketing"$&cbRecursionCnt=1&cbsid=65cc3191c8ec4200beb8f180570269d1-267407999-RF-4&ns_siteid=ns_us_g_"vp_marketing"_atNotice the job listings for "Appointment Setter," "Qualification Representative," "Auto Warranty Specialist," and "Financial Representatives." Those are the idiots you get on the phone when you press "1" to speak to a representative after receiving their ILLEGAL recorded phone calls. Also, you can see many other job listings with similar titles.Interestingly, if you view these help wanted ads, you will notice that their address and phone number are different from what is listed with the Georgia Department of State. They now list 678-741-3188  and 678-741-3189 as the phone number of Human Resources. IT IS PERFECTLY LEGAL TO CALL THEM AS THEY LISTED THEIR NUMBER IN A PUBLIC FORUM. Call them to find out more information about this company. You will need this in your complaints to the FCC, FTC, and your state Attorney General.You can call them to see if they offer Car Warranties or tell them you are interested in a lower interest rate. It is quite humorous to listen to their answers!Here are some details from RipOff Report. Pay particular attention to these (especially the first link) as ex employees detail how they operate and how their scam works:http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/418/RipOff0418596.htmhttp://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/312/RipOff0312307.htmhttp://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/301/ripoff0301144.htmhttp://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/276/RipOff0276693.htmhttp://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/301/RipOff0301861.htmYou can learn much more about these do***ebags by performing a web search for "versadebt," and "vp marketing," or "heather from account services."NOW, WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT THIS? You have two solutions:1) Speak to one of their customer service representatives. Pretend to be interested in either lowering your credit card interest rate or a car warranty. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY REAL INFORMATION. Give them a fake credit card number, a fake name, and a fake SS#. Tell them you own a Ferrari, or a 1937 Dodge (however, if you really own one of those two, tell them you own a Buick). Give a made up VIN number. If they ask for your name and phone number, give them the info for the person you hate the most.Your goal is simple. Keep them on the phone for as long as possible. Be friendly. Your goal is twofold. You want to learn as much as possible about them. They will refuse to give you a website, phone number, or maybe even a real company name. They will attempt to give you a generic name such as "Account Services," "Financial Services," or "Dealer Services." This is done for a reason, to throw you and the government off their tracks. Do not accept this. Keep pressing for info. You will need this (see below).EVEN BETTER IS IF YOU CAN RECORD THE CALL.Also, the time you take from them means them have less time to steal from someone who is unknowledgeable about their scams. They get paid to rip people off. Take away their time, and they make no money! I have kept them on the phone for up to 20 minutes! I realize that many of you do not have the time. But do you appreciate being taken advantage of?Ever hear of Scambaiting? That is what you are doing!!! There are many entertaining web sites on this topic. For example, see:http://www.419eater.com.2) YOU MUST REPORT THEM TO THE AUTHORITIES:FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION!Here is the link to file a complaint: http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htmFEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION:https://donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspxYou must also file a report with the Attorney General of your state. See the last link below to see how effective this can be.I file complaints against VP Marketing and Versadebt every time I receive a call. If everyone that received a call from these low-life scumbags does the same, then the combined action of thousands of us can stop these crooks from scamming innocent people out of money. You may also try to write your congress person.Additional information: This is what can happen if everyone were to complain!http://ago.mo.gov/newsreleases/2009/AG_Koster_says_GA_telemarketers_will_pay/http://ago.mo.gov/newsreleases/2008/TRO_again ... all_violations/See the following press releases to see how effective your complaints can be:http://ago.mo.gov/newsreleases/2008/030608.htmhttp://ago.mo.gov/newsreleases/2008/National_ ... filed_by_Nixon/http://ftc.gov/opa/2008/05/telephoney.shtm

i never answer calls from unknown numbers.is verizon leaking our numbers out to phone spammers??!

BTW... I have verizon also!

I, too, just received a call from this number.  I, too, did not answer... looks like this was a good choice.

Just got a call from this number....didn't answer

Yep, got this one today but missed the call. I searched the area code and it says it an Alabama number.

Got a call from this number 20 mins ago. No-one there when I answered.

Just got the same call.  How can they continually call from this number but not be able to receive calls?  Verizon is my service as well.  Do they sell there listing or something?

Shalonda was calling about a second notice about my vehicle warranty. When I asked for her last name she hung up immediately. When I called back I received a Verizon message that the number was disconnected or unavailable. Probably one of the many scams that Verizon is involved in, directly or indirectly.

Got a missed call

Just got a call from this number, different from the spam caller numbers I usually get. The ID showed as a call from Alabama, so I didn't pick it up.

just got a call on my cell phone saying this was my "second notice" about my car warranty expiring Logged it for next time.
