Got unwanted call from 888-449-5006?
scams....
888-449-5006 This number left a message stating that my credit card machine needs updating. I don't have a machine. I called them and asked to be removed from their calling list, and he demanded my "bank account number and credit card number that I used to open the merchant account so he can cancel services". I told him that I don't have a merchant account, so I will not give him my credit card and bank info. He got angry and screamed at me: "IF YOU DON'T GIVE ME YOUR CREDIT CARD NUMBERS, THEN I WILL TURN OFF YOUR MACHINE AND RUIN YOUR BUSINESS!" ~ (I don't have a business) So I said: "Go ahead! I DARE YOU!" He then called me a B**** and hung up.
