'Donavan' from Jamaica (area code 876) called with $550, 000 for me. I'd just have to pay 5% shipping ($555) through Western Union. I posed as an older man who had just lost his wife and was delighted at this good fortune. He will call back at a later time to get the delivery number or, since I made it difficult to predict when I would reach home, he gave me his 876-458-8518. Besides upping my age and status, I 'corrected' the spelling of my name and provided no other contact data. I'll have some more fun with... read full review »

My mother got a call from someone claiming to be Omar Jansen today. She was to call 876-583-1222. He provided a UPS package # (invalid number), bank account # (bank name curiously absent), etc... all in an effort to prove that he was legit. He said that she won 8 million related to Publisher's Clearing House and that this package was coming to her. He spoke with heavy accent but because his name was Omar, my mother thought he was Arab.

Rather than just preaching conservatorship, conservatorship, conservatorship... any ideas on how to simply block the calls from getting through? Conservatorship won't work for a lot of people, especially when the only apparent problem with some elderly persons is that they keep falling for this scam, sending money, etc. I've read about various products - Caller ID Manager and others - but most seem to either be discontinued or don't work with landlines or have some limitations. Another - ColdCallBlocker - supposedly allow... read full review »

My mother was called today. Told she won $225, 000 from a Megabox Sweepstakes. She was called by "John Rogers" who claimed to be a Pastor in Pennsylvania. He was very convincing and even though she knew from the start that this was a Scam, she was still interested enough that she wanted me to call to check it out. He told her something about eventually doing something at Western Union, but I am not sure of the details he gave. He gave her the return phone number of 876-875-3491. This area code appears to be from Jamaica. I did a Google... read full review »

Mildred Rice daily receives many phone calls from Jamaica, and it's not because she is trying to plan a white-sand vacation in the Caribbean. It's not unusual for Rice, who is 80 years old and has been taking care of her 102-year-old mother for the last five years, to receive as many as 30 calls a day. Her caller ID shows that most of the calls are "out of area" or from Jamaica. "The calls have driven us about crazy, " Rice said. Calls and letters from supposed foreign lotteries in places such as Europe, China... read full review »

I received scam phone calls wanting me to call an 876 number. The men are trying to tell me that have won 2.5 million and also the reimbursement of the money I have been scammed for. The names being used are Mark Mozalo and Mark Mc? You can tell these are not Americans by their accent. The phone numbers they are using are 876-492-6493 and 876-302-9115. There are two men working back to back to get you to pay a portion of the money. Started out wanting 387.00 then said they would pay half. When I told them I would pay nothing they became upset and hung up on me. read full review »

A woman (heavy accent) stated she was from Bank of America in New York, stated my home address correctly, and said she was holding a $75, 000 check that I had won thru a sweepstakes entry (which I never entered). All I needed to do was pay a processing fee of $260. I laughed and stated I did not believe this was legit. I asked to speak to the bank manager - who was of course not available, but would call back. Later I called the number that appeared on my cell (just to see) and got a... read full review »

In the advertisement and description of the service it says "Unlimited* local and long distance ..." However in the fine print there is "fair usage policy", which is fine. But there is also following statement in the fine print of fair usage policy: "Vonage World Canada plan is subject at all times to a limit of 3000 minutes ..." Which obviously contradicts with the word "Unlimited" in the main description of the service! This is not a situation of pending certain conditions but it is a set hard limit. read full review »

I tried to order three bottles of Calorad from Asantae.com. The minute I put my credit card information in the form, It was gone!!! No way to verify what I had ordered. Imagine the shock when I received the bill for over $333.00. They said I would have to pay them a 10% restocking fee to return the NINE (not three bottles ) they sent me. Also they charged me over $21.00 tax. My state does not mandate that tax be paid on internet orders. Please be aware that this site is a rip off. I am still fighting this and don't want anyone else to get ripped off by these crooks!! read full review »

Hollywood Congressman Howard Berman has proposed legislation that would effectively shut down peer-to-peer networks. His proposal calls for "technological self-help measures" such as interdiction, redirection, decoys, spoofing and file-blocking. This sort of action is a blatant declaration of cyberwarfare against consumers. The battle over technology vs. content is nothing new. While it is natural to resist change, it is necessary for growth. This ongoing battle is best described in relation to the Betamax lawsuit in the 1980s in... read full review »
