Fraud and Harrassment
A guy with an indian accent calls my phone and signs me up for subscriptions that i didn't even want. I even asked the guy if this was a scam and decided that i dont want his service and want him to take all my information off. he tells me that i wasted his time and forced me to sign up saying i can just cancel next week and not get charged. I reluctantly let him. I then cancel within two days. Within a week or two i find that my checking account was being charged for magazines that i had not yet received. I then reported it to the bank and got my checking account changed. The money was refunded by the bank but now magazines keep getting sent to my house and a bill is sent to my house every months. They cant touch my money but i dont want the magazines that they send me. The magazines have no return address so i cant send it back. I CANT STAND it any more. What can i do to stop the harassment? What do i do with the magazines that keep piling up?

Fraud/credit card scam
These people have been calling me for months and saying they will send me some materials to review and for doing that they will send me $200 voucher for WalMart and asked for my credit card information that was only to be charged for a $4.95 shipping fee. My card was charged for all types of promotions and when i called to try to get to the bottom of it they said i did not call and cancel my trail so i was charged the monthly fee. That came from this automated thing that they make you say yes to and they say it wont cost anything AND ITS A BIG FAT LIE. They will never send your things and they keep calling back saying i rgrest that you never got your card so this time we will give you $500 voucher but they never specify if it is a gift card or what. His name was "John Nelson" but he had a very strong Indian accent. They are supposedly located in Phoeniz Az and are complete scammers and pests. So the most recent time they called I looked them up and behold that lots of other people have been targeted by them and have experienced the same thing as me. So i told him well, im actyally looking you guys up right now and it appears that you have scammed hundreds of other people and he immediately hung up. hahaha...stay away from these creeps, cause they do sound pretty convincing.

Scam Phone Call
A woman with a heavy Indian Accent will call. I got mine May 12, 2010. Says your card was selected after being used for a $500 gift card to shopping stores. The man who follows is very rude, defensive, and won't take no for an answer. When I said I didn't want anything and to delete my card number, he wouldn't. He just kept defending it. I was on these scam sites at the time, so before receiving ANYTHING from them in the mail and getting sucked into the trap, I promptly went to my bank and cancelled my credit card number for a new one.

Targeting Kids!, Warn yours!
It appears that my son was a victim of the Discover Enterprises scam. He was talked into giving his credit union debit card number in exchange for a $500 grocery certificate if he would only pre view some magazines. What really bothers me is that when my son told them he was only 14 the guy said "Well just say you are 18". It think it is extremely sleazy of some company to try and rip off a 9th grader. They are very aggressive and kept calling him at school on his cell phone and harassing him until he agreed to their scheme. I have reported this incident to the Federal Trade Commission and I will also report it to the Virginia Attorney General's office. We will be getting his credit union account number changed. The counselor at the FTC said that anyone under age 18 can not enter into a legal binding contract so we should not be liable for any charges. Parents, please warn your children to be careful about strangers calling them on their cell phones. I told my son next time just hang up and if they keep calling, say you are going to report them to the FTC. BTW, these callers all have heavy Indian accents and go by very plain names like John Smith, Roger Brown, etc. They claim to be in Phoenix, AZ When we called back the number we get a company called "Main Stream Marketing and Grocery Savings" and a lady with an Indian accent answers the phone.

SCAM!
A guy with a very heavy Indian accent called me on April 21, 2010 and told me that me and 25 others were randomly chosen and we all won 500 $ to any grocery store of our choice. but with a shipping fee of 4.95 $
He gave me his name : Roysten Smith and ID number : 50317. He told me that they were located in Phoenix AZ but the number he called from was a california number. I looked up the company while I was on the phone and the first thing that popped up was "Cheat AND Scam!"
I asked him about it and he put me to a supervisor. The supervisor said that it was a fake website people put up to play tricks. Then he started to get really rude, I tried to see if I didnt have to give him my credit card number and do something else instead and he said "Absolutely noT! there is no way we can do this without it." he just kept talking and talking but i couldnt understand him well at ALL.
So I just told him to take my number off the list and all he said was "Okay." and that was it! notthing else after all the other yaking. so i hung up.

Unsolicited Calls
I received numerous calls on my cell phone from the above listed number. When I finally took the call, someone (supposedly) named Steven Jones was on the line with a heavy Indian-like accent. He tried to tell me that my number had been chosen to win a $500 gift card for groceries, but originally hesitated when I asked him for the name of the company that worked for. He read off my cell phone number and stated that my home number had been selected as a winner. When I pressed him for information on his company's name, where and how he got the number that he called, he only repeated himself.
Eventually I was passed along to a "verification officer". Someone named Shannon got on the line with an equally heavy Indian-like accent and tried to verify what Steven tried to tell/sell me. When I pressed her for the company information and how did they get my information, she repeated herself 2-3 times and eventually hung up on me.
The one bit of information that "Shannon" did give me was that "they" got my information from my Visa company and that they were only trying to send me my "winner's package".
If anyone gets a similar call, I strongly recommend that you DO NOT agree to anything. If and when possible, push them on everything and anything you can. They backed off and ultimately hung up on me when I pushed them.

fruad
So I get a phone call from this guy that cant speak english. Asking me all kinds of questions and telling me that I won free gas. Somehow he has my credit info and I keep telling him I am not interested. Finally I hang up. That was last week, Now I am being charged for something that I didn't ask for. If this is not fruad I don't know what is. I hate telemarketers. They are the ones who should be out of a job, instead of hard working americans. Who the hell do they think they are interupting your day as well as your phone bill. When you try to call these people back they never answer. I am so frustrated. I think I will just cancel my accounts and just pay cash from here on out.

Scam
Discover Enterprises IS FAKE thanks to this site I know that for sure..thanks a lot. Me and my wife got a text one day saying that we had won a 200 hundred dollar wal-mart gift card...and it never came. We were cautious or so we thought. Yes we made the mistake of giving them all of our information because to me and my wife our prayers had been answered. Something should be done. Not only were we broke in the first place but just got a baby out of the hospital. These people are nothing but vultures praying on innocent people. urgggggh. But when we found out about this scam from this site we had to change our bank account. THANKS!!!
