Claimed to be CDC but were very rude. They asked of I had received a letter, I said no and asked what address they had for (as we recently moved out of state) and she Hung up.
If they are so "legitimate," they should leave a voice message. Instead, if you don't answer the call they remain anonymous by hanging up but then keep calling back and back and back. Bad form for a "legitimate" business.
I also am convinced that the way they got my cell phone number is through AT&T wireless phone lists. First, the explanation the NORC website give for how they get your phone number is nothing but nonsensical double-speak. "From banks"? Really???
All I can tell you is that a few weeks ago I changed wireless carriers after having been with my previous carrier for five years, now changing to AT&T. Previously I had NONE of these type calls over the previous FIVE YEARS I was with my other wireless carrier (with the same number!). In the two weeks since I switched to AT&T, I have had approximately 15 of these type calls already, although only three from this particular number. IN JUST TWO WEEKS! Don't tell me it's not connected to them somehow getting my wireless number from AT&T wireless records. Too coincidental.
