Ginny S's profile and activity

I've received at least six calls ON MY CELL PHONE in the last week from 1-800-452-5731. Only once, a woman answered and asked for someone who was unknown to me; every other time was a hang-up as soon as I answered. I called the number this morning to find out who was calling and why they continued to call even after I told them that the other person was not at (my) number. I was on hold for at least 15 minutes, listening to a message in English and French, before I finally hung up.

This site indicates the number belongs to Allied Interstate, a debt collection agency evidently known for this type of practice.

I have no idea how they got my cell phone number, why they're calling me after they've been told (---) does not live here, nor how I can get them to stop calling.

Thank you for any assistance/advice you can offer!
