nmoira Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 From ArsTechnica: Five robocalling companies that defrauded consumers of an estimated $30 million by promising to lower credit card interest rates in exchange for exorbitant fees have been shut down by the Federal Trade Commission, the agency said today. Still, I won't be surprised to get a call from one of Rachel's friends soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nestof3 Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I wish all robo calls and telemarketing calls would stop. The phone rang four times here -- all junk calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrothead Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I can't believe they got that many people to fall for it. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 From ArsTechnica: Still, I won't be surprised to get a call from one of Rachel's friends soon. Very encouraging... but I think I had one from Daniel earlier this week. It wasn't Cardholder Services, but it sounded similar.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 You... You... You mean she's not a real person who genuinely cares about me and my financial situation? I am devastated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara H Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 You... You... You mean she's not a real person who genuinely cares about me and my financial situation? I am devastated. LOL! She had so much concern for so many of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DianeW88 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Good. I don't like Rachel...she called me a nasty name. Twice. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Can you imagine being the person who is the voice behind Rachel ???? I can't imagine the hatred that is spewed at her if she dares speak a coffee order at Starbucks. She has called my house so often that I think I could hear her in a crowded Walmart on Black Friday!

And, what about when Rachel picks up the phone and it is Rachel. Does she swear at herself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueridge Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I had one of her calls today. :tongue_smilie: Along with 5 political calls. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalanamak Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 You will not believe the political call I've gotten twice this week. It is a robocall with a couple of little dogs barking in the background. Not an amateur recording: on purpose to make you stay on the line a few seconds because you don't immediately sense the roboness and hang up. I want one of those buttons you push that BLOWS UP the machine on the other end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunnyDays Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I won't have a chance to miss Rachel for a while... not until after the elections... I'm getting at least five political calls a day. But it's nice to hear she'll have to find a new line of work. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravelingChris Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I am so happy but I guess my fifth time at the Do not call list finally worked. Rachel hasn't called me in a few months and neither has any other tele robot except one looking for a deadbeat who used to have my phone number.
