Imagine receiving a call from an unknown number that claims to be from a bank or debt collector, yet offers no clear identification. When faced with this, don’t share personal information and hang up if the caller refuses to name their company. Log the call details—time, number, and any recorded script—to help report the incident to the FTC or your state’s consumer protection agency. Consider adding the number to your phone’s block list and enable caller‑ID verification services. If you suspect a legitimate debt, contact the creditor directly using a verified phone number, not the one that called you.
Evidently, this gentleman seems to have ties with the company responsibile for these calls alot
During one day, I recieved 5 calls from this number, sinc I am behind in my finances, I asumed it was a collection call, but they never left a msg, wich is strange.

Due to my current financial situaton, I'm recieving numerous calls from collectors and was wondering if someone could confirm if this number is indeed World Financial Network National Bank, as one of my store cards is affiliated with them and I beleive it might be them calling
Today, I received an automated call from an unrecognized number on my cell phone, featuring a woman with a British accent who claimed it was not a sales call, but I was skeptical.
Upon returning the call, I was greeted by a voice menu identifying the caller as World Financial Network National Bank, which I have no affiliation with, and despite having excellent credit and no outstanding debts, the calls persist, suggesting a clear case of scamming.
Similar experiences have been reported, with multiple calls received over a short period without any messages left, indicating a likely spam or scam scenario.
Following a call from this number, I started receiving several creepy calls from different numbers, which I chose to ignore.
A woman requested payment arrangements from my checking account, which I explained was not possible at that moment, leading to a heated discussion.
