   Not Buying It reported number ‎8002662278 as Wouldn't Identify Himself

   1/24/17, 11:31 AM

   A man called from this number and asked for me by name and asked me to give him my birthdate to "confirm" he was "speaking to the correct person." When I told him I was not going to give him any information he became very rude to the point of being belligerent. He said – and this is a direct quote, "I can't tell you who I am or give you any information until you give me your birthdate to confirm I'm talking to the correct person. That's federal law. Don't you know that?" When he said "Don't you know that?" he said it in a very condescending manner, so as to imply I must be stupid. I told him I wasn't giving him any information and that I didn't appreciate being insulted. He hung up on me. This is NOT Comcast and this person and his company are most definitely NOT legit. It could not be a debt collector because we have no debt; we have no outstanding balances anywhere and all of our regular bills are paid by automatic payment systems that come right out of our account. BEWARE. Oh, and we have no appointments scheduled with Comcast about which we would need reminding.

   You do not have to given any one your information. Even if Law Enforcement were to call, I would hang up and call them at their list number and address. There is no Federal saying you have to identify yourself before they do. What guarantee do you have if they give you a name it's real. Ask for a non toll free number to call back on (toll free numbers automatically get your phone number), and a address where he is physically sitting. Ask for a last name. Odds are you won't get any of this, hang up, keep track of the day and time. After the second call report them to your state Attorney General, they can trace the number and the exact person who placed the call. Tell the Attorney General you are being harassed. More than two harassing calls, hang ups, etc., constitute a stalker. The Attorney Generals investigation becomes public record.

   Got the call but shows as unknown number. You would think that Comcast would identify themselves or at least leave a message to confirm an appointment.

   I kept getting an audio WARNING on my pc about a virus. I would have to reboot to navigate. Stated it was a warning from Microsoft and I had to call because I could infect "their system". How ridiculous. Ran CC Cleaner and SAS and found some malware. No more warnings. I have blocked this number after rejecting 3 calls.

   A man just call me today 7/2/20 saying my ComcastXfinity is eligible fo 50% discount from $168 to $84 if I can pay 2 months instantly on the phone. I told him that Comcast office is just 5 minutes away from me and that I will go tho the office. He said this is just a promotional service that can only be done the phone, then I told him I am not interested knowing fully that it’s a scam with the usual scammers ascent.

    This is absolutely NOT Comcast. The number is being "spoofed". It's frustrating cause if you block the number you would be blocking a legitimate Comcast number which you might need sometime.
    
    But constantly "cold-calling" customers and leaving no vm message is not something done by a legitimate caller. Plain and simple.

    Almost Scammed reported Comcast with the number ‎8002662278 as Harassment calls

    8/14/18, 3:54 PM

    Just got a call from this number trying to get remote access to my computer. The number does come out as 800-comcast, BUT please understand that there are programs and hacks out there that can make it seem like it is comcast. If someone says that they are comcast and there is activity on your account and they continue to push you and rile you up making you panic just stop and slow down and think about what is happening. I was very close to allowing this Comcast Technician Manager to access my PC. They asked me to run a computer prompt window that went directly into my system 32. I am not an idiot I caught that right away. They also tried to have me run a program that allowed them to directly access my computer and have full control of my computer. No one should ever ask you that or tell you to do that. If you are concerned that there is something wrong with your computer call up the company themselves. Just to make sure. After he kept pushing me thinking it was an emergency I did not trust him and hung up. I was not going to let anyone access my computer that I wasnt full aware of myself. I hung up and we immediately called Comcast and told them what had happened. If there is no option for security for your internet on the automated menu go to internet issues and they will provide you with the information you need. We asked if there was any people trying to access my computer at 2am (which none of us were on at 2am) and they representative said no we do not show anyone trying to access your computer at 2am. After that she sent us to security and they double checked everything reassuring that nothing was happening. They also informed us that comcast would never ask you for access to computer remotely. They also gave us a lot of information about how scammers try to get you, like in this case. Just be aware don't let these scammers push you to make you worry. Just simply hang up and call your internet provider. The worst that can happen is you call your legit company and ask them if there is an issue. Only then will they tell you if there is or isnt an issue with someone trying to breech into your computer.

    7/25/18, 3:36 PM

    Robocall from (Comcast) "Xfinity Customer Experience Team" giving a detailed out-of-state address. Why?No legit company needs to provide their entire street address unless asked. The pitch: "You may be ELIGIBLE" to "upgrade your modem" and get faster internet speed thru "your service plan." "FREE" with "your account" = just pay "your usual modem fees." NO DETAILS about our current modem/speed or actual service plan. A cold call. Likely an attempt to "upgrade the modem" by remote access. Get our personal data/passwords. Then jam on identity theft malware. NEVER give remote online access to an unknown caller! Clearly a SCAM!

    If you substitute letters for numbers, this number spells 800-COMCAST which is indeed a valid number. What is most likely happening is that spammers are using a caller-id spoofer to substitute that number to hide theirs

    Scam artists. I've never had an account with Comcast, yet they were asking for payment. Asked them to provide me with identifying information from my account, I was informed that they didn't have any. Scam. Received a similar call from other 800 numbers.

    reply

    PDXITGirl replied 5/8/17, 5:00 PM

    Either it was a scammer posing as Comcast (and spoofing Caller ID), or someone who had your number before you does indeed owe them money. Or someone signed up for cable and used your phone number (either by mistake - one digit off - or on purpose).
    
    Point being, it might be a legit call, but for someone else.

    I am just going to let them call and never answer their call. It is annoying but I feel they will eventually quit calling. They have called me about the problems with channels I complained about and appointment made with a tech. They called about these a no. of times. So many calls were unnecessary. I don't know if they are being through or just annoying.
