User reviews for 800-462-5842

These fumb duckers from Indeed keep calling me asking me to provide them my credit card number so that they can open my business account with them. I told them I don't have any account with them and I am not a business yet these fumb ducks still insist on getting my credit card. I have blocked their number and they call from another number with the same scamming tactics. Can't wait till they are arrested for their crimes and leave honest people like me alone. All I want is a little piece and quiet.

phuck wads from india pretending to call from austin, needs my credit card number real quick to complete some background check or something like that

These rat bass turds call here all the time telling me they need my credit card number because they are going to do a background check on me for an application I filled out with them. First of all I'm 7 states and 2 time zones away from these scamming thieves in Austin, TX. Secondly I retired in1997 from my one and only job my whole life and have never filled out an application for them or anyone for that matter. These rat bass turds had the nerve to tell me well let's get your credit card number anyway because if we have it on file and you decide to go back to work, we will get you approved first since you were kind (dumb) enough to give us your card info.

A scammer claiming he needed my credit card to background check my application so I could get hired. I told him I never applied and he then said he works for indeed and I have applied to work for them and I must pay him in order to get the job. Again I told him I didn't apply anywhere (I'm 76 yr old) and in fact don't even do that online job search because I'm retired. He pressed in one more time telling me I won't get the job unless he can charge $59.99 to my card for a back ground check. Obviously just a scammer hoping job seekers will pay him for nothing.

azz hats from india pretending to be able to fix your microsoft with a credit card number. i told them i don't have a microsoft, i use a computer instead........without missing a beat this fumb ducker said will give me your credit card number because we can fix those too.
