    Default Hi this is Rachael from card member services......

    So they called me for the 1000th time. I pressed one, and proceeded to give the a spill about how this number is being tracked, and that he is being recorded. The guy on the other end broke down and said he was from Pakistan, and the company was a scam. He claimed he was being enslaved, and that they took his passport along with the passports of the other people there, (according to him Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, and Mexico, he claimed 200 total) He gave me a number for the main office, but said he had only been there 3 days which he hadn't been allowed to leave. He said his location was in Atlanta,Ga. He then begged me for help saying that they were threatening to turn him in as a terrorist if he didn't continue to work. I just said if you call this number again we will be forced to take action, and you will be involved. He was crying in the end, and I hear this lady talking in the background, and he said he had to go...Over all conversation was around 10 minutes.. Mostly me trying to pick him for more info. What would you do? The number he gave me was 1800-847-2911. I feel bad for the guy, but, in reality I hope they never call my number again. I was getting awoke at 6am on weekends, or they would call while I am with clients etc...
    Thanks,
    R

    File a complaint on the National Do Not Call list website and give them all of the info you gathered. There isn't much else you can do beyond that.

    He probably came here with negative intentions (for the average American, or American taxpayer). Shit happens.

    If he came here with the best of intentions, he would be scott free and they wouldn't have any leverage over him. Fuck you, turn me in! Why would a normal person say anything but that when trying to be enslaved?

    Why wouldn't you walk away at the airport when you get off the plane?

    Sounds like you think he was telling the truth? (Sounds like he may have been?) You could call a non-emergency number for the Atlanta PD.

    The government treats these scam artists just like they do the southern border. Nada, zip, zilch, zero action.

    You sound like you were expecting them to know something about the crazy person that called?
