Ever wonder why that unfamiliar number keeps popping up with promises of lower credit‑card rates? It’s likely a generic telemarketing script—automated, vague, and designed to create urgency. These calls often masquerade as debt‑relief offers, but they rarely disclose a legitimate company name, and the “interest‑reduction” claim is a classic bait. If you receive such a call, let it go to voicemail, note the number, and cross‑check it on a reputable spam‑lookup site. Block the number on your carrier’s app, and consider using a call‑filtering service. Report persistent spam to the FTC to help curb future nuisance calls.
