I received a call from****-356-2953 at 12:45PM on 06/26/14. I didn’t recognize the number so I didn’t answer call. They didn’t leave a voice message.
(617) 356-2953 - June 26th, 2014 4:55pm
Do not call anyone back when you do not recognize the number. It lets the scammers know they have a good number and they can sell your phone number to other scammers. If someone wants to talk to you or it's that important - they will leave a message or call back. Have some smarts and will power NOT to call every number that calls you!!
(617) 356-2953 - June 26th, 2014 3:32pm
I got a call from this number at 9:51am on 6/26/2014. No message was left. I called back and it stated that no voicemail has been set up for this number. BTW, if you click into the "Leave a Comment" box after typing some text, all the text is cleared. Very annoying.
