Call comes in as a 'Collect call from Fernando in the Substance Abuse center of Cochran Correctional facility". Fernando, asked to talk to an individual, we told him that person is unavailable, how can we help? He said he had a question but would not tell us the question. He called 8 times last week and about 14 times today before we took the call and told him to stop calling here and ***g up.

I didn't answer the call. Prior to receiving it, I had reached out to someone on Craigslist regarding a room, only to discover it was a scam. The Craigslist number was 310-924-6798, which appears to be****ociated with ****** services in Los Angeles. I recently got a new phone number and never encountered scam calls before, so I suspect they are related.

GTL is faking that a prisoner is calling you but it is them just trying to c****e you for no one calling you! SCAM.!!! My friend was in prison and when he called, I could CLEARLY him saying, to accept the call and he said his name. That is all they would allow. This GTL Company must be hurting for money. Once you accept, you won't get your money back. GTL is scamming now!!!
(713) 568-6986 - February 5th, 2022 10:35pm
The recording says it's a collect call from a prison in CA and the inmate's name is mumbled so you can't really hear it and the last name sounds like Williams. I don't know anyone with that last name or who is still living in that state or anyone who is in prison, so it's just inmates trying to get my credit card info or a jailhouse jingles scam.

It said it was a call from a prison in texas. It was a free call so we accepted. The person on the other side said his name was trigger, he called my girls number and asked her who she was and then proceeded to act like he new her she kept asking were he got her number but kept avoiding the question and then asked her were here boy _____ was and thats my name. I dont know a trigger in a prison in texas. The phone number comes out to be registered to a G. Houston . My question is does the prison use random telemarketing numbers when allowing those free first arrive at a prison phone calls?

Sounds like a prison/correctional facility call. I don't know anyone who's incarcerated, in TX, CA, or any other state. Other people have said it's just a scam to get your credit card info, probably true.

It's not a spam call it a new system that the prisons use for inmates to call people . You pay global tel link (who are located in a different state) and the inmates are allowed to call without being collect. Even though you still pay for the calls , it's actually cheaper than it being collect. Hope this helps
