Description

received unsolicited phone message claiming to be Xfinity / Comcast to report my service would soon expire, then proceeded to give me fantastic deal of 36 month contract for combined internet and cable TV for $30 per month. As closer he (Ross - extn 831) said I should pay $540 down for first 18 mos as part of this PROMO that was SPONSORED by Target. I asked why I was not told of this offer March 3 when I contacted Xfinity/Comcast and "Ross" said this was new promo. He was perturbed that I said I would return call in 1-2 hours after speaking with Direct TV offer on table. When I returned call he was NOT available - when they DID answer call (3 of 5 calls were not answered). Then I checked Phone # and knew they were scam.
