Spam Phone Call

["Jerry C. Adams" <midrange@xxxxxxxx>]

All of us have, probably, gotten emails that claim our bank account has been
shutdown for one reason or another, and that we need to log in to reactivate
it.  Often it references a ban at which we do not even have an account.  I
know I get at least one of these every week.

 

Well, this weekend I got a call on my cell phone during which an obviously
pre-recorded message said that my credit union account was shutdown.  As you
might guess, I don't have such an account.  Another strange thing about the
call is that the caller id was simply "2000", not an area code and phone#,
which usually displays for a caller unknown to me.

 

Just wondered if anyone else has encountered this sort of thing, and what
the proper, recommended response would be.  I thought about filing a
complaint with the FCC, but what information would I be able to give them?

The call is still on my "Recent Calls" log, but again all it says is "2000".

 

Thanks.
