AT&T DIRECTV 50 Off Scam Calls - 844-217-6732

He offered a 50% promotional offer from AT&T/Direct TV partnering with Best Buy. Bill cut in half for 2 yrs ( 24 months), but first 3 months I had to pay full price up front. The catch was the first 3 months I had to pay with Best Buy prepaid cards.

Scammers. Once you are asked to pay with prepaid cards, it is a scam.

Received a call someone impersonating AT&T DirectTV telling me the can reduce my cost and gave me a code DTV48744 and number to call back 888-707-5806 after I was to buy a credit card ahead of time.

The scammer called (initially from 888-879-1756 number) my father, who is over 70 years old, and offered to give him a 50% discount on Direct TV service. They offered to also include several premium movie channels like HBO, Cinemax, Star, Showtime & American Hero for free. They required him to first go to Kroger, Wal-mart, or any retail store and buy 3 E-bay gift cards for $200 a piece ($600 total).

Then he was told to call 888-879-1281 & give the numbers on the face of the gift cards to the rep on the phone. My father felt that this was odd and called me. We called the number he was given and I asked questions about this promotion. The rep wanted me to give him my telephone number and when I wouldn't he quickly and abruptly ended the call. I believe this was someone trying to make money from my father fraudulently. Please check into this so no one falls victim to this scam. Thank you.

Called the number back that called. Answered with a recording that asked to press a # for the dept. you wanted. Promotions was connected to me, Guy told me that I would get reduced monthly bills. I had to pay with eBay gift cards, because AT&T partner with them to promote the offer tha their gift cards. Sounded good. Gave me a list of the stores close to me that had eBay cards. Got $500 in ebay cards from Rouses, called the number got a different call center person. He said before he took the card numbers, he wanted to make sure that the channels were added. Turned on TV, Showtime had been added, so has additional channels. Said OK now he would take the numbers on the cards. Hung up. Later I got a text saying there was problem with eBay. He would reimburse these cards, get 3 larger denomination and call back. I should have stopped there,but got taken for another $480... Of course these numbers would not go into the system would send a check to reimburse, but would need more cards. NOW! the light finally dawned on me. SCAM. Checked with ATT and changed pin and security code. Showtime had been added, They removed it and flaged my account. Just feel stupid!

Called from 855-705-0708 claiming to give 50% off Directv for either 3 years -$83.99 monthly after buying a Best Buy Prepaid GiftCard for $420.00 upfront prepayment for 5 months, then $83.99 for the rest of 31 months. if I paid the upfront $420.00 with the Prepaid Best Buy Card on the same day, then I was eligible for a $150.00 Visa Card.
They even sent an email to my Hotmail account, detailing this offer, from info- dtvpromotionsdepartment.com, on a letterhead looking like the home page of AT&T, with further details available by calling the billing and promotions department (855) 705-0708 ext. 1... To ensure email delivery add directv-directv.com & directv-cm.directv..com

A guy or a female calls and says I am eligible for up grades or 50% off service fees. When you confront them they hang up.

I have let it go to voice mail and call back. It is not the AT&T music so you know it is a fraud. I spoke with one man at one time who kept saying that he is in Dallas at their office and he could reduce my bill. He asked for my account and when I said he called me and offered the deal in the beginning, he should have all of that. If you confront them, they hang up.
