DIRECT TV SCAM

Consumers beware I just got a call from 877-368-1845 and 877-310-1095 asking to call in to get a 50% discount if you buy EBAY gift cards.  I confirmed with Direct TV this is a SCAM.  DO NOT CALL BACK if you get this call about any discount.  Have reported all the numbers to the FCC.

That scam has been going on for 2+ years. On screen notices were given to warn people. Paying up front, requiring gift cards (untraceable like cash), and 50% off (way too huge a discount) are the red flags.

FCC most likely cannot do anything as these scams tend to originate overseas, so outside of America's jurisdiction.
