This was to get a discount on Spectrum, paying only $170 per month for TV, Internet, phone. To get this you had to pay 6 months in advance of $1,020.00 which can be paid by Target Credit Card or go to Target to purchase $1,020 in Target Gift Cards then call them at (855) 305-1525 (supposedly this number was Spectrum billing and finance) and give them the gift card numbers. If you within 4 hours you would get a $150 gift card otherwise only had 24 hours to get the promotion with Target Credit Card or Target Gift Cards.

He claimed he worked for Spectrum and they had a new discount of 50% off my current plan price, I just needed to pay 6 months up front. I thought everything checked out until he mentioned that I needed to go buy a "Target" gift card and use that to pay the 6 months bill. At that time I realized it was a scam and hung up the phone.

I got a call from +1 (209) 794-9191 “Dear customer this voicemail is to inform you that spectrum is removing the 40% discount offer on your monthly bill to reactivate this offer right now. Please call back on the number you see on your caller ID”

I call them back, this guy offers me “what everyone is getting offered” - offer below:

50% off my monthly bill ~$40ish

$40 a month for 1 year, must be paid lump sum $480

Then, years 2 & 3 are paid monthly on a per monthly basis of $40

if I pay the $480 within 24 hours I get a $100 Visa card

the guy on the phone said something about going to target and getting $480 WORTH OF GIFT CARDS PAY THE $480 SUM BECAUSE THEY ARE PARTNERED WITH LEADING RETAILERS???? <- biggest red flag

Once the guy proceeded to charge me $6 to sign up for the offer, he asked me to check my bank to see the $6 charge - BUT HE USED A BANK I DONT HAVE ANYMORE so I said forget this, don’t sign me up. I then got a call from +1 (855) 602-1828 claiming to be the boss man saying since I accepted and then declined they will go ahead and charge me $300 and then $200 for a total of $500 AND cancel my internet for 2 weeks unless I call back to sign up.

Missed a phone call and left a VM, called back and it was a mostly convincible sounding call center for Spectrum, had the different department choices, had similar Spectrum "on hold" music with promotional interjections, etc. They had our exact billing amounts, stated that the $40 promotional offerwas ending due to a withdraw/ending of a government program but were offering a 50% discount on services for 3 years, no contracts, but the first year had to be billed and paid up front. They provided a reference number and a 1-888 # to call the billing dept and complete to steps of the promo. Next they sent me supporting email and text. The email said Spectrum but came from a non spectrum email address, and the text sent through my phone created a new chat chain under a friends number and not the random 4-5 digit short number that Spectrum usually uses. I told the caller that I'd love to be in the program, but that I'd call the main Spectrum 800# number and ask for the billing dept to complete the promo. Spectrum verified that its a VERY elaborate scam and then I found the report of a similar case on ScamPulse.com site.

I was called by a "Spectrum agent" who stated they were running a 24 hour promotional deal. Pay 510 in the for of two target gift cards (255 each) and they paid the April bill (which it shows they did but when I contact the real Spectrum they stated it was a scam and would not clear the pending status) the NO payment for 6 months and a flat rate of 85 bill for the next three years. They emailed a contract to me and I received a text confirming April bill paid/ Then they called back today and stated that there was a problem with Walgreens and the cards wouldn't go through the stated I need to purchase another pair of 255 and the would send me a reimbursement check plus a 100 gift for my trouble. I knew then it wasn't right.

A person by the name of Tyler Belfort posed as a Spectrum Sale Agent. He was offering me promotion on my Spectrum service. He wanted me to buy (2) target gift cards and call the Spectrum Customer Service phone number he provided to get a discount offer on my Spectrum service. I didn't do that and I told him this is a scam. He got real mad and told me they were going to turn off my service and charge me a fee. Out of spite he somehow was able to get submit a payment of $299.00 against my Spectrum Account. I believe the transaction went through because I had automatic payment. That was so strange. I contacted Spectrum and my bank - Chase and advised them of this scam. The phone number he provided had the voice message like it was Spectrum. I want to report this because I want you to be aware of this scam.

I received a phone call from a company saying they were from Spectrum. They said they were running a promotion with Target. I needed to buy 2 Target gift cards, at $315 each. I could use these for payment. When I called to use them, they gave me an authorization code which identified this particular promotion. I did see that that amount was reflected on my bill. They said that the February bill would be credited toward my overall bill. I got the first text message confirming a portion of the gift card was applied, and my Feb. bill w[censored]d out. But then I got a text message, today, saying that the payment was declined.

Claim he was from Spectrum and offer spectrum for 40.00 a month for three years. The first year needed to be paid 480.00 up front with a Target credit card or Target gift cards., and they had partnered with Target to make this happen. They sent me an invoice, (nothing I would think Spectrum would send out) I have a copy.

1 (833) 838-1038 was used as "billing department". They somehow made an early payment on my actual Spectrum account using only my email, home address, phone number, and name. Normally Spectrum asks for this information to verify I am the account owner as well, so it didn't seem out of the ordinary to provide this info to them. They seemed super legit and I didn't catch on they were a scam until much later. They then tried to charge me $300 for "backing out of the deal". They wanted me to buy $420 of Target gift cards to send to them as part of a joint Target+Spectrum deal. I spoke to Sam Cartilage, extension 769. They even gave me an "authorization code" to verify with the billing department. He then said if I completed the payment within 50 minutes they would give me a $50 visa gift card. The man on the phone sounded 20-40 years old, and had an Indian accent.

The caller identified themselves as a representative of Spectrum. We had just called the actual Spectrum Company the day before asking if there were any promotions to lower the cost of our tv and internet bill. This person told us there was a promotion whereby we could lower our bill by half for three years, but we had to pay the first 6 months in advance using Target gift cards. They actually had the correct amount of our bill in their records. They told us if we paid the $600 in Target gift cards within the next 2 hours we would receive a $60 Visa gift card in the mail. We agreed to the set up, but called Spectrum to verify there was an offer. Turned out, our hunch was right. We just want others to know, so they don’t get dipped into spending $600 they don’t have!
