Actually this one is a "legit" business. The will call you credit card
companies and ask then to lower your interest rate. Apparently about 50%
of credit card companies will agree just for the asking. The business then
charges you about $500 for the "service". Of course you can call then
yourself for free!

I get these frequently as well and they always leave an automated message.
Having to listen to it and delete it is a nuisance.
