I received a call from a woman who stated she was calling from DirecTv’s loyalty department. She was talking extremely fast and hung up even faster. I called DirecTv to verify and they advised that they did not try to contact me.

I was told I was eligible for a DirecTV promotion through amazon, if I purchased a $300 amazon gift card and used it to prepay my DirecTV bill for 3 months that my rate would drop to 59.99/ month for 2 years. I just had to call back their promotions and billing department and give them the gift card number

I was scammed by a Directv impersonator claiming if I prepaid for 5 months with an amazon gift card of $250, then I could get two years of Directv service at a lower rate of $49.99 per month. the caller is spoofing the caller ID so that it routes in to your phone from the Directv number. When you call back the main number of Directv, you will be told the promotion is a scam. they give you a promotion code dtv1097 and tell you to call billing department at 1-888-301-9087, this number is scam also and is not directv. they will know your name, address, billing number, and even have billing information about your recent activity. They claim to also be sending you a visa gift card for $100. they claim to be giving you at no extra charge, NFL Sunday Ticket and the HBO package of premium channels at no extra charge also. They claim their phone number is not listed on the company website because they are a promotional arm of ATT and not the main company.
