Type of a scam Phishing
This number called our office phone. When I answered, I realized it was an automated message. It said that because I had stayed at Marriott Hotel location that I had won something. I had pushed "0" multiple times to speak to a person to get taken off the call list. A man picked up asking, "Are you 40 years or older?" I had politely said "hello, please take us off of your call list." The man replied "I invite you to shut the [censored] up, please." The man had an middle eastern accent and I could hear many keyboards and other people in the background, not to mention that the call quality was iffy. This is not the first time that I have gotten a call exactly like this. The man sounded exactly the same as last time: same accent, same voice, same demeanor, same rudeness, same vulgar, and insulting vocabulary. Also, both times, the inflection was so monotone that it seemed as if the man (or men if it was a different person than before) were reading from a script. I later hung up.

Type of a scam Travel/Vacations
This scammer has been calling me for over a year now. Always using different numbers. They say it’s either Hilton or Marriot and I’ve won a stay at the hotel. I have blocked every number that calls and still they get new numbers and continue to call me. It is plain old harassment at this point. I don’t really know what to do at this point but I’m tired of it.
