These phone calls are product of all the surveys that I make, some days ago my hubby got angry with me because my phone rang and I was only saying Yes, yes, yes, because the person in the other side was telling me that I won a gift card of 100 dollars and then was asking or confirming my address because he already have it because i give my personal information in the surveys, when my hubby saw that I was just saying yes, yes, he took the phone for me and I told him that it was a gift card but I knew that it was like always a LIE where they tell me that I won something and ask confirm my personal information to ask me about my credit card or debt car wich thanks God I dont have, well he took the phone and saied no thanks, and hung up, today I received another of that kind of phone cals and when he asked a lot of things about me and ot to the point of my credit or debt car and saied that I don't have he simply hang up on me, that was a very unpolite it means that if I don't have cads I don't desire anything, but I know that they are scam and want my info to steal my money. what do you about giving your info in the surveys.?

Well for one thing you aren't required to give personal information out. So therefore you're doing this to yourself and personally I don't feel the least bit sympithitic twards you because of the amount of phone calls you're recieving. Your husband was right to take the phone and say "no" because you are letting them invade your life. And, they can do far more with your personal information then just call you. Consider it a bit of a blessing that no one is u using your information to take your idenity. Because that's becoming a more common crime and people like you, who give information to what they think are legitimate causes... are really setting themselves up to have that information stolen.
I'd stop doing survays, or only do survays through trusted legitimate sources (such as your workplace) or something like that.

There are phone calls like those all the time, indeed. One has to be very careful with those kinds of calls, marketing, adverising, fakes, and so on. Survey calls are some times nothing but trying get personal information for their beneifits only.
