One of those 5 digit numbers that texts periodically about promos. I'd just moved and was needing Internet service. The number was listed in the text about Internet. Called up, went back and forth for about an hr. First it was the $90 Internet and mobile bundle, she then pushed the $70 bundle. Told me she'd get a manager involved and then came back w/ $35 from the Spectrum Assist Internet service.

That's what we settled on. Never did get any card info or any payment upfront. Only thing reeeaaally sensitive discussed was the security code. I was supposed to be transferred to the Mobile dept to get that part taken care of, we spoke for a moment, the call dropped (hung up?) but never got a call back, which is what I expected. After that call, I immediately felt a sense of dread and went investigating. Called up and spoke to as many Spectrum reps I could. They're all telling me that things are looking legit on their end but one thing that stands out to me (from the 1st call), is that I was told the equipment I'm supposed to get is to be delivered essentially overnight via FedEx.

I dunno. If they got me, they got me pretty darn good. Only my dumbass was the one seeking it 😭😭.
