Should I File a Complaint?
If you are getting harrassing calls from this number, the answer is yes.
By filing a complaint, you are making the nature of the calls known to more people, including the caller. The more complaints a certain number receives, the more exposure it gets. This helps make the calls stop by reducing the efficiency of the caller's operations. Also, when a certain number receives a lot of complaints, we investigate the matter and report the number to the proper authorities.

Im getting calls on my cell phone giving the test messsage 9099 important to call. So after about the 4th time I called the number entered my card number in with a fake expiration date and fake 4 digit code they asked for. After I did that it said your card has been verified. Well, it shouldnt of been since it is not fake. Unless they will try and figure out the true expiration date.
Several calls asking for response. I have no cu west account.
Got a text from this number to call CU West. Got several texts of this nature but from 303 area code several weeks ago. Am supposed to have text messaging blocked on my phone, so will be calling Sprint. Seems to be all Sprint users reporting this problem - - are they selling our phone numbers???
I called the number and it asked for my credit card number, there is no way to reach an operator. I tried putting in a fake number and the message just repeated to enter my credit card number.
Keeps sending text messages regarding CU West account. I have no such account--they are obviously fishing for information.
Received the following text message at 7:30 AM: "C. U West. Please call us at 1-480-717-4914 regarding restrictions placed on your account." I dont have an account with CU West.
This caller attempted to report a restriction placed on a non existant account and asked for a return phone call to discuss.. These people are frauds and scamsters...
Left message saying to call them, then message disappeared from my phone I did not call.
received text from 9099 to call number above regarding my account. this is same person from 303 325 7300.
Text messages recd on Sprint cell phone. Scammer says that they are from Co-op Credit Services and advises that my debit card has been deactivated. They provide a number to call (last number referenced was 480-717-4914) to call to have the card reactivated. Recd txt once before from scammer indicating that they were also from Co-op Credit Services (referenced ph# 734-443-3003). Called that number and when the recording requested me to enter my 16 digit card number, I hung up the phone (obvious scam). I have 4 debit cards. Co-op never once indicated which card it was that was supposedly deactivated.
Text message received on Sprint from 9099 number indicating: Citizens Community Bank Alert - unusual activity: 480 717 4914 . Upon calling this 480 717 4914 number, it prompts to enter a 16 digit credit card number and press #. after entering many different 16 digit numbers and pressing #, the system loops every time. Pressing 0 # does nothing. Obviously a spam.
