Scam call

“Hello, this is Comcast Xfinity. This is a final advisory that the 50% discount on your monthly bill has been removed due to lack of response. If this is an error and you wanna keep the discount call back on the number showing on your caller ID immediately to correct it thank you…” +[Edited: "Malicious Phone Number"]

If you have gotten a call claiming to be from Comcast asking you to buy gift cards or paying upfront for six months or more in exchange for 50% off your bill the FTC is well aware of this scam.  If you get a call like this you can report it to:     https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/
The FTC also has a great webpage on Scams.  Please check it out as well.
For Target Gift Cards:
Call 1 (800) 544-2943 and follow Target’s instructions. 
Keep a copy of the Target gift card or your store receipt.
Please help to stop the spread of this kind of fraud.
Thanks!
