This is weird, but instead of a call, I received a "door hanger" at my house, with "important information enclosed" on the outside, and the phone number inside with "be ready to give your account number." I have no idea what this is about and I'm not calling. This was not a mail piece, someone left it on the door of my home. WTH?
