I had a similar call on my home number. When I asked for the name of the company I was told the Vehicle Processing Department, which of course does not exist. They also knew what cars I owned and when I asked how they obtained my number and such detailed information the caller/telemarketer told me it was given to him by his computer. I then asked to speak to his supervisor since my family and phone numbers are on a no-call list, and that they were potentially breaking the law. I was put on hold and amazingly a "supervisor" was on the line. Clearly he was a different person but had a similar accent (ie non-native). When I pursued the question he finally said that he would strike my name off the list and promptly disconnected the call.
What I find disturbing about this is that they used this number which was detected by my phone as coming from the neighboring town in Connecticut, and with children in school I generally pick up local calls.
The number is maintained by Level 3 Communications according to information on the internet. I believe this has nothing to do with the car company I use as other manufacturers are mentioned on other message boards. It would be nice to prosecute them one way or another.
I got a call at my cell phone and someone start telling me that my car warranty expired and they was calling from the warranty company to renew it, when I asked which company he pretend he did not hear me and continue talking out loud, then had to scream at him that my warranty was fine at this point he hanged up. When I called back I got a voice mail saying " thanks for calling our office is closed call back Monday Through Friday 8:00 am to 4:00 pm... " and then the line goes dead.
