They called my cell and asked to speak to someone in my household over 18 about a subject that happens to be part of the industry I work in. I said I was at dinner and hung up. The only 2 place my cell number and what I do for a living would show up together is on LinkedIn and an abbreviated version on Facebook. I don't even think this is a telemarketer, I think its an identity theft scammer.
Predatory business practices by research survey scammers out of the 239 area code. Search leads to http://www.bizapedia.com/fl/THROUGHBRED-RESEARCH-GROUP-INC.html then eception in action by these cowards, http://www.torinc.net/ without a bizapedia reference.
They keep calling and only once left a msg. wanting me to take a survey on my smoking habits here is Colorado, they have called about 6 times now at all times of the day and late evening. I don't answer nor call them back I was actually surprised they left a msg.
Received call on caller ID. Showed up as Thorough-bred Research.
