Woman with accent from [Something] Solutions wanted to speak with an employee (who doesn't work at this location) concerning market research. I explained that studies or surveys must be submitted in writing and offered the mailing address. She declined and hung up but phoned back two minutes later for another staffer (also not here). I reiterated the company policy, and she accepted the information. Hopefully, she stops after two calls; similar persons have refused to give up, thinking that the rules will change if they keep pressing.
The caller was a woman with an Indian accent who tried to start a survey.
"Hi [something], this is Nancy calling from [something] Solutions". She hung up 19 seconds into the call.
Man with heavy Indian accent asked for an employee; I asked him to repeat, and he asked to confirm that so-and-so works here. I asked him to ID himself (before giving out any info), and he said "Jonny" (name on Caller ID was "Jonny Webstar" [sic]). I asked what company he was with, and he said "(garbled) Solutions". I asked him to spell the first word, since he said it quickly, and with his accent, I couldn't understand. He said it again, and I still couldn't understand him, so he began to spell (quickly) "RAI...KING". I still couldn't understand, so asked him to please spell it slowly and clearly. At that point, he hung up. So, it is either "Rankin", "Ranking" or some other variation. Do not bother answering if they call, IMHO.
Phone ID reads "Rozy Lewis" from 631-206-5379. She also said her company was something "solutions," but her English was really bad and garble up. Just based on the past reports it looks like all of the people calling from his number speak poor English and is so garbled no one can understand them.
