called asking for the owner by first name - saying she was Jennifer from Mike Rudeman's office. I explained the owner was busy and asked to take a message and she rudely said she would call back later. Oh Goody!
Said he was from IBS Chemical and he had spoken with our owner yesterday here in the office and was told to call him back this morning but "lost" his cell number. Well our owner has been on vacation all week so he didn't talk to him yesterday and we are a small company so I know who comes and goes. So I said I would have to have the owner call him as I didn't give out his personal cell number - before I finished he slammed the phone down. Do these people actually think they are going to get through and anyone would actually do business with them? Come on - with today's technology and sites like this?!?
Mike Evans from "IES Construction" called. Said he was confirming his appt so I mistakenly put him thru. It was a total scam. My boss booked him for a 9am appt. He didn't show up until after 11am. Then it comes out that he's with a consulting firm. He was told to leave and not come back.
