these jerks call me several times a week, always claiming they are working for a major real estate firm in the area, but refuses to tell me who, next call it is a publication for property managers, then it is a referral to general contractors, always can hear a telemarketing boiler room in the background. have told them I am on the DNC, and they laugh one told to go do something to my self that is physically as well as anatomically impossible, such losers
Got a message from "Daniel" calling on behalf of the "Kid Street Learning Center" and said they are "working on a project for the students, and wanted to get me involved". Caller ID showed 971-205-1709 from Beaverton, OR (I am in California), but asked me to call back 800-962-2587 x 1043. Can hear others leaving messages in the background. Sounds like a scam to me!!!

The Vermont Attorney General’s Office is warning Vermont businesses about a phone call or email from an out-of-state business asking the local business to donate money to support the area school by paying for an advertisement that that they will place on a full-color homework folder that will be provided to students free of charge. The out of state business is trying to collect money from local businesses far in excess of the cost of the “folders” that it may actually deliver to the school. Businesses are advised to be wary about contributing to this type of promotional scheme.
There may be more than one out- of-state business using this scheme. Some business names currently being used are “PNM”, Production Network Media, and “PMC”, Production Media Company. Previously, “American Youth Group” and “Student Relations Inc.” have used this scheme to raise money.
If your business has been a target, please make a complaint to the Consumer Assistance Program. You may use the on-line complaint form on our website, www.uvm.edu/consumer or send a written complaint to the following address: Consumer Assistance Program, 146 University Place, 103 Morrill Hall, UVM, Burlington, VT 05405.
