Ok, so at first I thought it was my Obachan ( Japanese grandmother) but then by what she said I knew it was not my Obacha. She ased for my mother by first name, my mom wasnt home. she asked "when will be the bast time to call?" I responded "I don't know." so she then replied with "Okay I will call back later."
Next time she calls I'm just going to answer it and begin speaking Japanese, that would mess her up SOO BAD hahaha.
Please be careful doing that....you may end up giving them someone else's actual credit card number and that poor person will have to deal with fraud and unapproved charges!! That happened to me. Plus, it may come back to bite you if they investigate or press charges since the sales company has your name and phone number--the authorities could connec/link you with the fraud as well! Just saying it's probably better to not engage with the sales call people.
I just received a missed call on my cell from 971-208-9936 but they didn't leave a message. I have no idea who it is, but I don't answer if I don't know who it is. If it's important, they should leave a message.
This number calls my Cell phone at all times and hangs up when I answer. I would love to meet this person in real life and hang up my phone on their head and pull the trigger! so sick of it! They have no rights calling my cell phone! A holes...... I want this to stop!
@Gary - OHM - I have had the same exact thing happen to me. The sell the number list over and over and over again. I get so pissed off. When I actually do get a person (always foreign) I ask them "If this is an online pharmacy then why are we on the phone? Why are you calling me if you are "online?" And they try to tell me they are running a "special sale." I still ask then why are you calling me, why aren't you sending me an email? No answer...I always tell them the same thing - look if I want to buy drugs on line I'll get on line and do that - stop calling me!
I got one of these calls this afternoon. It's been a personal policy of mine for years that if a dialing machine calls me, I don't take the call. Caller ID is a wonderful thing. You always know its a machine because there is a long pause from the time I say "hello" until someone comes on the line. Or, and this one really burns me up, a recording asks ME to HOLD! And this applies to any reputable firm, such as collection agencies. How very arrogant of companies to call with a machine and then ask YOU to hold for THEM! Like your time is not as valuable as theirs. They don't want to hire more people to make the phone calls, it lowers their profit margin. So they arrogantly put the onus on me to wait for THEM! It will never happen! If everyone would do that, these low-life's would be forced to have warm bodies make the calls.
