Received a call from Isaiah who identified himself with Herbal Groups. He asked for someone who lives in this house. When I asked what this was about, he responded that it was for a prior order. He gave the house number. He left this number as a call back. When I googled the name, a website came up indicating that this company was in California, not New Jersey.
I currently live out-of-province so I don't answer any phone calls that aren't in my Top 10 so I have no idea whether it's just a hang-up or if someone is on the other end. I've called my phone company (Telus Mobility) and they have permanently blocked the number, plus any additional numbers coming from that local area (it's pretty safe to say I'm not expecting any calls from Union City, NJ).
Not a huge inconvenience just annoying enough to have me call the phone company. I'd recommend everyone do the same.
To Mary with Verizon - having to call every 60 days to block a number for free? That doesn't seem right. You shouldn't have to pay for your privacy NOR should you have to inconvenience yourself at ANY measure to ensure the line is blocked. I'd call Verizon and ask for a supervisor immediately.
The call is from a weight-loss company website who offers some "dragonberry" pill. If you looked at their website or anything at all they will keep calling to do a followup.
