Received a phone call from Name Not Found on caller ID on house phone. Phone # that called 202-141-1514 at 956 PM PST today 12 Sept 2016, I did not pick up and no message. It would be nice to have the individuals phones disconnected permanently.
Called at 7:30 am. Picked up without checking ID. recording of woman's voice saying "Enter a number followed by the pound key". I hung up and my phone immediately rang again. This time I check the ID and it's my own number calling! I let it go to voice mail. Was disconnected before my message was halfway through.
They called my work telephone and I was preparing to meet with the house insurance inspectors. I told them I would have to call them back. The first guy told me I had malware on my computer and I needed to write down a number to punch into my computer so he could fix it. I told him I already have a technical team so why is he calling? I asked for his name, he said Jack Smith. I said, "Really?!" (because he had a heavy accent and I am pretty sure his name is not Jack Smith. A 2nd guy took the phone from 'Jack' and told me the same stuff 'Jack' did. I asked him what is his name and the name of his company. He said, "Kevin Smith, and our company is E-Teck" I laughed and asked, "Are you and Jack brothers?" He said no. I told him I have a different security company and I have insurance people waiting to meet with me, so I need to call him back. He said they will call me whenever it is convenient for me. I told him, "No, what is your number?" He told me 202-141-1514. I called the number (with a 1 in front of it) back later and got an automated Verizon message, "Welcome to Verizon Wireless. Your call cannot be completed as dialed. Please check the number and try again."
