The problem is NOT solved until we get rid of the callers. Remember the bombing of the twin towers? We ignored it and brushed all observations of possible suspects under the carpet, until they CAME BACK and flew airplanes into the building.
I have reported this SAME company with the SAME recorded voice that claims to be the "Political Survey Groups" to be removed from calling lists even though my CELL phone is on the do not call list. But they keep calling! The voice sounds similar to a voice from the Free IPAD scam posted on faux "Facebook" sites where "Facebook" is spelled wrong. I remember humoring the "contest" by signing up just to see where the contest would lead. It leads to a continuous bait and switch scheme where you constantly have to sign up for 3-5 additional company mailing lists whose requirements ask you to join more mailing lists whose requirements ask you to join more and more.
I received the call from the so-called "Political Survey Group" at 9:30 am on Sunday , February 19, 2012.
Once, about two months ago, I received a live call from a live person from a similar survey group whose questions were all about illegal immigration. The questions were different and the voice was different, so I assumed it was from a different company.
When you answer the call from this number (and all similar calls from this same company with the same voice) you hear a recorded message:
"You were called to participate in a survey, and now the survey time has expired. If you would not like to participate in any future surveys press '1' now." This message is repeated once.
After pressing "1" you receive the following message:
"Thank you for your time; you're phone number will be permanently removed from our list."
This message is repeated 2 more times.
There are several phone numbers associated with this sames company with the same prerecorded message.
The survey voice is female. The remove the phone number voice is male.
Possibility:
I know of a telemarketing scam that targets the elderly. The workers were young people hard up for a job that have no remorse. I saw the owner come into the company once. He had a limo, a beard and sunglasses, and wearing a turban and a suit. Wouldn't it be great if racial profiling were actually specific enough to include facial hair, color of hair of their wife and type of dog or car they own? Here is the profile:
The look was classic for American nontraditional Muslim tycoon or rich unorthodox Jew. Do not do business or work for anyone with a beard that looks like this. Forget about skin color; be suspicious of anyone who rides in a limo! There is a limo owner who visits Israel and spies on his workers in Las Vegas. Possible Zionist? With several complaints from his hotel patrons, who are scammed to pay bogus unrefundable "resort fees", his hotel is called
Americana 5 Inn
5201 Dean Martin Drive,
Las Vegas,NV,89118
(702) 739-9513
He was in trouble in January of 2010 with either taxes or BBB (sorry I cannot remember.)
Another profile to put on your black list are hotels and restaurants that do not support their local community. Look up events in your area and see if that Chain store, Fast Food joint, Indian hotel, gas station or Chinese restaurant supports local events. If they don't, do not do business with them!!!!
