This number has called me incessantly for the last 4 weeks - at least 2x per week. The message they leave is: "This message is from Michael, I am calling on behalf of the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, or if I woke up when your request for more information about the university. Please return our call that 1(800) 544-2787 Thank you."
I never requested such information and finally called the 1-800 number today to be removed from the list. The operator asked me for my phone number and then my name and said she couldn't locate me on the list. She then asked me for my birth date which I was extremely reluctant to give her. "Why do you need that - I never even requested info so that shouldn't be in there?" I asked. Her response: "Well someone may have requested information using your name and phone number."

1. For-Profit Colleges: Targeting People Who Can't Pay:
I received a message from this number on my work voicemail twice this week. The person who left the messages used my name and stated she was calling from the Academy of Art in San Francisco and was calling to follow up on my request for information about the school. I've never requested such information, and I wonder how they got my name and my work nubmer.
