Tried to acces the website - www.frontpageplacement.net - to add my name to the do not call list others had mentioned. Of course the website now comes up as "Firefox can't find the server at www.frontpageplacement.net." What a surprise! Not!
A hint to you guys (and gals) when I'm getting these calls now I'll immediately interuppt them and say .. "I'm so glad you called!" After their shock I'll then continue that I'd be HAPPY to sell them my product - which obviously they wanted since they called me! If they try to interject I won't let them and just repeat their name over and over until they pause - at which point I keep selling MY product to them. So far I have found this gets you off their list pretty quick! And who knows, I might actually make a sale on their dime! LOL!
This scam is just so old and lame. Anyone who falls for it deserves to be scammed (and is so 'challenged' they probably won't be in business long anyway). Then there are those of us who are just regular homeowners who are getting called to update our google page or to get at the top of google. Like we are really going to fall for this scam!!!!!!!
4 out of 5 of my scam calls are about this right now. Criminals are pretty stupid.
Autodialer, recorded message: "Please press 1 to update your business listing....again, please press 1 to update your free internet business listing." No indication of what company or anything else.
Yet another long line of Google scams. I use software to block all inbound toll free numbers. For this number the scammers tend to use "INCOMING CALL" as the caller ID name. Set software to block any caller ID name using that phrase. This effectively blocks 1000's of telemarketers from getting through without knowing the numbers they call from.
