I searched on the internet and found some info about thus number:
Spartan Capital Holdings
45 Broadway At Exchange Pl
New York, NY 10001
(212) 293-0116
These are low life brokers from NYC drumming up business. The MO is they buy client lists from other low life stock brokers/companies ie Gunn Allen & Co. then make cold calls promising the moon, stars and wealth. They have been calling me on my work phone which I'm about to put on the do not call list. Next time they get reported. The fines for calling start at about $50k. Looking forward to busting these jerks!
This morning, 4/7/2009, at approximately 8:45 a.m., PST, a gentleman called for Mr. Langton. As the Legal Assistant, I am instructed to SCREEN ALL INCOMING CALLS to this office for Mr. Langton. The man identified himself as "Nick" from Capital Financial. Our telephone system has caller ID and, therefore, I was able to obtain the number, google it, and found there have been many, many complaints about this call. The person who identified himself as Nick was the rudest person I've ever talked to on the telephone. He will never be put through to Mr. Langton as we never put calls of this nature, (persons who refuse to identify their business with Mr. Langton).
Yes, I just had one of these calls - he aasked for mike, one of our owners who never takes calls in the office. I said he didn't work here, and hung up - we get plenty of these calls each week. He immediately called back and said "did you just hang up on me?" I said yes, and he said "[***] you don't have any idea who I am. I'm going to call Mike on his cell - I don't give a [***] about you..." He asked my name and said he was calling him...Until I googled the number I didn't know what to think.
I just received a call from 212-293-0116, the caller was asking for our Company President by first name only. When I asked his name he said Jack and that he was returning my employers call (which I knew was a crock). When I told him that the President was in yet, he hung up. Totally rude!
