I own a cleaning service in Washington. These people are continually calling my business phone stating the same as most of the above. They started trying to sell me an answering service. They even went as far as to leave a rude message on my phone, ‘pretending’ to be a rude customer that was mad because I didn't answer the phone. Next they said that I would get a month of free advertising… But they couldn’t explain where it would be placed. They seem to have several different numbers, including 775-562-4611. They all have very heavy accents and most of what is said you cannot understand. I was asking them to stop calling, I was trying to be polite in the beginning… What I have done is to put them in my phone ID as "DO NOT ANSWER". This way I can keep track of their calls easily for future reference and Also, This way - I know not to bother with answering the calls. Hopefully they will get tired of clling my number - if I never answer it.
Have received several of their calls asking for the owner by his first name only. Refused to identify themselves or the nature of their call. Only those soliciting phone sales are this vague about themselves.
I am sure the call was Ad agency as noted above. I had just posted a public classified ad to sell my services. There are some desparados out there. 212 is a usually affiliated with NYC (Manhattan). I WISH THERE WAS A WAY I COULD BLOCK THE CALL FROM MY PHONE. Any ideas?
