He claims to be a stockbroker. The first few times he called he claimed to be from John Thomas or Thomas John Financial and on subsequent calls he would not answer questions about what company he works for. He calls and acts like we're bosom buddies and makes refeerences to previous conversations we've never had. He has my name but I have an unlisted number. Very obnoxious and pushy. I strung him along to waste some of his time and he never broke character, even when I totally changed answers as to where I lived, etc. As the conversation went on he started asking me how much money I had in the stock market and whether I'd be willing to give him my social security number over the phone if we did business together. LOL! He's called me at least six times, always with a different telephone number. These are the numbers he's used. On 4 of the calls it was unknown but on two calls it was identified as John, Thomas Financial.

Person asked for my boss by his 1st name. He stated hi name is "Van @ John Thomas" I asked him what it is regarding, he said it is about a "Thing next week". I put him on hold came back and asked to take a message, He then asked for Gary's cel phone #. REALLY WEIRDO? Uh-uh...
Called asking for the owner of the company by his first name. I told him he wasn't in. He said "What's his cell phone number; I'll try him there." I said, "I can't give it out, but I can get him a message.". He got pushy and said, "But its Dan; he'll be expecting my call." Before I could reiterate that I would be happy to get him a message, he hung up on me.
This "Q Van from John Thomas" guy called me, too. Really obnoxious, too. Said my boss was expecting his call, then asked for my boss's cell phone number (as though I'm dumb enough to fall for that trick). (Didn't bother passing the message on...)
I just got a phone call from 212-452-5056 asking for my boss by name, he wasnt in and he wanted his cell phone number as well. I asked what this was in reference to and he stated he is a stockbroker in New York. After looking online to see if this was a legit business and seeing these posts, I decided to call the number back. I asked if this was so and so's number(I used a business name) and he said no, I asked who I was speaking with and he said his name is Van and this is a personal number. I then told him he had just call our company and to remove our company's number from his list.
