It's next to impossible to return items once you have fallen for this scam. I've found a fast and easy way to end these calls: let them get through their initial pitch about the new catalog and whatever seasonal special event that they are kicking off, then they always ask if I'm still using that 2" tape, same as ever, to which I respond "no, we're completely off tape here. We're exclusively using adhesives here." This confuses them enough to end the call. Feel free to use this non-sequitur next time they call, it's kind of fun.
Got harrasing call, called number given to be taken off list and they called me back twice after that trying to verify info and get names! DO NOT GIVE INFO OUT! THEY ARE SNEAKY SNEAKY SNAKES!
Got a call wanting to verify my mailing address. Was given incorrect address (one I've never used). Man insisted on getting correct address, when I inquired on the company name he said Dynatech. Mentioned they sold shipping supplies. When I started saying we we're convered in that area guy hung up on me without letting me finish. Have received this call before. NOT HAPPY.
10/16/09 Guy called asking for shipping and to verify address to ship dynamic ind tape. He requested a PO # or to use my name as verbal - when I asked who ordered the tape he immediately hung up on me. ****Big Scam****
Same thing, very rude, told me he was from DTI. When questioned further, he then told me he was from UPS. I was aware of the scam so I had some fun with it. I look forward to another call, it made my day.
