Clever jerk. He called asking for the name of someone who hadn't paid their bills, you know, three years ago. Then once he realized he had an old number (really? do people who don't pay their bills pay their phone bill?), switched to the fraternal order of the police scam.
I get this phone calling me up to 5x a day. Always rude if we happen to answer, but will never leave a message. I am recovering from surgery & definitely DO NOT NEED to be woken up by these phone calls!!
They somehow got a hold of my cell phone and house phone and keep calling me telling me I owe money to some flower shop that has my info on file. The supposed shop is two hours away from me and I've never heard of them. Although when I spoke to a woman (named Shannon) she let me know she's calling on their behalf and would remove my number. But they keep calling my house though.
I've been getting calls from this number up to 4 times a day!! I don't answer because I don't know the number - but I'm assuming it's a telemarketer or fundraiser of some kind. Very annoying because they call LATE and EARLY in the morning - no times are off limits for this number. I'm on the Do NOT Call list but it comes through - as long as the number can come up on Caller-ID with an ID - it will get pass the Do Not Call. Ticks me off - they could put Joe Blow as the ID on their number and it's gonna get pass the do not call list.
I've also been getting a call from a 1-866 number on my cell phone constantly - no message, just calling ALL the time. I'm ready to chuck both land-line and cell phone!
