Caller ID indicated "Not Available", but I answered anyway because it showed my local area code. The female telemarketer stated that the call was from "Positive Energy." I told her to mark me as "Do Not Call."
I don't answer calls from "Unavailable" as this one was. They apparently do not leave messages, but they do call more than once. The do not call registry is a joke!
received call from this tel. no. today. Person first said he was calling to lower my interest rate and in next sentence said he could lower my electric bill and did I see on my electric bill how I could lower it. Then he said that congress just voted to de-regulate the power companies (dah ... that was done in the Bush Administration years ago!). Then he told me his co. name, Positive Energy and if I had my electric bill handy he could go through a comparison step by step with me. I told him I was (and am) swamped with work and could he mail me information. He said he would call back at another time and before I could reply hung up. I'm suspicious of this, especially since he started the call with one statement, quickly switched gears, and then said that congress recently deregulated power companies. That is why I saw your post. I think we both should be highly suspicious of this caller. If he could get some personal information from the bill, maybe he could get even more and steal identity.
