This rude main said that he was calling to offer me a chance to make money. When I asked how much it would cost, he told me nothing "today". I told him specifically to take me off his calling list he said he was not a solicitor. When I said I would call the attorney generals office he kept talking, when I told him he was required by FCC regulations to remove me from his calling list he got more rude and hung up. When you call back the recording says that it is not in service.
I received the call. When I told the representative that I would check out the company and let him know later if I was interested, he got beligerent, loud and irate.
skippy,
my family too has been contacted by these scam artists! Only the number that came up on the caller id was 702-879-9330. when i googled this phone number the first thing that came up was SCAM. The man at the other end was very rude and claimed to be someone from HUD. He wasnt even asking for me, he wanted my elderly mother in law. When i told him there was no one by that name at this # he got very rude with me and said since i was such a lier that he didnt care he would take my mothers name off the waiting list. trying to make me believe that he was from a government angency. This call was made to my home on Dec. 10th around 2pm. After i thought long and hard about it i realized no government angency would ever call on a Saturday let alone make a call to someone on a HUD waiting list. Today is Dec 12th and he called back again tonight. Instead of argueing with him i just handed the phone to my mother. He got rude with her and insisted that he had talked to her on an earlier occation and said she was recorded. The calls are getting a little scary and i have no idea how to stop them. Really i would rather sue the dude for harrassment but the problem is every time i call that las vegas # it says the person at this number is not available and i have to leave a message in the mailbox then it says the mailbox is full and an error has occured. What should i do?
Got a call few days ago from franklin financials solutions, a woman called saying she saw that i was looking for a job and if am interested in working for the company, so i ask what her name was , she replied am not supposed to tell my name but it is opia , in my mind i was thinking thats strange. but i play along with her little game. i ask her a few questions about the different packages and how much money i have to come up with to join. she did not know anything, told me to listen to some recording and then talk to her superviser not one of them could provide me with any solid information on how to get started they just want my credit card information and i refused to let them have any info on me, i told her to send me an employment package and i will send her a check. for any one that is reading this please do not give out any information without anything in writing.

Wow, these people called me too. Said they were a credit card service business and I could make my living by selling these services to local businesses. They asked for $295 but I told them that I never give my money away to someone who merely calls on the phone. I told them I had to verify their business and if they were on the up and up I would call back. They did give me a number to call back but it is an 800 number. Of course during my verification I found all of this from you good people. I am flooded with calls from this to people claiming I have won $2 to $10 million dollars and all they need is some kind of fee which is usually $400-$500 and they will deliver my money. Sure!!! It is frustrating and I am so tired of it. I don't know how people can live with themselves doing such things to others.
