They called me today at 1:17 pm and asked for me by my full name. I asked who was calling and she rattled off a name and a company in broken english, possibly an asian or hispanic accent. She asked me if it was me that she was speaking too and I once again asked who was calling. (I learned from debt collectors calling my phone to never admit to being yourself when people call asking for you unless you know that person or number.) She then said really slow, I think Karen Lopez, and when she paused before repeating the company name again, she disconnected the line. I applied to a non-profit organization off craigslist last month and I think that is the only way they received my cell phone number.
They called my mother's cell phone asking for me by my whole name. My mother said the man who called sound foreign with a filipino accent. She said she asked him if he wanted to leave a message, he said okay. She then asked him to hold while she get a pen, he was not on the line when she returned. She would like to know how did he get her cell phone number.
I'm thinking they poss as a company and post ad on Careerbuilder , I applied for a job and sent my resume which I have done many times before, this time it was odd, they reply to my resume the same day. Of course I have my contact information now I have this 310-425-0907 calling. The job was as posted as Non for profit careers/ Jobs for THE FUTURE IS AFRICA .
