These guys call and ask for the owners. They have called a few times
After you answer the call, be ready to say "Hello" 2 or 3 times because they are automated calls waiting to connect you with their scammy sounding weasels.

This is how their latest call went...
Me: Hello?......HELLO?....
Them: Yes, is the owner in?
Me: No, the owner doesn't work out of this location.
This number called at my office and a man wanted to know if we accepted Master Card or Visa. He told me he could get me better rates. I just hung up on him. Do these fools think we were born yesterday???
Our business gets these ALL the time. I ended up here because I search the numbers that come up in the caller ID that clearly aren't local.
This number called and hanged up; I suspect when that happens, it's a pre-spam verification that the number is a live answer. Someone will probably call later and try to pitch us something.
The credit card thing, yeah. Something changed recently, and the CC processing companies are using that as an excuse to call business and try to get them to move their account.
Just got a call from 312-253-7348; caller identified herself as Penny from US Bankcard Services. I asked her to remove us from their call list but I'm sure we'll hear from them again
