Got a call from this number, 316-300-0000, at 4:44 PM today - and it popped up on my cell phone from Kansas. Area Code 316 is Wichita. Further, my caller ID said it was a person named Ron Gier, who google associated with that majorly sucky SPRINT corporation.
Yes, the same sucky company that lays off thousands of employees at a time, some times right before the holidays, and sold off thousands of network employees to their bedmate, Ericsson. And yes, the same company who bought Nextel for a bizillion dollars and then lost their pants with the sour deal for no other reason than to pay bonus and stock to former Nextel managers and excutives who have now screwed the once powerful and admired Sprint Corporation into the ground. Yes, a wonderful example of American Greed and how to destroy what once was an excellent example of American Business. Sprint used to command a huge amount of respect in the marketplace - remember Candice Bergen and the PIN DROP commercials? But now, it's all been squandered by executives who actually get paid to destroy what was once great. Shame on the FCC for allowing any of this to happen, but, most of all - shame on those individuals at Sprint and their board of directors that knowlingly went down this road. It's a pity, too, since Sprint was founded by good people who actually cared about families and communities. Now, it's all about money. Money. Money. And, they don't care how they get it - they just want it - more and more of it. Not for their employees - but for their executives. What a perfect example of GREED. Shame. Shame. Shame.
If you are getting unwanted calls on your cell phone, use the reject call function on your phone and add this number to the "auto reject list". You've got to be smarter than these telemarketers or whom ever they are.
I got a call from this number while on another call. When I returned the call I got to a "voice mail system" with no options other than to enter an extension. After 3 attempts the call is dropped.
Got a call from the number saying that I could lower my interest rates. I pressed one to play along. Guy told me I had a card with a 3000 dollar credit line, and that it was a MasterCard starting with "5".
I kept avoiding his questions, and asked him to remove my number from his lists.
He then got very graphic, and verbally abusive, and told me in order to remove my number from the list I should "shove my cell phone up my candy a**".
When I told him I wouldn't he kept telling me to finger my pretty p***y, and he would remove the number from the list.
He told me the FCC was recording the call, and that they were calling from experian. He also said his name was Arnold, which is obviously an alias.
He then asked how old I was. I gave him some BS date of birth, and he said that I was about 35. Asked how many times I've been with a man, and that I was obviously experienced, so that it only makes sense that I do what he asked so I could get my number off the list.
I almost died laughing. These guys are such scam artists. He told me that if I didn't do what he wanted, I'd get 10 calls a day from them, so I told him that I looked forward to it, and hung up.
What a joke.
