got this call right after i put my ph# on Mycollects.com, was going to buy DVD's but decided not to trust this site..good thing I didn't give them my CC #...
after so many calls to my cell phone and them hanging up, they finally spoke to me, claims to be some kind of wholesale company, they knew me by name, so they must be getting it from a data bank or something..
This is the message we've left for the National Do Not Call Registry...
I suggest everyone being bothered by these calls do the same!!!
"We get many, many abusive calls from a man who asks for our son. When we ask who is calling he repeats that he wants our son and gets abusive. When we ask what this is in reference to, he says he's returning a call (not true). We asked again for his name and he gave us "John Sterling" The number he gave us for a callback is 800-866-5626, when called it turns out to be a "Gentleman's..." porno line. We quickly hung up.
We tried to call the phone number as shown on our caller-id and got a recording of a woman's voice that said "The person at extension 317-641-6700 is unavailable, please leave your message after the tone, when done hang up or press the # key. Sorry but the user's mailbox can't accept more messages." And it disconnects the call.
We then searched Infospace's look-up and found on the 800notes.com comments there are numerous complaints that are similar to our call."
Caller ID was 317-641-6700 and the person asked if I knew so-and-so for a job reference. Calling back the number, get the same:
"The person at extension 317-641-6700 is unavailable, please leave your message after the tone, when done hang up or press the # key. Sorry but the user's mailbox can't accept more messages." And it disconnects the call.
