Caller - "This is Lisa Borse (sp?) - I'm calling regarding a business matter on behalf of Direct TV. So may i speak with the owner or Manager please?" (In flowery voice)
Our Agent: "You've reached their answering service, I'll be happy to take a message."
Caller: "Not really" (in sarcastic voice) and hangs up on agent.
Our customers received a total of 18 calls to this number in June 2014.
Sorry but this is not DIRECTV calling you...these fools did not even spell the corporate name the way DIRECTV spells their corporate/trademark name.
Not to worry - this is the same scammer that calls from the 321 area code but uses a slightly different phone number.
They used to call our office from 321 203-5051.
I have the Digitone call blocker on our office lines. The Digitone is wonderful in that it blocks ENTIRE AREA CODES as well as full telephone numbers I have found it more efficient to BLOCK ENTIRE AREA CODES rather than blocking individual numbers. Telemarketers often change a few digits in their phone number and call back. In this case, ANY NUMBER dialed from in the 321 AREA CODE, WILL BE BLOCKED - BLOCKED FOREVER!
Currently, we have 67 area codes blocked and numerous full phone numbers - it's quiet here!
I should mention that the Digitone also blocks "private calls" and "out of area" calls with no number displayed.
i answered call without saying anything. caller said "this is laura perkins. how are you today?".
she hung up within seconds. i never talked.
she did not know my name.
