Thank you JD!! Lots of useful info I will follow up on. I received 2 calls yesterday on my cell, which is only for emergencies. Didn't answer because # unknown. No message left. I have received calls from some of the other numbers listed in the blog...same story. I am on the Federal & NYS DNC lists but that's pretty much meaningless.
This number just called again, I answered, and after a pause "Tim" cam on the line and proceeded to try and get information out of me. Offering "free" HOME SECURITY" system, says installation is likely free. I asked a question for each question he asks me, Tim said he was calling from HOME PROTECTION of Los Angeles despite the area code being from 360. I asked how they got my number and he said from "one of their marketing partners". I asked which one and he said that would be a question for the "Security Specialist" when he calls me back. To have them call me back he would need my name and other information. As soon as I asked to be off their calling list and again who provided my number he pretty much hung up. They are fishing for leads....
