Drawling male voice on indistinct and somewhat damaged recording identifies only as "Kevin". No business name is offered, only the return number 401-230-9602. His long, rambing pitch, carefully peppered with "uhm" pauses, lasts nearly ninety seconds. It's a whole laundry list of home maintenance services, including carpet cleaning, chimney cleaning, power washing, gutter clearing, et al. Absolutely nothing was given for Caller ID beyond "blocked". This same call has been received here repeatedly under identical circumstances, right down to always coming on a Wednesday.
As the man should well know by now, prerecorded sales calls on their own are illegal. Cold sales calls to DNC-registered numbers are illegal. Since January 2004 telemarketers have been required by the FTC to transmit useful Caller ID, meaning at minimum a functioning phone number (CNUM) plus a business name (CNAM) if supported by the CID system.
Complaints elsewhere indicate that, contrary to his phone pitch persona, if reminded of any of the preceding facts he will fly into a rabid rage filled with expletives, vicious insults, and violent threats. It's said he insists among other paranoid theories that federal laws are a crushing conspiratorial burden to his livelihood. By contrast, his cheap attempt at a faltering, folksy appeal aims to fool you into thinking he's delivering his script in real time and maybe is just some small-potatoes local businessman who is unaware of the rules.
The man has been identified elsewhere as Kevin Slusser, a gypsy contractor who has plagued New Englanders for years under several business names. He was cited twice in 2008 by the FCC for his illegal sales calls. Rather than work the jobs himself, he's reportedly likely to send out sloppy stringers to any homeowner stupid enough to accept one of his many offers. Even if he's a sterling model for all day laborers, no one should be giving work to someone who cannot be bothered to obey simple laws.

The owner of this co is a RUDE JERK. This company has been robo calling me for years and their phone # is always blocked from caller ID. I called his phone number 401-230-9602, which he provides in his message and asked to be removed from from his telemarketing list. At that point he becomes rude and starts swearing. Would you do business with a company like that?
I'll be filing an FCC complaint and suggest others do the same http://www.fcc.gov/complaints
This person violates every other law, why would you expect him to abide by the DNC Registry which is an honor system for Legitimate FTC Registered Telemarketers? The registry is just a LIST. It doesn't block calls for anyone.
I happen to know that Kevin Slusser is a coke dealer.
He is now in league with Russell Brand as a violent stalker. Mr. Brand has threatened to punch me in the face with his rings. I
don't even know him but he makes constant psychic contact with me. Bono said he sent him and in that case we'll say it involves antisemitism! Mr. Brand threatens to come find me with Kevin!
Kevin threatened me with rape, "Afraid I'll jump you?"
I'm sorry to hear about your troubles but glad I am not alone in my unhappiness at this behavior. There's more!
Kevin's mother is very frustrated as well! She thinks he is insane.
He must be very sadomasochistic as he knows he can't perform as a floor person!
He lives sometimes with his parents at:
