I too have been called repetedly. My number is unlisted. I asked how they got it and was told my mother. According to her she never talked to them. I asked a lot of questions and got a bunch of lies which I kept catching them in. I called the # from caller ID it rang about 20 times finally some one answered hello. There was loud cheering in the background. I asked who it was repetedly and finally was told the name of the Company (unfortunately I couldn't catch it, but it wasn't Crin...) He was rude and I hung up.
To ensure this company and others don't call you, go to the do not call.gov and register up to 3 phone numbers. Because of a law passed in 2007, it is permanent.
My call came from 401-228-8703 (Crins Consulting on the caller ID). They told me that after completing a survey about smoke alarms a couple weeks ago, I was chosen in a drawing to win a free security system. I never took that survey, but there was a missed call on my phone from the date they claimed: that # was 352-352-0352 (w/ an "unknown name")
I received a call from Crinns Consulting for the first time last night at 8:47 pm. I found this forum after I googled the name, hope this does not continue. I am on the Do Not Call List. Does anyone know who these people are? The number they called from: 401-228-8528
Same thing here with the GE security thing, saying I had taken a survey that I do not remember. Lady called from Crins Consulting 401-228-8507. Then about 20 minutes later they had the technician call, despite me never agreeing to everything. I told the guy I did not want the service and the badgering continued for another few minutes, including continually asking if I owned my home. The caller ID had VMS on the technician call and the number was 401-434-4585. I am also on the do not call list and they have been calling all week.
