I received a call late morning on my cell phone. I could not tell if it was human or robot. He said I had filled out a survey for a Walmart gift card that indicated I was looking for a job. When I asked repeatedly how they got my number I got a few automated sounding replies, or it could have been a very robotic human. Then when I said I did not ever go near Walmart it eventually hung up. Maybe it was confused.
Hung up when I picked up the call. My guess is a robodialer going down a list of local numbers to see which ones will answer. Either no live person was available at the call center or my number has been put into a database so a live person can call back later.
I'm on the donotcall.gov list since 2011 so if it's confirmed as a marketer not excluded by the FTC than the procedure is to file a complaint (888-382-1222).
I answered the phone and there was a long pause then a guy said, "we are calling in regards to the online survey you filled out." I immediately told him I did not fill out a survey and hung-up
Received call from this number this morning, Feb. 21, 2013. I picked up and clearly said "Hello." Robo dialing was waiting for me to say something again to confirm the call was connected. Don't answer.
I also received a call from this number this morning, 2-21-13. I answered and it was a guy stating that he was calling in regards to an online survey I completed for Walmart, of which I stated I was looking for a job. I told him that I hadn't completed a survey and that he must have the wrong number. He said ok, then I hung up.
I called back from an anonymous number, received a recording stating they are WN Positions and that while recently online, I indicated I was interested in employment opportunities. The recording further stated that they are a leading career placement agency. I am thankfully employed and haven't searched for a job nor completed a survey. Not sure how they obtained my number, but hopefully they won't call me again.
