Got two calls from this number. I have a call blocker so they can't ring through and can't get my answering service. My caller Id just says "Florida Call" but on another cite like this one (Who Calls Me) one person says the caller ID reads "Auto Leader." I noticed that one of the people on this cite says the same thing. Yet another cite (Why call Me) reports it as "American Water Quality of Florida." One person on that cite says that this company has been fined for deceptive practices.
I am on the DNC list and they called me today. Time to have them come to my house and beat the Holy Sh#t out of them.. This should solve the problem. The feds need to get of there [***] and make these co. pay. Its time to give up my landline and get a Iphone and use MR. NUMBER! I work nights and days and have health problems and get very little sleep due to my medical problems. It is only time before I end up killing myself or someone else sleeping while I am driving! They want to do water testing and give you a 100.00 wally world card. AKA Walmart!
I think this is a tricky collections company that specializes fact finding.
The caller ID said Auto Leaders 407-792-6137 and I was going to tell them I’m on the ‘Do Not Call” list, as I usually do when I get a telemarketer.
They said someone was going to be in my area testing water and if I booked an appointment for a home water test, I would receive a $100 Wal-mart or Target gift card. I’ve wanted to get my water tested and so, unfortunately, I took the bait. BAD MOVE! I made the appointment and then they transferred me to an appointment setter and they recorded the call. They wanted to verify I owned my home, and how long I’ve been there, and who else lived here etc. The appointment was for the next day. They didn’t show up for the appointment and I received no other calls.
This phone number also called me with the following other caller ID numbers: v60612044400039 and v60412012600039. When I checked back over my other calls I noticed that I kept getting calls with no one on the phone and the same strange caller ID format that always started with a “v”.
Other caller ID numbers: v06081235200024 with phone 386-524-0114
I know there have been others, but I didn’t answer and they didn’t leave a message.
I’m surprised this worked on me, but with the economy, the collections agencies are getting more tricky.
These guys called me today... boy you're gonna love this!
My husband interviewed for a job with these types of people, called "appointment setters." They send someone out to 'test' your water and then try to sell you on a water filtration system - one that a friend of mine actually, unfortunately, fell for, and has been complete and utter crap for her house. Needless to say, my husband never took the job, but at least I know a little bit about how these guys work.
Anyway... we've been getting robocalls for the past few weeks from these guys. Normally I just don't answer the phone (no caller ID, let the machine filter calls), but today I was nearby it, and I've been waiting for an important call so I answered it. Waited for the option to speak to a rep, waited all of one second before someone picked up on the line. Sounded like someone working from home - music loud in the background and the guy sounded half asleep.
I told him we've been getting the robocalls and don't appreciate it, we'd like to be removed from the list. He tried to go into his whole routine to try and offer me free water testing, told him not interested, just want off the list. He started going on about the free $100 gift card, still didn't get a hint. I started to tell him I understand it's his job, but we don't want the calls, we're not interested, and he started yelling over me so I told him if we get any more calls, I'll report the company to the FCC. He told me I can't because they're not selling anything, told him I would for harassing phone calls since they won't quit. So he said "Okay okay, I'll take you off the list, now lay off the drugs" and hung up. HAH.
