If you do not want to be called simply tell the telemarketer to 'Put you on the Do not call list' and they will not phone back. You can also call the number and leave your number to be removed from any future calling lists.
PS - WE JUST CALLED THE *REAL* MERCURY NEWS AND REPORTED THESE IMPOSTORS PRETENDING TO BE THEM.
First we called the police and reported them.. Then we called verizon wireless and had them blocked.. But not before we called the REAL san jose mercury news and gave them the number and info on these impostors.. **NOW the REAL mercury news is CALLING THEM!!!** Yes, ou heard right.. We spoke with a rep for mercury news and they said the are definitely calling them and getting this harassment figured out.
Its not hard to connect the dots.. go to the mercury news website and look under the contact list.. nowhere on that list does this 0182 number appear.
We asked mercury news if they were associated with this number and we come to find out that are definitely NOT associated with this number.
I advise EVERYONE to call and report them to the mercury news..
We are going to file for harassment tomorrow morning and REALLY find out who these people are..
